How about enslaving them?

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.

Banking Crisis= invade...?

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.

considering I consider myself "poor" (negative net worth pretty much with my student loans), I say f*ck you Haggis.

Killing the poor would be the WORST thing to do.

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

I think I would fit in very well.

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.
