Nanny... it is nearly impossible for someone to stay at a hotel in America without being touched by undocumented workers. It is impossible to visit a grocery chain or a retail chain without thanking NAFTA's authors. No man is an island, and that can be said for nation-states as well. Combined with the amount of debt the US has, along with its sinking dollar, it is virtually a death-sentence for the DOW (not to mention plans to expand NAFTA) for the borders to be military-policed in America... the notion of a border between two nation-states is being slowly faded away by the demands of the people. Although the US middle-class might show some decline, the overall population of North America will see a rise in living standards as anti-immigration rules are removed. There are already more people in California (many new residents) than in all of Canada. So what will a military show at the border gates achieve at this late stage of the game? It's only sword-rattling. Social services will have to increase in the US because of AGING ANGLO BABYBOOMERS... and the new guest workers and undocumented aliens will likely be the ones hired to change the bedpans. Globalism and free-trade blocs are the new way, some say the "third way" to lasting stability and world enlightenment.

Let's see if I have this right. Your solution to the fiscal recklessness of our free spending politicians is to erase any notion of borders and let the world displace our culture and heritage so as to make good on bad political promises. Do I have that right? If so you are naive in the extreme. This is like a patient checking into a hospital to get a brain transplant as a remedy for migraine headaches.

If America completely threw open her borders with no restrictions on immigration as you advocate, what would stop a high population communist country like China from doing the “Mexican Thing” and flooding our shores with hundreds of millions of their people with the intention of literally taking over America by sheer numbers--without firing a shot? Talk about conducting a war on the cheap! Further, what's to prevent new waves of terrorists from seizing on the ensuing mass chaos in the country from making good on their promise to kill millions of our citizens with WMDs?

Moreover, what you foolishly propose on an economic level would produce the exact opposite of your intended hopes of spurring capitalism, free trade and prosperity. It would result in oppressive socialism, the destruction of America’s middle class and, eventually, the dissolution of America itself and every thing this country stands for. And the world would be far, far poorer for it. In fact, a global dark-age would likely set in for centuries. Perhaps that is your agenda after all.

But really I would like you to point out one nation in the history of mankind which disregarded its sovereignty that ever lasted very long. Oh and by the way, is America going to be the only country that is expected to go along with your mad neo-con experiment to dissolve our national sovereignty? I don’t see any other countries out there standing in line for this. In fact the rest of the world seems pretty keen on protecting their own interests often at the expense of America.

Finally among your many wild misconceptions and delusions is the ridiculous notion that centralizing power on a global scale somehow promotes world prosperity. Aside from the fact that this is deleterious to America’s self-interests, centralized power has been shown time and again, in both the business sector and government, to be a grossly inferior mode of management compared to decentralized structures. Any such World or Super-Regional government would by nature be an unresponsive, corrupt, top heavy pyramid stew of bureaucrats that would operate by payoffs and bribes. But it’s nice to get an insight into the mind of a demented one-world pseudo elitist, such as yourself, and how your loony contingent views the future of America.

You are a piece of work, pal. As for me, I wish for the death of the DOW if that means the destruction of the evil elite behind their their walls and body guards. I'll garantee you that I will get by no matter what because I know what it means to be poor monetarily. It's kind of like what a woman here in Georgia told her granddaughter when she asked her about the Great Depression. "It didn't mean much to us because we could not get any poorer than we already were." They got by while all the unproductive speculators were jumping out of windows from 20 floors up. I'll be cheering when totalitarians like George Sorrells and Warren Buffet do the same. The revolution is coming pal. Freedom, the US Constitution, and my culture are too important for me and a whole lot of other folks to kneel down and kiss your ring.
