Politics


New America
By: Cory Bray



The other day I was thinking about the geography of our country. Particularly, I was thinking about the different types of people who live in different areas. I recall the t-shirt that came out after the 2000 presidential election that color coded the counties based on which candidate won the majority of the vote. It appeared to me that almost all of the country was red! It really didn’t make sense to me that an overwhelming majority of the counties in the country voted for Bush, yet Gore actually won the popular vote. The next thing that I noticed was that the most populated blue counties were clumped together on our coasts. I began to think how much greater America would be if we got rid of the northeast part of the country east of the Appalachians and north of Virginia, as well as the state of California?

Do you think I’m crazy? Think again. Many will argue that a move like this will ruin our country since most of our wealth is based in New York, and most of our political power in DC. I don’t believe this is the case. If it weren’t for the millions of people who live in the area that will be preserved under my plan, the wealth on the east coast will not exist. How could these companies survive if they had no one to sell their goods to? I am not suggesting this move to undermine corporate America, but on the contrary. I suggest we move the corporate headquarters throughout New America and let them strive in states not controlled by the liberals. Companies will actually be able to keep the majority of their profits without paying taxes at ridiculous rates. As for the political power, we have many great leaders living between the borders of what will be New America. If these leaders were relieved of all the stress brought on by the intense liberal propaganda of the northeast and California, they will be able to accomplish the goals of the people instead of trying to fend off attacks from the far left.

In New American people’s focus will be on how to enjoy their lives instead of how to get by in their lives because of constant pressures by the government. I envision a 20% upper income tax bracket so people can keep what they earn instead of giving it to the government to waste. We will also enjoy our lives more with the numbers of protests in our country will decrease dramatically. When we turn on the television we can see Barbara Streisand and Alec Baldwin standing in a FOREIGN country telling us why we don’t deserve to take home more of our income. We will also enjoy a lower crime rate because criminals will now get their due punishment instead of undue sympathy. Probation will be replaced with work camps in the mountains of Wyoming, because unlike color TV’s and weights in their cell, this will teach criminals that crime doesn’t pay.

Our new country will be a country of equality, not conditional equality. It will be accepted to either buy our meat at the stores, or kill it ourselves, as long as it is in season. We will be gain employment based solely on our abilities and our character. There will be no handouts in New America, panhandling will be illegal, and people who abuse welfare will be punished harshly. Anyone who kills someone will get the death penalty, and anyone who deals drugs will be sentenced to life in prison. People in what will be New America currently have to take responsibility for their own actions, if New America became a reality, they will finally get a proportional reward for their sacrifices.

New America is merely a dream, but what a great dream it is. It would be fascinating to see a land controlled by realistic people with reasonable goals. I think all of us would appreciate it when we saw a few extra bucks in our pockets, but that would not be the greatest thrill. The greatest thrill would come looking out, looking out to the two newly formed countries: Liberalia and East Liberalia. Finally they could find no where to place the blame for events that humans can’t be blamed for. They will start to protest protests, and then protest those protests. They eventually will figure out that they would rather live in New America, but then they hit a wall. They hit a 20 foot tall concrete wall with armed guards patrolling the top of it. That’s right, in New America we will allow no illegal immigrants and our country will flourish because of it. Contact us for more info
