The Russians are proposing to construct
a tunnel under the 25 mile-wide Bering Strait
that separates Russia from Alaska. This is
of course insanity, as it will only benefit one
country, Russia, in the following ways: 1/ U.S. & Western monetary aid will be trucked in semis directly into Moscow, instead of the more costly, indirect flights. 2/ It will only cost $100 billion to build the tunnel -$600 billion less than the west has already poured into corrupt Kremlin official`s bank accounts. 3/ The Russian Mafia will finally have a steady supply of cement with which to dispose of their victim`s bodies. 4/ Russian hookers will be able to hitch-hike to New York. 5/ Lada automobiles will be driven to the U.S.A., where their engines will be removed and sold as sewing machines. The only benefit to the North American economy? 1/ Boris Yeltsin will finally be able to go drinking in U.S. bars. |
