Re the need to protect the borders.

Someone claimed that to exist a country needs to have control over its borders.
EU (with the exception of Ireland and reat Britain) has removed the internal border restrictions and this does not threaten any of the nations involved.
It is a difference between on one hand the ability to stop military attacks, and on the other hand protectionist harassment of tourists and job seekers and job creating entrepreneurs.
We shouldn't confuse the need for a military defence with any need for customs tax and customs restrictions. The latter we would be much better without.

No doubt Ventureville and Alcor would both have been a greater success if European cryonisists like myself and Thomas Nord, freely could have settled in New Mexico.

Sincerely,
