For those of us who already live elsewhere, we should not look at what is going on in the US with disinterest, or "so what if the US goes to h. e. double toothpicks". Until some other country becomes the super power and the UN police, when the US goes down, they will take a whole host of other countries with them. Canada being the first.
The Canadian government already kowtows to big brother and would be the first to follow, like the good sheeple we are.
