I think that The U.S. should take the Monroe Doctrine to its logical extreme and annex the western hemisphere. Starting with Mexico. We'll come for Canada last. I think it would be better for everybody involved.
what do you think?

As a Canadian, no thank you. That is all.
-------------------- Alright then, picture this if you will: 10 to 2 AM, X, Yogi DMT, and a box of Krispy Kremes, in my "need to know" post, just outside of Area 51. Contemplating the whole "chosen people" thing with just a flaming stealth banana split the sky like one would hope but never really expect to see in a place like this. Cutting right angle donuts on a dime and stopping right at my Birkenstocks, and me yelping... Holy fucking shit!

Canada is already (basically) The US. Mexico, we should've kept when we 'captured' Mexico City in 1847.
Every place that has been colonized by the West has seen infant mortality rates go down, teen pregnancy rates go down, life expectancy rates go up, literacy go up, standard of living go up, etc.
And when we leave? Goes down the shitter.

Mexico doesn't count as being apart of the WEST?

No, it's just so far east it seems like it's part of the west.

With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

It's a drug corridor for all of S America, what do you expect? 
I love maps, though. Check this one out:

So much for White people being the only ones who excelled at slavery.

I just had this fucked up History teacher in a traditionally black community college go all 'Whiteness Studies' on our asses.
Saying that 'slaves' in non-white cultures were treated as family members and that maybe the Spanish were 'white' because of the Inquisition and stuff. I'll never forget that. I was one of like 4 white people there and was the only one to call him, a little, on that.

I sometimes read Leviticus, because i get a kick out of all of the hyper-specific rules about slavery

like, if you hit your slave and knock his eye or his tooth out, you gotta let him go. but if you hit your slave and kill him, no penalty, because you already lost a perfectly good slave.
or, you can only make a man your slave for 7 years
or, if your slave was married when you got his ass, you have to let his wife and kids go when you set him free, but if you let him get married while he was your slave, you get to keep the wife and kids. Also, if he wants to stay with his family, he has to have a hole augered in his ear to signify his desire for perpetual slavery
i'm paraphrasing of course, and theres a bunch more stuff like that in there

Leviticus is where the crazies go when they want to tell everyone how much god hates the gays. I've always found that interesting too, because when you read it, almost all of the laws have very specific consequences, and explain who should carry out the punishment, but the gay ones just list the punishment as "he shall surely be cut off from his people" or something along those lines.

I remember Deuteronomy having some choice bits about salting the land and killing your enemy's women and children. Killing witches and etc.

Yeah, we could do a lot worse than Mexico, the 13th largest economy on the planet. Language and corruption are the main obstacles. Also, they may not want to be taken over.
A small detail.

I seem to remember there being something about not 'coveting thy neighbours ass' in the ten commandments. Apparently the ancient Jews couldn't spell 'arse' properly either.
