RE: American Empire as Gated Community




     As the question was asked about where would one go if they left the 
US, here are a few
thoughts of mine.

     Current politics in New Zealand tend towards being interested in what 
the people are
thinking.  A land mass the size of California and a population one fifth 
the size of Los Angeles. 
The American dollar goes pretty far there.  There are some pretty hip 
communities around Auckland
on the north island and Golden Bay on the south island.

     Australia would be a good choice as well.

     If big city turns you on, I've heard great things about Brussels.

     Though economics are tough in Argentina right now, the people are 
among the greatest I've
ever met.  I'd seriously consider moving there if I had some sort of plan 
to make a humble living.
 Again, the American dollar goes very far there.

     Canada worked in the 60's and it's still a great place with great 
people and sensible
politics (relatively).  You can easily rent a "summer home" there or a 
"winter retreat" and not
raise any eyebrows.  Just keep a current drivers license in the States and 
everyone will think
that you live in the US part time as well.

     For myself, I'll probably stay here in the States.  Somebody has to 
stay behind to counteract
all these God-fearing-bible-thumpers...
