Why doesn't the United States build a little more empire by simply annexing Mexico?

It would mitigate illegal immigration.
We could shut down much of the drug cartel corruption.
It would make for a far smaller, defensible border.
We would have something to do for the next few decades.

Might as well. Mexico also has a tremendous amount of natural resources that are untapped.


Every day on this side of the ground is a win.

I doubt Mejico wants us to annex them anymore than Ukraine wants Putin to "annex" them.

With Mejico, it would bring too much order to things down there to make the politicos happy.

Add 118,000,000 to the welfare rolls and Democrat party the very next day, like Puerto Rico? No thanks.

There ain't enough oil in Mexico to offset 118,000,000 flooding our hospitals, schools and food stamps.

Yes and were are fixing to go show them how to drill it.
Eagle Ford south ( I don't know the proper Mexican named oil basin).
Starts just south of the border may run for 200 or more miles south.

Yes, let's "fix" illegal immigration by making them all citizens of the empire. That will work for sure.

14,000,000 illegals is a problem.

118,000,000 legals would be South Africa.

Yes, let's make rape, murder and land redistribution of whites legal and compulsory...

Once they learn that directional drilling, there won't be a drop of oil left on the Texas side for as far as they can reach. wink

Mexico is in the process of annexing US, or a large part of us. 2 more generations and they will own us.

Well, it was just a thought, second grade thought, but a thought never less.

Just think how much better our economy would be if we added a hundred million more to the welfare rolls. Pelosi can explain it. crazy


The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time by the blood of patriots and tyrants.

If being stupid allows me to believe in Him, I'd wish to be a retard. Eisenhower and G Washington should be good company.

Yep, and turn us into the crap they left back home, but Dimocraps always were for crooked .gov.

That's the liberal way.

They move in because they love an area, or a particular state and then change it. (Colorado is a prime example of that.)

Then they move on because they don't like it any more.

Ask the old timers around Marfa how that goes. wink

Annexation to build empire. Our rule of law doing it the way that we want. It would be a win-win situation. They won't go on the welfare rolls if we don't set it up that way.

Manifest Destiny extends south too, doesn't it?

Annexing Mexico is the dumbest idea I've heard in quite some time.

The entire country would move up here.

We would inherit the cartels.

Yea. yea.

If we want to do something we should take a 100 mile wide strip the length of the boarder and create a giant public works project by turning it into a sea.

"If we want to do something we should take a 100 mile wide strip the length of the boarder and create a giant public works project by turning it into a sea."

I would settle for a 100 yard strip the length of the border turned into a mine field, and Dillon Areo guns with motion sensors every 100 yards pointing South. -TomT

I was just speaking with a friend about this yesterday evening. White kids are a minority in the schools right across the stateline on the eastern Oregon side. We agreed that we will likely be a minority in our lifetime, but there will be no minority status for whites.

She is moving from Texas to Montana because she is "sick of" having to listen to the "mexicans" talk in Spanish to each other at work when they can speak english. Fortunately, I am no where close to being a minority or having to deal with such a thing in my field of work.

BTW, maybe California and Mexico should "get together".

Anybody who cares to can fly to San Diego, drive down to Imperial Beach and see Mexico from the car window.

That would be the first clue.

And Canada too, while we're at it.

Canada has a lot of natural resources, good hunting and fishing, and no nukes.
