Yup, sure does.
...and compared to some bum living in a cardboard box over a steam grate in NYC, I look like a GAZZILLIONAIRE.
One of the factors the author notes in the financial downfall of those seven states is the importation of energy supplies.
The sad thing about that is 4 of those 7 could be net exporters, or at least produce significant portions of their own supplies. California and Florida could, obviously, allow drilling for oil and gas all over the place.
North Carolina and New Jersey also have significant deposits of at least gas. N. Carolina also has coal. Ohio, Michigan and Illinois, I think, also have large coal deposits.
Each of these states could make a major difference in their own futures if they would just take advantage of their own resources. They won’t, of course, being controlled by people determined on economic suicide.
“To make matters worse the UNaccountable financial EUROCRATS don’t have their junk backed up by armed forces.”
Sure they do! Ours.
You're right in the bigger picture. America's finest are inadvertently USED to prop up these international finance cretins, the UNaccountable Eurocrats and the UNaccountable bureaucrats at UNaccountable HQ...the UN.
Yep, the green economic terrorists have gained control in the states you mention.
