Oh sure if we open the borders here, then the rest of the world should too. No more passports, no more borders, and come to think of it no more money, no more Govt's, and no more problems. It's hell on Earth!
No, just us.
The more mass we have the better since matter is energy.
That means open borders and "one" America, ect.
I can assure you there's no "freer" way to absorb the massive imbalances.
Arrest the CEOs who have and continue to offshore manufacturing jobs to other countries and charge them with treason. Implement a tariff, Smoot-Hawley style. Bin Laden is dead, time to leave Afghanistan. Iraq is a quagmire, would like to see the US out of there too but I know they won't leave because they need the oil. This country needs a balanced budget amendment but the Republicans won't alienate their rich donors by raising taxes on them (and secretly neither will Democrats). Let's face it, those who make decisions are rich, so why would they vote to raise taxes on themselves? We will hear a lot in the coming years, in fact it will be rammed down our throats by the mainstream media, that so called "entitlement" programs, as if they are generously being handed out by the government as opposed to being funded by a payroll tax on the working class, like Social Security and Medicaid will need to be "scaled back." This will include any and all truly heinous options including raising the retirement age to 70, increasing the payroll tax, and of course reducing Medicaid to a "in name only" system, which is to say recipients will be forced to shell out the majority of the money required for their healthcare.
We need to end the Federal Reserve. Why shouldn't the US be able to print its own money? Why do we instead have the Federal Reserve print money and then loan it to government at interest? Time to cut out the middleman.
Repeal NAFTA because No American Finds This Amusing.

You're not going backwards. You know that because you have evolution.
Why go backwards and more protective when freedom clearly ends in less oppression.
Big John it is entirely impossible to pay the debt. It can't not be done. The only way it might be done is to place value on grains of sand, and if you did that very thing Congress would screw that up, and the Sahara would be in debt. I could live with out Mass though. In fact i tink we should give Mass to China for 1/2 the debt.
I'm seeing a lot of interesting ideas, but a lot more voting going on.
