Bush plan estimated forty percent of employees may not show up for work.

The "Firewall Plan" is better..

Start off with total end to folks coming in to america, after the human-to-human transmission gets going in, say China. With a total end, not one person here would get sick!

Water that idea down ONLY as needed.

eg., emergency medical items still fly in. But use "blind trading"... foreign plane brings medicines.. crew unloads at empty area, retreats to plane. USA workers emerge from building, get the boxes, put out some stuff for export. Foreign crew emerges, gets boxes, flies off.

================================================================================
BETTER THAN HAVING FORTY PERCENT OF ECONOMY SHUT DOWN
Ending most imports will hurt some businesses,.... but less than the Bush plan... which forsees forty percent of the economy shut down by employees not at work. Firewall Plan, businesses shut...maybe 25%?... those needing imports. Bush, 40%.

Firewall Plan is similar to the closed nations seen in the past... Japan, Burma, Tibet.

MORE FOOD THAN WE NEED?
our nation grows more food than is needed, IIRC. Oil could enter with "blind trading" at tankers.

The idea of not one birdflu death ....is very appealing.
