[US] Our leaders, in an effort to force themselves to resolve the dragon issue, will put into place a set of country-sabotaging measures. These measures would bet set to automatically activate should the leaders fail to meet their self-imposed deadline. They will, of course, utterly and completely fail to do anything whatsoever before the deadline is up. Somehow they still keep their jobs.
In an act of outrage the masses will then feed our useless leaders to the dragon. The dragon, having gorged itself on the gamy, high-cholesterol flesh of fat, corrupt politicians, will die as a result of a massive coronary event. It will be remembered as a hero and its image will replace the Bald Eagle on all American iconography.
