Let's get on our knees and pray not. There would be way more than 600,000 this time.

They do say, the USA is getting over populated. There is not enough food being farmed, to supply us all, because cost are to high to farm and make a profit.

Deport the 20 million illegals would be a far better way to do it!

What state would you rather live in, a solvent vs insolvent?

Insolvent: Too much debt, needs to borrow more to meet financial obligations

Solvent: A state of a company being able to service its debt and meet its other obligations, especially in the long-term. Solvency is a necessary condition for a business.

Obama: insolvent
Romney: solvent - can pay bills on time,

There is plenty of food in the US.

There may be plenty of food but someones got to work the farm. Right now no-one on the left would want to work, but if they could not soak people who do get a paycheck anymore they would be forced to work if they want to eat. No more waiting for the check in the mail. The south would have to put up fences to stop illegal immigrants lol.

Do you think its possible the Red States especially the South could declare succession and start the 2nd civil war in this country?
States that could do that include. Texas/South/North Carolina/Tennessee/Flordia/Georgia/Alabama/Mississippi/Arkansas/Virginia/Oklahoma/Kansas/Nebraska/North/South Dakota/Utah/Idaho/Montana/Indiana/Kentucky/Ohio/Arizona are all red states that could potentially join along.

Do you think this could happen in response to the ever increasing Bureacracy of Washington?
It seems like were losing our Freedoms left and right.
Now the internet could be turned off this summer etc.
What meds are you on and when did you last take them?

LOL....who the f*ck is "they"? Because "they" are morons.

We export so much food it's ridiculous.

Wake me up when we start seeing victory gardens and 1/2 the population isn't obese.

Well I have always hoped the south secedes and declares itself a Christian Theocracy with Bachmann/ Pat Robertson as supreme Ayotollah and with Christian Taliban style laws.

Good riddance to a worthless non contributing section of the country trying to drag the rest of us into the dark ages.
