We can't, unfortunately. Obama will lose in 2012 and then SS and Medicare will be gone and neo-feudalism will be the country's fate. It should last a good 10-20 years before the entire decrepit system comes crumbling down in bloody chaos. Of course by then, the ones who profited the most out of sucking the blood from the American corpse will be dead or retired.
Well, they might be still alive because one day quite soon wealth (ie the blood of the poor) will be able to buy longer life through genetics. Anyway their descendants will be living well on the Riviera while our descendants starve and kill one another in the pit of despair that the Bad Place will become.
