    “I met a traveler from an antique land
    Who said: “Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
    Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
    Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
    And wrinkled lip and sneer of cold command,
    Tell that its sculptor well those passions read,
    Which yet survive, stampt on these lifeless things,
    The hand that mockt them and the heart that fed:
    On the pedestal these words appear:
    ‘My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
    Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!’
    Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
    Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
    The lone and level sands stretch far away.

    Poncho thanks for posting the article. It is totally true. I cannot argue against one point he made.

    >As I predicted in the early years of this new century, “the United States will be a third world country in 20 years.”

    Not exactly. The US will revert to a 19th century British economy in 20 years.
