Endurance

As the US government continues to embezzle our federal taxes for its corporate clients, it is only a matter of time before an underground economy develops among previously law-abiding citizens. Robbed of their pensions, healthcare, and savings, many will soon find there is no alternative available, especially for poor and working-class stiffs--including senior citizens. As Congress contemplates stealing Social Security and Medicare out from under the Baby Boom retirees, crime as a means of survival is no longer going to be the sole province of urban minorities; rather, it will unavoidably become a new way of life.
