As this occurs interest payments to China will burden our fiscal stability to the extent the gold in Fort Knox will be drained to maintain U.S; Credit ratings.

Legislation being processed in any level of government must be or should be read and understood before votes are taken to pass or reject them. Many hot topics are facing our country and it is important that legislation being generated to address the issues be understood as to the actions being taken. Legislators should have a reasonable amount of time to read and understand legislation being presented. The length of time required is dependant upon the size of the legislation and the scope.

But setting that aside, what message does Macedonia give the world when it willingly enters a process to negotiate a change to its own name to please Greece, one country which amounts to less than 1% of the world´s countries and a fraction of the world population, so small that I don´t even know how to describe it!
