Lend Lease 2016

Celebs-who-said-they’d-leave-country-if-trump-wonWe have heard it all before, celebs who say they are leaving the country if something doesn’t go their way. Since most of them are crazier than shit house rats, more often than not, their desires are not met. Yet they are still here. Isn’t there some way to make them leave?

I know, how about this, breach of contract? It has possibilities, for a wide variety of people. For instance: In the style of palimony and not disregarding palimony. The freeloaders, ne’er do wells, idiot relatives, boy friends, girl friends, and baby mamas are all dependent upon the celeb to do what they say. If the celeb reneges, then the above described dependent is deprived of the opportunity  to expand their horizons with foreign travel.

By the same token, realtors, home construction, mortgage lenders are all deprived of meaningful work when these faded “A” listers do not follow through on their promises.

Because so many on the list have to count back to the last century to figure out the last time they were on anybody’s “A” list, boycotts will be ineffective. Having very little in the way of scruples, it is unlikely that shaming and pointing out the hypocrisy of their position would move them one jot.

Another possibility, conceived by FDR, may work and bears further investigation. In the opening days of WWII prior to U.S. entry into the war, FDR engineered the transfer of fifty obsolete USN destroyers to England. England got ships it needed and the United States got concessions from England for future U.S. military bases in England and the colonies. The way I see it working is, we send off our old, tired and largely useless and obsolete “A” listers in exchange for mathematicians, scientists, and successful business people who want a chance to compete in American markets.

It is worth a try.
