I got this e-mail, and like Brad...I thought I would start something and watch it go....
The New Plan
1) The US will apologize to the world for our "interference" in their
affairs, past & present. You know, Hitler, Mussolini and the rest
of them 'good old boys'. We will never "interfere" again.
2) We will withdraw our troops from all over the world, starting with
Germany, South Korea and the Philippines. They don't want us
there. We would station troops at our borders. No more sneaking
through holes in the fence.
3) All illegal aliens have 90 days to get their affairs together and
leave. We'll give them a free trip home. After 90 days the
remainder will be gathered up and deported immediately,
regardless of who or where they are. France would welcome them.
4) All future visitors will be thoroughly checked and limited to 90
days unless given a special permit. No one from a terrorist
nation would be allowed in. If you don't like it there,
change it yourself, don't hide here. Asylum would not ever be
available to anyone. We don't need any more cab drivers.
5) No "students" over age 21. The older ones are the bombers. If they
don't attend classes, they get a "D" and it's back home baby.
6) The US will make a strong effort to become self sufficient energy
wise. This will include developing non polluting sources of
energy but will require a temporary drilling of oil in the Alaskan
wilderness. The caribou will have to cope for a while.
7) Offer Saudi Arabia and other oil producing countries $10 a barrel
for their oil. If they don't like it, we go someplace else.
8) If there is a famine or other natural catastrophe in the world, we
will not "interfere". They can pray to Allah or whomever, for seeds,
rain, cement or whatever they need. Besides' most of what we
give them is stolen or given to the army. The people who need it
most get very little, if any anyway.
9) Ship the UN Headquarters to an island some place. We don't
need the spies and fair weather friends here. Besides, it would
make a good homeless shelter or lockup for illegal aliens.
10) All Americans must go to charm and beauty school. That way,
no one can call us "Ugly Americans" any longer.
If you feel this is the winning plan, vote yes and send it on.

nope, that's when things get really ugly. we "prefer" members (and custom members in particular!) to have their location field filled in at sign-up.
soooo, you're quite a bit behind!

Back to the topic in the first post of the thread. I'm in 100% Add to charm school English lessons. We ought to be able to speak our own language correctly and spell and use it correctly as well.
You will find this position in political science under isolationism. We are not in too good of shape right now to go cold turkey, but we cold use a strong dose of isolationism. It will dump the economy in the toilet right away. In the long run, our country would be better off. What politician can you think of that would dare run on this platform? I don't think you will find any. This is why we will never see this philosophy. Ross Perot was close.
As far as the 914s are concerned, the way I see it is that most of the aftermarket stuff is made here already. And the cars are already here, so no money goes out of the country (or doesn't need to) because of 914s. Forget about that new 996 you've been wanting. The only way isolationism works is to place large tariffs on imports.
Overall, it would be an economic diaster for a quarter of a century, but after that we would have a quality of life second to none.
The whole business is a pie-in-the-sky. HOWEVER, I hereby declare my candidacy for President. Vote for me in 2004. Send money. I will close the door.

What? Who better to advocate being an isolated country than a biggoted narrow minded anti-diversity type? Well forget the nazi. I'm sure I can dig up an isolationist somewhere. BTW, don't they do that at the party convention after the nomination? I need to choose or establish a political party. I think I need Brad's help now.
