27. You know the old saying about assume friend
Ass-u-me

South Africa was a bit different situation. For one thing, if you brought down the South African economy, you wouldn't be dragging down the rest of the world with it.

Do you really wish to spite your face that bad that you will cut off you nose to do it? You live in Canada, do you realize how vunerable you and your economy is to flucuations in the US economy?

Don't get me wrong, it isn't that I'm a rah-rah U-S-A type of person, never have been, never will be. But rather than going completely overboard in destroying this country, let us be selective, and use precision to bring down the government instead.

Anyhow, again I ask, would you rather see massive unemployment and massive military enlistments instead? For like I said before, that is a real possibility in the scenario you are proposing. Please answer the question and don't shrug it off again.
