If America is worth saving, what strategy should be employed?

How many of you remember SPECTRE from the James Bond movies? In one of the movies, Blofelt has two fish (like Republicans and Democrats?) that fight each other to the death. One fish kills the other, but is weakened from the fight. SPECTRE says that that is when they should swoop in and accomplish its goals. Blofelt then feeds the fish to his white cat. Both Republicans and Democrats are extremely weak right now. Should we wait any longer, or is it time?

    I find the question difficult because the country is so large and diverse. Look, for instance, at the behavior of the people in Louisiana after the hurricane and those in Colorado after the flood. Coloradans, in general, did not sit on their roofs and wait to be rescued, bitching about how long it took. Many Coloradans rescued themselves and each other. Some had to dissuade FEMA from rescuing them, as they had prepared for such events and were in no danger.

    Also, there are areas of the country which I don't want to be involved with in any way. I do know people worth saving [some of them here] down the Eastern seaboard , but most of it could vanish from the earth and and I would breathe a sign of relief. If we have to be tied together in America, I think there would be trouble of many kinds. Organizing in different configurations would be a different kind of trouble.

    I think we have to agree on some first premises before we can even begin to answer your question. drat.

    I would like to see that done, too. Unfortunately that would require violating the non-aggression principle.

    Kick out all the communists and unions. Overnight, we'll face a massive loss in population. Entrepreneurs and true, free-market capitalists only.
