Posted by Josh on 8/6/2006, 10:54 am You better pay attendtion to this one!! A MASSIVE road four football fields wide and running from Mexico to Canada through the heartland of the United States is being proposed amid controversy over security and the damage to the environment. The "nation's most modern roadway", proposed between Laredo in Texas and Duluth, Minnesota, along Interstate 35, would allow the US to bypass the west coast ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach to import goods from China and the Far East into the heart of middle America via Mexico. However, critics argue that the ten-lane road would lay a swathe of concrete on top of an already over-developed transport infrastructure and further open the border with Mexico to illegal immigrants or terrorists. Information has revealed it to be more dangerous in the broad impacts it promises: to "open" government, eminent domain abuse, national security, the environment, special interests, foreign controlled infrastructure, etc. Here a a few links if you want to read about this. http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=15017
The idea is to form the North American Union as a super-NAFTA knitting together Canada, the United States and Mexico into a super-regional political and economic entity.
