One Big Unified Continent?

Ever heard of the Amero or the North American Union? Sound like a bad joke?

Well, it’s actually real, and it’s in the works. The White House is making plans to unify and eliminate all borders between the US, Canada, and Mexico. The American Dollar will be placed with the Amero, similar to the Euro.

Now, this may seem like a good thing, facilitating free trade and creating an even stronger currency. But what about the current flood of illegal immigration from Mexico? Without a national distinction between Mexico and America, anyone can and will come and go as they please into the US. Just look at how many people are coming in now.

What about the government? Right now, Mexico governs itself, Canada governs itself, and the US governs itself. Who will govern the whole continent, and what kind of government structure will be created? Will a new constitution be written? Can the old one still apply? The prospect of creating a new government for all of North America frightens me, and it should frighten you too. Especially when you think of all the personal privacy invasion taking place by the Department of Homeland Security in the name of preventing terrorism.

One big unified continent with one all-watchful government sounds way too 1984ish for comfort. I don’t pretend to be an expert on this, I only just heard of it yesterday. That’s the problem. Most people haven’t even heard of this. That’s Bush’s plan. Keep it quiet until it’s done. Then it’s too late to even have a say in it.

This will directly impact our future. Read up on it.
