A left leaning conservative? There is such a thing? EDIT: Thought I'd make this post a little more useful than the one line stated above... From what I've just skim read of this post seems to be the misconception that the NAU would be a new government. This is false. Any union doesn't delegate control over the country, it just oversees it's activity and states new law, and often fairer laws for better trade. Every union that I've studied seems to be only for Economic growth. There are problems with Unions, as they take away part of the governments sovereignty. An example of this is the Factortame case. This in short, is the EU taking part of the UK's sovereignty, by preventing the UK from stopping the Spanish shipping in UK waters. This is bad news for the British, however, is good news for the Spanish, and as we're all on the same boat after all, is good news for the Economy in general. Now, for all of those who believe it's tripe created by people who are scared of a New World Order, although I agree that you're probably right; here is why the NWO guys think it's right. If a NAU was created, it would be created for the possible benefits it will provide to the American economy. Somehow, the NWO guys decided that the NAU will be beneficial to the new Toll Roads which will be placed all over America, and which will only link to all of the cities. This will bring all the smaller towns in-between these large cities to the brink of extinction and blah blah blah, whatever else was said in some depressing do!@#$%^&*entary, or written by Joe Paranoid on some blog, on some website... What Ever... Now, as to why the NAU is probably a load of bull!@#$%^&*. The United States of America... Duh... A NAU will be obsolete as soon as it's created anyway.
