@digdilem We took Florida and Texas from the Spanish fair and square and bought Louisiana from the French. You guys kept Canada but had to split it with the French. You can have Florida and Texas so we’ll trade you for Canada. They seem very nice.
Canada has decent healthcare, and I'd be worried that if we let you have Canada - you'd degrade that. America is basically a floating shopping mall. Everything is for sale. Even things that really shouldn't be.
@asjmcguire I'd say both observations are true, at least now. They only invented shopping malls 60 years ago and it wasn't always like that. America has good healthcare if you have a well paying job with a decent insurance policy. Otherwise you're fucked and will be bankrupted. We still want Canada though.
