The point which apparently was not adequately conveyed by me is that a road does not signal some major event in globalization.
It's just a road, but to some on this thread it appears to be the end of American sovereignty and some deep evil conspiracy.
It's not the first nor the last road we're going to build in this country. Roads are good things, not a reason to get one's panties in a knot.
If the road was the ONLY thing that was going on, imo, there wouldn't be an issue. But, it's not.
