[Amin001]

So NAFTA does exist?

A single currency, a North American Union?

Interview on the Daily Show


Interview on Larry King


Say hello to globalization friends.

 

[ParkCungHee]

Its gonna happen if we don't do something about the border.

 

[Stewbert 08]

Evo Morales was a way better interview.

Jon should invite them both back for a Latin American Presidential Cage Match a la Thunderdome. "Dos hombres entran, UNO SALE!"

 

[CIVPhilzilla]

Obviously he's calling for a NAU. It's a sweet deal for a third world nation to get joined with the sole remaining superpower. It won't happen for the reason the EU has been dragging its feet to add former Soviet Republics to its union.

 

[Elrohir]

Great, now the North American Union nuts will never shut up.

 

[GarretSidzaka]

Say hello to Strife with the EU

 

[Damnyankee]

ehh, its not going to happen. Of course, every single Mexican would want it. Mexico would become a utter parasite on the US economy.

 

[brainpan]

Kill me if you must, but I'm not sure this isn't a good idea.

Mexico is a lot more like us than most want to admit, and if we could help them develop their IMMENSE natural resource reserves and cut their corruption down to our much lower but still horrendous levels, I think all sides would benefit.

Then again, union with Canada is simply a no-brainer. That would probably be an easier sale than USA/Mexico inc.

 

[MjM]

I would never be in the same country as Mexico.

 

[brainpan]

Say hello to globalization friends.

You're a few decades late with that comment.

But OK. Hello Globilization Friends!

I am having flashbacks to saturday morning wrestling on univision.

 

[Bugfatty300]

No thanks, Vicente. We already got the half we wanted.

 

[downtown]

So NAFTA does exist?

Uh...yes. Clinton signed that into law in the 1990s.

 

[Bill3000]

I'm surprised that many of the libertarians here are anti-globalization...

 

[Arwon]

The combination of libertarianism and "CLOSE THE BORDERS" sentiment is hilarious.

 

[Bill3000]

The combination of libertarianism and "CLOSE THE BORDERS" sentiment is hilarious.

And ******ed, since laissez-faire ain't laissez-faire unless there's free trade. Well, ******ed, hilarious, same difference.

 

[JollyRoger]

We need to supress the free flow of labor, goods, and services, comrades.

 

[brainpan]

I'm surprised that many of the libertarians here are anti-globalization...

Most of them seem to be extremely right-wing for libertarians. I think at least a few are just Republicans that would rather be called something different.

 

[Stewbert 08]

The combination of libertarianism and "CLOSE THE BORDERS" sentiment is hilarious.

Libertarianism is for White People Only.

Union with Canada.. but where would we put the capital?
