The US should drop some of its states and territories

The only states that should remain are on the mainland. Hawaii should be given its independence, but a military presence remain to at least protect the West coast, but Hawaii is a pretty useless state that eats up tax dollars in the form of social services. Alaska should be let go too. I think we can sell it to Canada for a decent price.


I also think we should grant Puerto Rico its independence and also let Guam, American Samoa and the US Virgin Islands go too. I would be in favor of also shedding pointless states like Wyoming and the Dakotas, but we can keep them to at least maintain all our continental territories.

We should have bought Greenland just to have a buffer against Russia or any future hostile actor in Europe.

Puerto Rico should go independent but we should set up some larger military outpost there and give them a protection guarantee.

We should boycott NATO until the Germans and French start paying a little more and acting a little more grateful.

Not much to gain by ditching the Dakotas, Wyoming etc. They have oil. Granting more autonomy to the Indian Reservations may have some benefits though.

My only concern with the Greenland deal is the money it would cost to maintain it. My reasons for not wanting to keep places like Hawaii, Alaska, PR, etc. around is because they all have mostly very poor inhabitants that require social services and welfare to survive and these places offer very little in return (accept for Alaska's oil). I have similar concerns with Greenland as it's mostly inuits who live off the Danish government.

I am all for keeping the Dakotas and Wyoming after further analysis and giving the Indian tribes more autonomy is intriguing. They are clearly neglected by the federal government and might be better prepared to care for their people if they did not have to rely on big gov.

I think Greenland has about 150,000 people there, which is negligible. Puerto Rico is in the millions.

I don't think the residents of Greenland would be much of a drag on us. And if we build an airbase there, we can throw bags of grain and some rations their way at little cost.

The Indians would have to agree to demilitarization and U.S. retaining control of their foreign trade. Other than that, they could profit big from unregulated lending, cannabis, gambling and this new thing every woman seems to want called abortion.

Trade Mexico for Texas, Puerto Rico and Arizona.

The Mexicans would become American citizens and would no longer be trying to cross the border. Drug could more easily flow into America's black communities where whites go to buy drugs.

Texas, Puerto Rico and Arizona would be AWESOME as Mexico. Texas can't figure out snow, Arizona can't count, Puerto Rico's largest export is hip hop but we gots more hip hop than we know what to do with!
