Question; What is the root cause of our financial dilemma?
 

Before you go half cocked
Take a moment and think before you answer.

Never mind politics and the election.
Never mind the candidates.
Never mind our personal biases.
What's the ROOT cause?

The love of money.

ummm.

I am going to guess the entire system of money as it represents a means to barter with others, without having any real value or use other than the value we assume it to be?

Or something?

People using money that they don't have..and signing on for things that they can't afford in the long run...I.e. credit, and/or mortgage..

And what exactly would prompt a person to do these things???

Greed, and corporate profits

Barak Obama

Kevin Federline

Perfect;

You ask a question and specify

Never mind politics and the election.
Never mind the candidates.
Never mind our personal biases.
What's the ROOT cause?

And what do you get? :(
