23. NOLA is NOLA - we're talking the USA
Once again, where is the tax base to operate government coming from? You don't think the whole right-wing would have a REAL wake-up call to see Eastern European storming our gates? Think of
all the military, police officers and just generally angry people who would confront them. It
won't be a civil war, it would be a civil slaughter.

The vast majority of even right-wing Republicans love their country. Would they sit back to see
it overrun by internationals or even nationals wanting to overthrow it? No, they wouldn't. Bush
and Cheney are sociopaths. They're powerful, but they're the decided minority. There are many
more calm heads with more power than they have.
