Well, the idea of legalizing gambling so that it can be taxed etc. is all sound on paper, but you all know what the caveats are. It's also true that Thailand is losing potential tourist and gaming revenue to its neighbours as they all allow gambling to lesser or greater extents... so, in theory, good idea.
Trouble is, as we all know, there will be massive abuse and shadowy criminality that surrounds such activities, especial in these countries round here, which the authorities simply won't be able to tackle other than on a superficial level with symbolic busts to show they are attempting to control it, but in reality it will be a feeding frenzy of financial crime, scamming, and slavery... plus the age-old problem of "corruption finds a way".
As said, good idea in theory... but when that theory hits reality, then it will be a comical failureon most levels, but good for crime bosses and the rich, which is par-for-course in such places. Good luck with that.
This.
Build a wall (physical or virtual) around the country and treat it like a fortress.
Have a rational immigration policy that invites people who can contribute to the USA to immigrate.
Organize for self-sufficiency -- energy, manufacturing, everything.
Pursue mutually beneficial trade relationships with other countries based on value we get, and not on propagating social justice.
Amazing.
Off topic question. I've been intrigued by the thinking process leading to guys sending money to hookers after going home. Could you by any chance tell how you ended to that conclusion?
