Is he actually proposing... a New World Order?

Geeze. I wonder who’d sit at the head of *that* table?

Well, it didn't work last time they tried it - so let's try it again.

And the definition of insanity is...

The ‘new deal’ concept went hand in hand with world war.

It’s sad to hear that from Prime Minister Brown. The UK must innovate and produce, and we should do the same. Then we can buy peculiarly British things from them. They can buy peculiarly American things from us. ...same with China and other countries. That’s how true free trade should really work between friendly nations—not as a tool of slavery between conniving nations. There will be no empire.

What an idiot. Even 90% of the commies in this country know the New Deal was a total failure. Of course, given England’s tendancy to embrace failed economic models, I guess it makes sense.

Both my brother and uncle, who are accountants, told us recently that, beginning next year, all accounting in the United States and all business models will have to adhere to international standards.

There will be a New World Order, and it is coming faster than we think.

We can do a Global New Deal, then wait for World War Three to pull everyone out of the resulting Global Depression.
