bridge from US to Russia

[joevol33]

Maybe one of you folks can post a link. I saw on the news about a proposed plan to build a road/bridge that would connect our countries. Good idea, or bad?

Easier for me to commute and plan coups. For it.

Why can't you?

I'm at the Dr with my wife and my phone won't do it. Messes up every time I try.

Probably a bad idea since it will be the US taxpayers that get asked to pay for it.

There's a joke about a veterinarian in here somewhere, I just know it.

If the Bridge to Nowhere was going to cost $400 million, this would cost like $4 trillion.

Otherwise, it's a neat idea.

Obama can do it. Shovel ready jobs!

Palin would not only be able to see Russia from her front porch but drive there too. She and shirtless Putin could go hunting together. On the negative side, Russia has previous ties to Alaska. If it's OK for Putin to take back old lands with cultural ties, Ras would not mind Putin driving across with little green men saying he was being proactive because of Psaki, Nuland, and whoever else in the State Department.

It's a helluva lot more productive than our tax dollars funding terrorist, overthrowing democratically elected politicians and waging war on the whole planet..

If an American had proposed it, you would be screeching that most of the road would end up dividing your precious Russian steppes and provide the "USSA" with a means to invade Irkutsk.

We will be overrun with Russian brides and porn stars.

And that's a bad thing?

That's the fun part about it. Russia would have to have a very strong border control post to prevent the mass migration of her population. The five people going into Russia vs. the few thousand leaving Russia.

And that's a bad thing?

Just think of all the domestic "jobs" that will be lost to the influx of new talent.

Competition is a good thing.

Palin could get to Russia from her house.

Maybe they will be taking the jobs American women think is beneath them. :dance2:

That's the beauty of it, we'd no longer have to listen. Ready and willing replacements coming in every day.

but you could only drive on like 1/4th of it year round, the rest would get frozen or snowed in.

I would imagine that the Bering Strait crossing would be treacherous regardless of the time of year.
