and why it is a problem to harmonize the economies of the three countries to create a more powerful economic power -- what are you afraid of? do you really think for one minute that the United States does not lead the way in such an arrangement?

why it is a problem to harmonize the economies of the three countries

It is the lying duplicity of the people doing this that is the problem. The unconstiutional fashion in which they are doing it, is the problem. The fact that 'harmonizing' with other countries lowers our standard of living, and violates our rights is the problem. The fact that 'harmonizing' destroys our American culture for liberty, is the problem.

The United States won't 'lead the way'. Individuals in power might get some advantage, but there is NO advantage for the citizens whose indiviudal rights are threatened by this arrangement.
