....Fucking StiffTM presidency the oligarchy will get what they want: Mexico.
Yay, oligarchy!
But there's a flip side to this, fuckwit 1%ers, it's a town called Sinaloa where the most ruthless Mexcian drug cartel is based and became a force to contend with because Mexico concentrated the wealth.
And one of the most sought after commodities of this organization is guns.
But here's the deal, shitstains, we have more guns in private hands in this country than any privatized security force can ever muster. Think about this, you fucking walking wads of phlegm, think hard because if your plan succeeds and unemployment skyrockets to 25% you can bet your perfumed and powdered asses that most of you and your families will become distant rumors in the civil unrest that follows. And unless you want to unleash the furies from Hell don't even think about touching the 2nd Amendment.
Think hard Kooooocccccccchhhhhhhhptuisuckers, think hard.

(13,582 posts)effort to disarm the population is much more likely to come from the right. If they think they are powerful enough, you can count on it. It's not like you could ever find historical examples of fascist regimes or oligarchy's that allowed the citizens to go around armed.
It's the plan they only discuss among the most trusted power brokers at the top. They hope to beat down the middle class and have a huge peasant population to exploit. It's the kind of thing that never works or has never lasted for long anywhere else. They think that this time, they will be strong enough and ruthless enough to make it work.
I think they're wrong. I think that especially in this country, we won't stand for much more. It's a matter of the people the Republicans have duped since the 80's waking up. The "I got mine" middle to upper middle class is going to realize they are being screwed too. One they don't got theirs anymore, the shit hits the fan and stays hit!

And I wouldn't put it past Romney to have designs on the literal Mexico.
