"But its critics say it could spell the end of US sovereignty. In arguments akin to those deployed by critics of the European Union, opponents say that opening borders will hit businesses, create a terrorist threat and allow illegal immigrants and drugs to flood in."

Trade unification leads to political and judicial unification. Does anyone want to try hammering out a consensus with the Mexican mob?

In Texas, the superhighway would be so wide that critics say it would be too expensive to construct overpasses except in the cities, severing tight-knit rural communities.

What a dumbass this reporter is. The corridors will be going around cities not through them.

Our sovereignty is being siphoned off all around. Through our ports, across our borders, by way of outsourcing of industry......

We would need to modify the existing imaginary plans for the Border fence to enclose this road from Mexico to Canada. About 20 ft high on both sides.

Maybe the governments virtual fence work.

This is NOT free-trade. This is an abomination. WTF is wrong with a border? It is like everything is backward to what it should be - the federal government is abandoning its required roles and taking on ones it has no business near.

Forget about asking these guys to build a wall - they are planning to build an all-admissions pass straight through the middle of America. This is a security and sovereignty nightmare of epic proportions. They want to expand free-trade? Great! Take all that orange crap and pile it up AT THE BORDER WHERE IT BELONGS. Not even Rome was this irresponsible, this heedless, this oblivious.

"Republican Ron Paul, a Texas congressman, says it is part of a drive for "an integrated North American Union" - complete with a currency, a cross-national bureaucracy and borderless travel. "It would represent another step toward the abolition of national sovereignty," he said."

Yeah, but y'all know what a liar Ron Paul is. Practically every word out of his mouth is false.

Look folks.....there are those that want the border to disappear. This means making Mexico part of the US.....eventually. It's already in the works. But...you can't do this until the economics in Mexico are on par with the U.S. The only way this can happen is to lower our economics and raise theirs at the same time. When that happens, the border will become transparent. Clinton was part of an organization that wants to help feed the world. Instead of using our farmers to help with this, he set Mexican farmers up to do this to help build up their economics. It's coming people.....just watch. Your grandkids may be part of a new world order.

Within 5 years, ALL of Mexico will be living here. The word is out. Go to Americas and take whatever you want. The American will not stop you. If they do say anything to you, then call them racist. They will then run home with their tail between their legs. Americans will not fight for their country.

If this behemoth is ever constructed, it would be far better for the US if it was done in tandem with two other massive engineering projects:

Re-creating our national rail and airport systems OUT of municipal areas, connected to them by high speed cargo and passenger rail. Then upgrading our national rail infrastructure to high speed, that while connecting with major cities, would bypass them for transshipment.

Sounds like Jorge Bush has been at it again. If the stakes weren't so high, this would really be laughable. It doesn't matter who you vote for anymore, both of these political parties are nothing more than traitors. One sells you out for votes, the other for money. You figure out which is which, because it really doesn't matter.

While I don't doubt that there are people proposing this and that it has some support in some areas of our own government, I'm skeptical that it's more than a pipe dream of some of the most extreme globalization proponents.

We obviously need to oppose the elimination of customs at the border. If we don't inspect vehicles until they are in the middle of the country, the highway effectively becomes an extension of the border.

I also see no need for a high speed railway bisecting the US, and find it pretty doubtful that much of congress is going to vote for a high speed rail that will take you to Fargo.

The highway that is proposed in this article is something I would definitely be against, but I'm extremely skeptical that this article really represents a genuine credible proposal.
