I would guess there is much, much more cohesion of Icelanders than here in the USA making what they did realistic to attempt and accomplish.

Here in the USA there are too many SPECIAL interests, lobbyists, minority groups including race that all have their own agenda. Much of it driven by what they receive from our currently broken system. Supported by incumbents who will in no way ever do ANYTHING to alienate their vote support.

I would definitely support such a revolutionary move, however, the chances for success are too close to zero. It would most likely involve true class as well as civil WARfare.

When one adds the entitlement folks to the lethargic, doesn't affect me do nothing Americans it makes the task eve more unlikely.

I hate to say it (again) but I will....today is the best we will ever have as a nation. The track record and trend points dismally to our future (what is left of it). Think what those who come after us will endure.

I am glad I came through life as a loyal, patriotic American when I did.
