Overworked, Underpaid & Increasingly Homeless. Is The US Following EU?

America somehow just isn't the same place it was I remembered 20 years ago. Greece, Spain, and quite a bit of the EU has been hit hard also and I have watched this unfold in sorrow, now it's almost surreal seeing my own nation start to follow this trend. I guess it just feels odd seeing it here after being indoctrinated as a child that the nation you live in is somehow indestructible.
