An interesting article - surely hope it doesn't come true!

The Russians would have to commit a massive amount of their millitary if they could even hope to reclaim Alaskan soil as their own, and they know it. Unless they nuke us. Wishful think on the part of the Russkie economist.

ES, if AK went back to the Russians, America or whats left of it in this scenario would lose alot of natural resources as well as one of the largest shipping hubs between North America and the Orient. So how is that a good idea?

And by shear numbers alone, if the Mesicans wanted to they could over run Texas, Southern California, heck all of the border states. Wait they have been doing that for years.

Lizbud, a second civil war might be what is needed to fix what has gone wrong with the experiment that is the United States of America. Most Republics dont last more then 200 years if I remember my history correctly.

The Russkies have to open a window (global warning) and need a samovar to whiz in.....


Not likely.

Indeed.

It was more amusing than anything. Can I see any New England states not only seceding but joining the EU? No way!

We may not all agree on everything, but we are one country.

That means the Patriots and Bosox have to play in another division?

Maybe the Celtics will join the EU?

Not happening, as well.

Seeing how at each others throats we are? I call it 50/50. 100% if Obama goes after the 2nd Amendment like he has in the past. Montanta, Texas, Vermont and Idaho are ready NOW.


Unless things RADICALLY change, it is almost as unevitable as the sun rising in the East. Our economy simply cannot go on like this forever. When it tanks this time, it is REALLY going to tank and the urban masses are going to be in a bad way... I feel this way because of the way our "leaders" are handling this crisis. MAKING new money?!???! So what happens when the shoe drops and the same amount of goods and services chase 10 times the amount of dollars? (Weimar Republic, only worse) This is going to happen because Obama's plan of putting people to work doing things that the market is not demanding, does ZERO to help in the long term.

Have none of the people in DC ever taken an economics class???
