No. Half your population would be spending all its time and effort keeping a lid on the other half. And developing your own financial and manufacturing and transportation industry would require capitol - capitol you would not have because you would have to send a good part of the money received for your exports out of the country to those providing those financial and transportation and manufacturing services you had no interest in developing to begin with.

IF that is your opinion, you really are "out of touch" with REALITY. inbred, SELF-important,UNthinking, PREJUDICE does that to people.

"Reality" and "stand watie" have never come into contact with each other, not that I've seen in all my years of posting on this fourm.

Now, where's the book?
