A Semi-Modest Proposal

When it comes to Iran these days, the feeling seems to be the only choices are "bomb them back to the Stone Age" or "BE bombed back to the Stone Age."

Really? There's not another way? Wouldn't it be more AMERICAN to LET them build their own nuclear missiles, SHOW them how to build them...all after making them agree to make us their exclusive supplier of parts? I mean, doesn't that sound more like what we should be doing? Seriously, what are the REAL odds of them deciding to blow anybody off the planet, much less us - why not make some mad banjamins in the meantime? Heck, rent them out missile silo space, make 'em pay through the nose. Sell advertising on the fuckers, whatever. For fuck's sake. Where is my America?

In other words, I have a sneaking suspicion we should be following the Ray Kroc playbook throughout all this.
