Well, seeing as how most people wouldn't want to do anything illegal, it'll never happen.... so I guess I'll just be like everyone and just sit back and watch the whole thing fall apart when Asia calls in all the loans we have from them that we could never hope to pay off....Quote:

Sure, why not???? Many of our politicians are for sale to the highest bidder, why would we be surprised if they all got together and sold the entire country to the highest bidder????? As for the Amero coin that would become the North American version of the Euro???? What is it's metal content, and where can I get one, it looks kewl and I'm something of a novice coin collector anyway....
So, which would be worse? A country being sold to the highest bidder or one that is repo'd by the Asians for non-payment of debts?????
Yep, the Amero will just be one more step in the steady march toward one-world government. As a matter of fact, as I think about it, that may be the reason for the dumbing down of America. To bring it more in line with the economies of lesser nations so the transition will be smoother. Maybe that's the reason there has been little or nothing done about the proliferation of illegal aliens.
Like many on this site, I, too, served my country - wouldn't take a million dollars for the experience and wouldn't give a nickle for another. Raised and trained by WWI and WWII vets. Eagle Scout, weaned on 'God and Country' - a hard-shell conservative, not Democrat, not Republican. And sadly what I have watched evolve are the ones who dodged, protested, and evaded serving are the ones running the country. Those who did their country's bidding, have either sold out to the wishes of their "bosses" or are not given the time of day.Quote:

What happened to the "Silent Majority"? or did it really ever exist? Sad
If anyone actually wants to try and do something other than vent,it would be best to pick one issue and work together to decide the best way to bring about a change. I personally would like to see something done about petroleum prices,as right now that's what is hurting me the most. I'm being told that it's the speculaters that are driving up the prices, well then I see a need to put caps on that. Opec constantly raising prices is enough,don't you think? Thismight be a good time to get together,come up with agood plan and work to get it implemented. Hank
Well said Hank. and if i may add to it. The food prices is what is hurting my family the most. thank goodness that my hubby has a company gas card or he would not be able to get to work. But the money we spend a month at food lion is twice what our mortgage is. We have not had a cost of living increase in 3 years. We are now forced to go to a food pantry 2 times a month because our lights and water bill is getting higher and higher. How long does our government think that we can as hard working citizens carry this load on our backs. this is insanity when you get a government official get on the national news and say that the economy is in a slow down. I doubt if they know or even give a shit that milk is at 5.50 a galllon and everything that has wheat, dairy, or is trucked in is outrageous. But then WHY should they care. They do not have to suffer like the average american does. And please do not get me started on what it cost to get my son a physical to play a sport. :(
The one thing that I have to say about this is that we as a nation are letting the politicians and lawyers take away what ever freedoms that our forefathers have fought for and paid for with their own blood. Now these same politicians and lawyers are trying to organize the world government to finish the process. If we allow that to happen we will loose what freedoms we have left. When I go to the polls I always vote for the person who doesn't fear the fact that I want to take care of myself and my family. It's really too bad that the majority of Americans can't get together as a nation of people and take our country back but most people will not agree on what they truly want.
Just remember that our freedoms were paid for with blood and if we give those freedoms up, they will have to be re-earned by the spilling of more blood. The world government that politicians are working so hard to achieve will have its own constitution which will supersede our own constitution so everything that we have fought for as a country will be lost.
This in my opinion is the first thing that we should fight against and the Democrats trying to disarm us is all a part of their plan. Once they have taken away our defenses they can just load us on trains if they want to.

There are so many things that the Democrats stand for that I do agree with. The right to choose being one of them but they also want us to become dependant on the government with their health care and welfare issues. A nation that is dependant on their government is doomed.
