Would be cool but white democrats would move in, 10 years later it would be all section 8 housing, and everyone would be on food stamps, voting D. 15 years later it would all be generic strip malls and subdivisions to go along with it.

Pretty sure the US isn’t going to let anyone take Mexico’s sovereignty.

Would be a little easier if you could get your hands on that missing f35.

Bribing Mexican politicians shouldn't be an issue.

This only works if you kill all the residents (and a huge buffer around) and import your own population. Ain't happening.

Wrong. You keep the Mexicans. You pay them. You offer them a better life and better opportunities for their children. They're good people. Their support is the only way it works.

Jews, Boers, Taiwanese, and Nortenos living in the same country? Nortenos and Boers might get along as they're both pretty much Cowboys. The Jews and Taiwanese would fight each other over who gets to control the economy.

We'd be in charge of legal, accounting, and innovation. The Taiwanese would be in charge of cartoons, and manufacturing. That wasn't hard.

Up vote for specifics. But I've got to know where the Jewish stronghold is in these parts?

Eastern Europeans are most of the strippers in Tel Aviv, so I say we get 'em.

So many of them are wanting to come to America so why wouldn’t they mind America coming to them? Lol

If every nation-state other than Mexico stayed out of it (which I find unlikely), I would say $15-20B. If any nation state decides to forcefully oppose, it's dead in the water.

Could we just trade them LA for the area, so it looked fair to outsiders?

Monterey is awesome. San Pedro (a suburb west of Monterey) is probably safer and richer than most of the cities in Louisiana.
