I'm Jewish, and I have no malcontent for Muslims. I realize that there is a minority of Muslims who garner a lot of attention due to their hatred for Jews and Westerners in general, but that the majority of Muslims/Arabs are simply regular, good, peaceful people. Do the ordinary people in Saudi Arabia look at Jews in the same way, know we don't want violence with Arabs and that unfortunately a zealous minority causes a lot of issues. Or is there a general sense of contempt for Jews and Israel?

Have any post WWII Western/post-industrial economies collapsed as a result of debt or inflation?

As a liberal type of guy I often look at talk of hyperinflation and debt crises in general as a lot of hot air. However, I also understand theoretically how extreme debt can cause a number of problematic issues, including high levels of inflation. What are some real world examples of Western/Industrialized economies that succumbed (or almost succumbed) to hyperinflation in the post-WWII era?

So let's say we must cut government spending. IMO we should cut off federal funding for states that vote against spending, since they want smaller government. This would probably start with farm subsidies to mid-western states like OK. The free market will provide America with enough food right? What would you cut first?

Would prosecuting the ring leaders of the biggest banks, or breaking the too big to fail banks up have a significant impact on the economy? Or is Holder just lying...again?
