The issue of over-spending by US municipalities has been evident for a long time but has also been overshadowed the European sovereign crisis. But in a sense both crises are similar in that participants overspent and were supported in doing so by the l...
I think James Cameron is the real moron here Apparently, Hollywood director James Cameron of “Avatar” and “Titanic” fame couldn’t contain himself when he saw the Deepwater Horizon disaster unfolding.
