Bhairitu,
Good catch. I thought she meant 1/12 rather than 12 percent. But in
this particular case, I was not talking about astrology. I was
talking about the national debt and economics.

Annexing other countries ain't gonna happen, John. Out of the

national debt. It isn't a problem; it isn't like individual debt
on a credit card.
You know how people who don't know anything about astrology
often focus on newspaper sun-sign columns as if they were
important? That's because everybody knows their birthday, and
it's dead easy to see which sun sign one is. But sun signs
aren't really significant in one's horoscope, since 12 percent
of the entire population of the world has the same sun sign.
Where do you get 12 percent? It is 8.3 percent if the populace
were equally distributed in signs but according to statistics
they aren't. In the US the highest number is in Scorpio at about
9.6 % and lowest in Aquarius at 6.3 %. These are for the
tropical zodiac.
Similarly, it seems to me, people who don't know much about
economics focus on the national debt and the daily ups and downs
of the Dow Jones. It's the same principle: It's dead easy to
check the Dow Jones in the newspaper and to look up what the
national debt is. But neither is very important. The national
debt, if anything, is a political problem, not an economic
problem, but that's because, again, of general ignorance of
economics.
There are many schools of economics and many schemes which
haven't been tried.
And nothing you say below about ISIS and jihadists challenges
what I said about Trump "leading the US against radical Islam."
It's pretty much a non sequitur.

Judy,
The current chain of events in the world is too complicated for
anyone to understand. However, if ISIS succeeds to make a "hit"
on the US home turf, you will see a radical turnaround in the
country's viewpoint. I would suspect the "drums of war" to beat
against ISIS and jihadists around the world. Hello, Do you
remember the 911 attack?
Given the current national debt, the US is more prone to
annexing other countries who want to join the American union of
states. On the other hand, there are many countries in the
world, including those in Europe, which would like to join the
Union in order to stay competitive and viable in the global
market, given the apparent weakness of European Union. Also,
historically, this is how the US has grown by acquiring
territories by appropriating and purchasing lands from other
countries, such as the Louisiana Purchase from France, the
Mexican-American War, and the Alaska Land Purchase from Russia.

Oh, please, John. Trump isn't going to "lead the US against
radical Islam." He doesn't have the *smarts* to carry out such a
task. The situation in the Middle East is far, *far* too
complicated for him to have any idea how to deal with it. And
the idea of the US "annexing other countries" is simply ludicrous.

MD,
If we're not careful, Americans could make Trump the most
powerful man in the world, after he leads the US against radical
Islam. We already know that Trump has the Pitta body
constitution and personality to carry out such a task. The USA
could end up annexing other countries as part of Union and
become the World Government the individual man may or may not want.

If Trump is elected president, he will push Congress for such a
declaration. But are Americans and the world ready for another
world war?
