Politics: Left, Right, and Center National, state, regional, and local politics. Who's doing what to whom, and what you can do about it. How-to-get-action messages are encouraged. "How the government fucked up my life" stories are encouraged. Sharing new methods for cheating on taxes is encouraged. Sample "letters to congresscritters" are encouraged. Apathy and "I can't do anything" posts are discouraged. Left, right, centrist, or any other form of political-economic systems are all up for discussion. Be prepared to defend yourself, or at least have a good line of bullshit ready. Extensive quoting of economists and philosophers is frowned upon. We want to hear what YOU have to say, not what some constipated, impotent, dead guy dreamt up while suffering from the DT's over a hundred years ago thought.

Default World War III?

So...
A chunk of the middle east is at war, and has been for years, with all kinds of countries over there.
Russia and Georgia are killing each other, and the South Ossetian leader claims 1, 400 civilians dead after bombings and open fires. The states, UN and Nato are all getting involved.
Does this remind anyone else of the Baulken Keg, or am I just a paranoid freak?

The similarities between Vietnam and the War on Terror & this recent episode in Georgia are more striking. (Interfering in what is essentially another country's civil war, starting off with more subversive tactics first).

In order to bear any similarities to the previous two World Wars, WWIII will have to involve competitive empire building. With the current disputes over the Artcic sea bed it isn't implausible.

WWIII? Nah, not right now, but we seem to be slowly moving in that direction. A few more decades might yield what you're looking for.

World War III is such a bad idea it's disturbing to think about, but it's not worth worrying about. Personally, I'm not a conspiracy theorist who believes in the NWO so I don't think I'm going to lose sleep over this.

Although it's unlikely at this point, it does seem like the world is moving in a dangerous position as a whole. Again, I don't believe in the NWO, so I hope the world leaders are smart enough to realize that a World War is bad business in this age of weapons of mass destruction.

I think the usa should, for once, not involve itself in this bullshit.

We've got too much going on right now.

we need a return to our pre wwI isolationist policies.
