They want us gone--so, let's go! It's not like we don't have enough
to do to create that sort of society.
When I get done with the Jesus Pirate novel, maybe I should take a
crack at the Great Wall of USA novel, where we become a country
forbidden to infidels.
The latter begs for third-person omniscient point of view. I imagine
the USA would need a canopy over the country, or at least a
camouflage screen to hide from Euro, Russian, Saudi, and Chinese spy
satellites. When the Great Wall finally comes down, it would be
interesting to have both sides of the Wall, USA and non-USA, evolved
into highly advanced and benign societies--the non-USA because of
being freed from US interference, the USA because of being freed
from having to waste its energy in other countries. The twist would
probably be that the two highly advanced and benign societies on
either side of the Wall, though similar in many ways, were totally
incomprehensible to each other. Eventually someone gets the idea of
putting the Wall back up, with a vast sigh of relief from both sides
of it.
