your position is worth having . . . It’s worth being forthright about enough to answer the question

Q, eocnomic system is one thing; political system is another. I am for responsible economic and political system. One that doesn't undermine national security.

If a business faulters because the workers are not doing their job, it doesn't mean the business is bad. It means it needs fixing. Criticizing unethical free trade and ineffective govenrment is not a call not for replacement, it's a call to bring both back to within social norms and roles that serve the best interests of the society.

A government that doesn't enforce laws is not doing its job of protecting the nation, but is aiding those who break the law. And a business that engages in illegal practices is mafia! Is this what we have become? A country of irrepsonsible governments and mafia? When it comes to illegal immigration, there are strong elements of both, and our national health and security are seriously undermined.

We talks the talk but we don't walk the walk. And other countries see that. How can we sell our system to the rest of the world (unless we shove it down their throat) if we say we are a country of laws when we have 13 million illegals with enough illegal jobs to sustain them, and a government that looks the other way?

Does illegal mean anything any more? Or are we going to play the Clinton game and say "depends what you mean by 'illegal'?"

Kosta . . . dancing about is not answering the question.

What would you CALL the “responsible political/economic system in the national interest?”

What label would fit it?
