I don't disagree that the issues you point out are alarming, but the fabric of society is crumbling around us. I think those issues are the symptoms of this disease, no the disease itself. The collapse of the moral foundation that we were founded on is going to hasten this country's demise faster than somebody picking the lettuce and washing the dishes you wouldn't touch in a million years.

I don't disagree with your assertion either but, if we lose our national sovereignty (which is what FTAA will do) then all bets are off. Raging social issues of our time take a far back seat to maintaining our Constitutional God given rights, preserving our borders from criminals and TERRORISTS!, maintaining some sort of economic base, etc. I can't say it enough....this open border/FTAA/illegal immigration problem, if not solved absolutely turns us into a banana republic.
