U.S. Economy

Our economy is like an athlete on steroids: in order to continue achieving results we chose to get doped, consequently making the whole thing so artificial that we do not even know what is right from what is wrong.
Economy is an exact science, where every action is known to produce exact reaction, and does not allow for any artificial or foreign elements to enhance it's performance.
The real question at this point in time is how do we take ourselves off of performance enhancing stimulants. And the answer can be found in real life, observing any athlete that is making an attempt to clean himself, and the result is: he will neither be a successful athlete anymore nor will he cleanse his body to the point of being able to get back to normal life. He is ruined.
So, we have two choices: keep taking steroids and in order to sustain the profit race keep blowing the bubble (that will eventually explode), or go cold turkey and quit doping ourselves, which will take us a couple of decades back and will make the bubble look shriveled and parched. The latter one can not be done peacefully. The first one will result in loss of peace.
I'm sure every athlete that was ever taking steroids is asking himself that same stupid question: "Why in the hell did I do that?" All too late.
