Right now, there's an active thread with all the GOP/Bush supporters giving each atta-boys about how Bush has had to endure so much and is really a great president - up there with Washington & Lincoln.
No one seems to understand that the game is up. 500 years of European hegemony over the upper 2/3rds of the N.American continent is coming to an end. Our ancestors practically wiped out native indigenous peoples, but now they're in the process of taking it all back.
The much more interesting question is what happens during the transition? We know the two biggest beneficiaries of open-borders are businesses and politicians. While investing in businesses that benefit from income divergence (ie upper-class professionals vs low-income servants) is pretty straight forward, I'm still puzzling through the political angle.
We know corruption is widespread in Latin America, so as that trends continues here, how does one position themselves to partake? It might be profitable to set up a public interest group that advocates open borders and/or minority set-asides in order to get financing from Latino political blocks.
Again, as I've referred to on other posts, the working model is California. What happened here will happen to the rest of the US. Deconstructing and analyzing the various pieces could yield tremendous returns by turning on others as to the potential opportunities.
As far as the Bush congratulations thread, I think we could have done a lot worse. If W has one strength, IMO, it's his Christianity; if he has one weakness his Christianity should be less of the "let's all get along" variety and more of the "kick their @sses out of the temple" type.
