Dator presentation: After Independence, what?


After Independence, what?
Some thoughts about the global situation and Hawaii's relationship with old and new super powers

Recent news points to the rise of China and Korea, and possibly Russia, as economic giants, while the U.S. seems to be faced with imminent collapse.  How might an independent Hawaii situate itself? What might constitute a best course of action?
