And it’s run by Republicans too. All more the reason to avoid at all costs.

I rest my case.

Second, while people might rant and rave over the North American Union, the Amera, NAFTA Superhighway, nobody wants to deal with the Tar Baby briar patch that is the United States government.

Third, the United States has an excellent track record of assimilating other cultures. By the third generation, they’ll have accents, excessive body mass, extreme opinions, and owning at least one firearm.

Want a look now? Go visit Nebraska. We’ve got the bad weather (imported from Alberta), almost non-existent accent, lots of wide open spaces, and plenty of ex-pats who have gained prominence upon leaving the state (Cather, Cavett, Carson, Fonda, Brando, Payne…). We’ve even got a world-class cartoonist who was one of the first cartoonists to appear regularly in the New York Times. (Peter Kuper was first, but nobody remembers that.)

Dr. Who and the Avengers were also created by a Canadian. Sidney Newman is the man who created both British icons. So from Superman to Dr. Who, we will take credit.
