Neither Trump nor Clinton as president will be able to use Washington’s power only for Americans. The rock on one side of any American president is Washington’s global interests and the hard place on the other side is the same Washington forever examining ways to protect and develop the world to the advantage of the rich and content to let the average American get by mainly on his own. States in the world should join the American union and send double the amount of money in taxes that we citizens of 50 American states send to Washington. Ten trillion dollars in Washington’s hands and 50 new states in its union would end all wars on earth and make Washington a de jure world government. It would make its present job developing and governing the world easier and legal. It would have enough money to stop global warming even if it’s politicians and bureaucrats wasted half of it. Most of the well salaried bodies in the governmental departments in Washington have no idea what their department is about. But just as in any church there are at least a few holy people to keep the truth alive, each department has a few people who know what is happening and are capable of directing it intelligently. Most men and women in the Washington establishment would laugh at the idea that the huge present overflow of 5 trillion dollars into thousands of pockets might be doubled. But a hundred states would force them to stop pretending they govern some nation named America and both the legitimate responsibility and the means of saving the world might make them actually work to save it. But without any new states in our union there will be no new money nor any fantastic new opportunities for the world and the loafing and pretense in Washington will go on. Either Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton will loaf along with them reduced to minimal worldwide duties between a rock and a hard place.

from the start and it is impossible not to read it as quickly as possible (it

one liberating ending to all its beginnings.
