Yeesh, that Hal Turner guy's an idiot, or a genius who realizes idiots will believe anything. The "Amero" stuff is all completely debunked.
Athmos are you just messing around or do you actually believe any of this crap?

Re: USA preparing for something horrific?
Wait, whaaaat?
People saying Fox isn't full of crap and even people quoting BILD! (ernsthaft, wer seine BILDung von der BILD bekommt... *hust*) Bild is the equivalent of a even more boulevard-ish FOX just in form of a weekly magazine. The next thing we'll read is some Swiss guy quoting Blick, the smaller Swiss brother of the Bild newspaper.
Doesn't it bug you that such stuff only happens in the US and Mexico? Don't you remember stuff like Roswell and 'el chupacabra' or how it's spelled?
Clearly, you don't understand that people do this for the lulz, moreso for the money. In Bulgaria, there's tons and tons of crappy newspapers who have to do stuff up because they don't have anything serious to write; respectively people don't want to read anything serious because they're already stressed out enough by the economical and political situation in the country. Why would you want to read about some mafiosi killing some businessman if you can read something else?
Even though the thing with the coffins is pretty scary at first glance, I also think they're just a precaution in case of a serious "suberbug" emergency...

Uk mass graves contingency plans:
http://www.metro.co.uk/news/article.htm ... page_id=34
Burning People:
Maybe back then, our politicians these days are weaker. They would not burn people even though its the most efficient thing to do because they would rather protect their arses than face an uproar in the aftermath from families who had their relatives burnt in the pandemic. They would use spin tog et out of it, nuking their careers in the process rather than doing the right thing then beign honest and focusing on grieving.
The North American union stuff:
It would make sense for an organisation akin to the EU, although not with as many powers as the EU government has, simply as a coalition fo governments for trade and diplomatic purposes. Coalitions liek thsi exist on every continent, arguably we could call NATO one such organisation.
But a North American Superstate is out of the question. I'm sure this si jsut scare mongering, and any superstate would likely be a USA that absorbs Mexico and Canada.
Shared currency:
Mexico and Canada adopting the US dollar is the only way here. Replacing the US Dollar with a new currency would cause financial chaos on a global scale, and as caydr already pointed out, its not in their best interests to do this either.
Look at the UK and the EU. We negotiated opt outs on EU laws, we have our own currency despite the euro currency, and theres always the fear of the European superstate and us wanting t retain our independence being fostered by rightwing newspapers and parties like UKIP and the BNP.
Most people don't realise that the amount the UK gives to the EU for membership is smaller than what we get back out of that membership. Every year countries go and negotiate their way into huge bonuses. Just look at French agricultural subsidies for an example of a country using its political clout to squeeze money out of the EU.

Re: USA preparing for something horrific?
Look at it this way. After we are done bombing the shit out a country (and we are the best at it) we rebuild their infrastructure and their country is running better than before (in most cases).
Some countries should consider it an upgrade?

Re: USA preparing for something horrific?
Well what do you call "in most cases"? Off the top of my head I just know about Germany getting any real "treatment" after being bombed to hell. That was no act of generosity though but simply happened to get a puffer against the Soviet Union or in other words - in a nuclear conflict and with a bit of luck just we'd have been nuked instead of USA <-> SU nuking each other. The same goes for any other kind of warfare of course because sending in troops via Germany most certainly would be the faster and better way than shipping everything to each others coasts...bobthedinosaur wrote:we rebuild their infrastructure and their country is running better than before (in most cases).
Re: USA preparing for something horrific?
I noticed that 30 000 can also be said as 30K. Now K can be used as a substitute for c. C is the first letter in the word coffin. If we use K instead of C in the word coffin we get Koffin, which can be pronounced as the word coughing. Now coughing is what people did in the fallout after the U.S. nuked hiroshima and nagasaki. I guess the only real conclusion is that the government is getting the coffis to prepare for a nuclear civil war since C was in the word Coffin. Or maybe all the conspiracy theorists try to make shit they made up look like hard evidence even though they have no influence over those things nor any real chance to investigate (surfing wikipedia articles is not detective work).
Don't get me wrong, i am absolutely sure there are some world domination/master race/alien takeover/superior world order conspiracies going on, but i do not see the point in making the investigation of conspiracies a good pasttime for people unless they get paid for it. I mean, why would you spend a lot of your time dwelling on thoeries like "that man is trying to keep us down" or "that black man is a lizardman in disguise" when you have no inside intel, no way to doublecheck your "facts" (wiki does not count sorry guys) and there being absolutely no chance of productive results for your doings. Spock would just knock you the fuck out for that much illogic.
Before labeling me a hatemonger, i have friends who like conspiracy theories. I have one that is actually really, really smart but when it comes to conspiracies there is one thing that i have noticed. When it comes to their own theories, you can argue, bargain and reason less with a conspiracy theorist than you could with a bomb-strapped terrorist.
If you like innocent theoretisising take up philosophy. Instead of narrowing your mind with thoughts how some people are trying to draw you into their unholy web of conspiracies and get you, broaden your mind with theories and thoughts applicable to everyday life situations with your friends and family.
God i thought id just make a quick poke towards the theorists and the keyboard just started typing by itself.
