Why doesn't the USA just buy Mexico?

Then you won't need to build a fence......just have lower minimum wages for the state of Mexico, and you won't need to outsource.

I have thought about it alot, except my idea would just be to take it over with the ANG guys that are currently inactive. LMAO! I think it could bolster our economy.
Of course we would have to naturalize all of them.

Heres the key...keep the Mexican economy seperate, that way no one in the states are funding Mexicans.  A completely seperate economy, funded mostly by rich Americans who pay land taxes for their summer homes.  Not to mention all the land that could be turned into farmland.  And the USA would be outsourcing to a country they own, with lower labour wages, and much cheaper government costs.

Personally I see the USA expanding in the next 20 years, and Mexico seems more fitting than Canada, as Canada is pretty comfortable with the biggest oil exporter to the USA.

Well, as long as they keep the welfare payments very low......shouldnt be a problem.  Plus they are only lazy because they need more education......

That would make little difference. Right now we are free to trade with Mexico under NAFTA. If Mexico joined the US they would be integrated with our market regardless of whether they had a seperate economy or not.

Plus even the idea of merging Mexico would deeply wound our nation's pride.

hahahaha! awesome!

really though, i think if america and the US decided to combine it would defintely be to the benifit of both.
one of the paths to a better future i can imagine would involve the peaceable expansion of the US.

Aye, NAFTA is good, but if the USA owned Mexico there wouldnt be a rush to illegally work in the USA, if there was enough work in Mexico to support them.

Can't hurt to expand the USA as long as you keep the 50 states, and just add territories the USA owns. That way they can keep different tax and minimum wage laws, making it a prime country for outsourcing, but outsourcing within a US territory.

The key is to make it hard to immigrate into the USA, but at the same time, keep Mexico wealthy enough for them to stay there. We'd still get cheap labour, while keeping the Mexicans in Mexico. AND we'd be able to own land in Mexico.

If not Mexico, they should buy a South American country. The more the USA owns the better.........fuck its been over 50 years since they bought anything. Alaska is good for crab fishing, but some South American place would rock for Vacation land.

How would taking over a struggling, POS economy do any good to our economy?

Mexico is an ailing, lame duck of a country. Aside from plentifully available labor and inexpensive land, there's little worth in mexico as a whole.
