101. Yeah, those resources.
A few points.

My Canadian cousins tell me Canada has a very nice army, thank you very much. They are visiting from Ottawa.

So when we encounter ideals we don't agree with we say, "Here ya go, here's half the country."

And let's talk a little about realities. Your labor pool is going to be rather skewed. Go into an Assembly of God church and take a poll. They are the truck drivers, the retail workers, the secretaries, the blue collar folks. Our United States of Metropolis is going to be very heavy in performance artists, and university professors. (all productive folks, but ....)

Talk about throwing the baby out with the bath water. We have a Constitution. We have elections. We just need to use the systems that are in place.

And I am not sure I want every person I encounter in life to be a progressive Democrat. Sometimes you learn more from people you disagree with than you do from the echo chamber.
