Uh, Carl, Singapore, Pakistan, North Korea, Russia, China, Iran, Saudi Arabia and Cuba all have very strong authoritarian central governments that would quickly crush any threat or dissent that showed up within their borders. The one exception is the Northwest Territories in Pakistan are pretty autonomous and anarchic. I think you nailed it with Somalia though.

Not that probably anyone here cares about this: in response to the election, the US Stock Market took a major dive as foreign investors pulled their capital and took it all to Asia (-312.95 points). By comparison, the Hang Seng Index (Asian market) was up 155 points. How's that unemployment figure gonna look now?

If you look at the trend, it has been trending down. In the last month, it has dropped over 600 points. Even the NASDAQ dropped 74.64 points (2.48% loss). Todays loss on DJ was 2.36%. In a global market, that is considered substantial.

Market did stablize after a massive selloff this morning. Around 1130am it ticked back up, but still finished with a serious loss...

the only ones that might be unemployed due to a market glitch, are stockbrokers and that's the way it should be.!!

Abortion is legal in Singapore, China, Cuba, N Korea and Russia... And if I'm not mistaken they also have free health care and education, which aren't typical socially conservative values...

That's the problem with the faggots like you, you just take one thing and throw it out there like well huh huh huh that means there is an obvious connection; without any depth or research into what's really going on, simplistic simpletons as far as your willing to reason

China does have a 1 child policy law but they are thinking about overturning the law... I saw a 60 minutes bit on it.
The closest match to the Republican economic model is probably Ireland.
