You'll find lots of nice sounding ideas, but no wheels to set them in motion. Stuff like, "We stand for a cleaner earth" but no workable solution that will improve what currently is.


It's childish "pie in the sky" - which is why the Green Party will NEVER amount to anything more than a reactionary little group of ultra-liberals.
Alright, but are you disagreeing with the fact that NAFTA is the problem etc. or not?
But it don't take much to get me by
So just booze me up and get me high

I agree that this is a distraction. The Republicans are excellent manipulators of political situations. I admire them for it, and especially the President. Gay marriage was a similar, but more successful strategy.

So... what do those 12-year old statistics about NAFTA prove? NOTHING.


Like it or not, we're in a global economy.
Like it or not, we must work and trade with other countries.
Like it or not, isolationism does NOT work.
