I don't expect him to last very ling with all those nations pushing in around down there anyway, Let's see: Chile, Argentina, Australia, France, New Zealand, Norway, and the United Kingdom have current claims, and the United States, Peru, Brazil, Russia, Spain, and South Africa, also have claims that are not in effect due to treaties.

Talking about a shitty mistake. His troops are trained by the Stasi and armed by Orussia. I do actually feel a little sorry for him with all his sons vying for his place. Somehow with all that statements, he is probably have Alzheimer's disease. Then again, he reaped what he sow right?

They seem to be drooling at the prospect of having this sort of world: http://ng.neocron.com/
A collection of transnational corporations and plutocrats that flatline the rule-of-law, republics, city-states... no citizens, just "consumer units".

The regulators didn't regulate, the government repealed, and the fed conspired. The system broke, and the same people who did it are still running it. Do a search for Citigroup Plutonomy if you want to see some scary stuff. Here's one part of the memos: http://www.scribd.com/doc/6674234/Ci...-Report-Part-1

If he really wants to save money, give the civil servants temporary paycuts and reimburse them when the economy booms. You don't treat the people who work for you like trash - even HR managers in Big Corp knows that basic rule.

I think the spotlight on all these spoiled brats and thugs of the Royal Family is not going to do the little "Marie Antoinettes, etc" any favors.

Republicans are essentially enacting the old "starving the beast" strategy, and scratching the backs of their corporate donors while doing it. To use Grover Norquist's famous quote: "I don't want to abolish government. I simply want to reduce it to the size where I can drag it into the bathroom and drown it in the bathtub."

I remember the last good Republican politician was Bill Clinton (other than that intern scandal). It seems that the GOP is really heavily bogged by Big Corp. What he is doing is good for profits of the private companies, and indirectly, growth of the state, but it is going to screw everyone living there because : 1. The companies now have the right to underpay workers and overwork them. 2. The companies can now sack workers and sue them to prevent them from lobbying for severance pay. 3. The companies are able to reduce working conditions to Victorian era. Heck, they can even go Cambodia-style where the worker (mostly child labour over there) is chained to the machine and worked to death. Anyone living in Wisconsin is so fucked. Nonetheless, this is a good time to prove that "American Gun Rights" has its uses : Wisconsin's Walker to absent Democrats: 24 hours to return Quote:
If they leave, it doesn't look good on the Democrats. But then, it is a good political move to force this little spoilt kid to meet at the negotiation table.
