From: "Gary Britt" 

Phil as made a case for many things, all of them wrong and most just
plainly stupid.  The EU is larger than the USA already, but only produces
something like 60% of the goods and services of the USA due to their highly
inefficient and corrupt socialist economic and political strategies.  This
will not change.

The farmers of the USA are so productive that we could feed the world or
ourselves just using the land in between our superhighways.  We take farm
land out of production all the time, and if needed 100,000's of acres could
be added to production in a single growing season.

Cheers,

Gary
