Brilliant insight there Johnny boy. *You da man!!!

But just how does one go about getting the nation that one wants to
conquer and enslave into debt?

Or is that just a matter of establishing a "one man = one vote"
democracy in the nation so that during election campaigns, the candidate
that promises to provide the most goodies to the largest number of
people usually wins?

Or, had you had time to give that some thought?

A famous French political philosopher back in the 1700s
said that democracy cannot long endure, because soon
enough people will figure out that they can vote themselves
the treasury. And now it's happening here.
