South and North Carolina should fuse and Puerto Rico should become a state!!

Why not? That way the US can keep a 50 star flag and admit the Puerto Ricans into the Union :P

I think my home state's antics would be soothed if only for a moment if it were to combine with North Carolina. *sigh* One could only hope.

▲ North Carolinians would'nt have it. They're to good for South carolinians. ▲

I have always lived in the Carolinas, moving back and forth between each. Currently my family lives in South Carolina and my seminary is in North Carolina. When in school I gain some joy from being outside of South Carolina. Merging the two would thus decrease my happiness, you wouldn't want to do that would you?

No, Why would we do that? To give Obama more votes for 2012?

Wikipedia says that Puerto Rico was ceded to the United States by Spain as part of the Treaty of Paris.

And the President thing is just.......WTF?

Thus answering your own question! The state of Carolina would be the East coast version of California, only not as funny when it's sunny :P

Well Puerto Rico never had a choice, as it was part of Spain.

Wow, PR has been pretty prolific with that kind of thing. Guam needs to get to work. :P

[QUOTE="789shadow"]

[QUOTE="RTUUMM"] yes but the US could of left PR alone, and thats the point I was trying to make. PR never wanted to be part of the US, the US wanted itRTUUMM

Well, you don't have to pay federal taxes. :P

In short, yes :P

BTW you are the first conservative I've seen openly admit that. My buds who are conservative always say they aren't 'American enough', whatever that means :lol: That's why any amnesty in the least for Illegal Immigrants is met with such pushback.

EDIT: Also, I don'twant to derail this thread's tone, as I meant for it to be more about the lulz thata serious topic.

The article says "some residents pay certain federal taxes." Certainly doesn't sound like the whole territory.

I have always lived in the Carolinas, moving back and forth between each. Currently my family lives in South Carolina and my seminary is in North Carolina. When in school I gain some joy from being outside of South Carolina. Merging the two would thus decrease my happiness, you wouldn't want to do that would you?

mindstorm

you wouldnt like me when im angry!

That process would cost a lot of money, time, and effort wouldn't it? Something we don't have right now.paradigm68

I think we should turn Puerto Rico into our penal colony. Prisons here are overcrowded, so why not just make the island a huge prison complex?fidosim

I think Mississippi would be a better option - you wouldn't even have to turn it into a penal colony; just the requirement that one must live in Mississippi would be enough to drop crime rates to zero.
