I think we can safely blame some random country for the banking crisis, right? Saudi Arabian terrorists attack the US on 9/11= invade Iraq.

That has played a major role but the banks did not help the matter giving everyone an outrageously low mortgage for a limited time and when it came time to remortgage hike the interests so high that it forced an unreal amount of bankruptcy and foreclosures.

Maybe, but middle east seems a little passe, I was thinking Papua New Guinea.

Go ambiguous? Britain?

Like I said.

Only something that ambiguous would give the U.S. the needed resistance to carry out a long term war that could energize the economy to pay off the deficits.

You should consider a career in politics. You can't even say what you're ambiguous about opposing, and you're not even willing to quote yourself.

Killing the poor would be the WORST thing to do.

You second option is much better; we just need to exploit them more.

GOd damn it this wasn't a problem in the past. In the past we, members of the elite, simple didn't mind these trouble making poor fellas.

I regret having been born in this age where every person has a cellphone, we should tax these devices so the average joe couldn't afford them.

We cannot slave them, they would make a mess in the media, and these idiots in the media as long as they sell ads they don't care if their gardener will cost more because he wants a better life.

We gotta figure out a new way of making them understand that they were born to serve us.

I disagree. You kill off the poor (bottom 20%) and then import cheap labor and give them 2nd class citizenship (Scandinavian style).

Nothing but win-win.

But it would be wonderfully ironic, considering the First Gulf War was fought to liberate them from the Iraqi's.
