If our debts are forgiven, China can have California - lock, stock and Jerry Brown.

If we sold The Land of Fruits and Nuts to the Chinese, I'd be willing to bet that they could secure the border!

Sell California: OK

But not the mineral rights: lots to frack there.

Nobody would buy California. But I would not put it past Obama to trade Hawaii to China, (they do want that state) and give Alaska to Russia.

In fact, call me crazy, but I expect it.

Maybe if the Chinese drive a hard bargain, we might have to sell them Oregon too but that's where we draw the line, Beijing - take it or leave it.

Let's slip Maryland into the deal and see if the Chinese notice.

This is idiotic, because politicians would have an orgasm over it. They would sell their mothers souls to have access to that much clean balance sheet for debt re-creation...

No way.

California was/could be again the “Land of Milk and Honey” but not for liberal Californians and illegal aliens.

Get rid of those two massive, dependent classes of people, there would be a new gold of rush of sorts in mineral development, etc.

We can send the liberals to Canada and the illegals back to whence they came and everything would be copacetic. Yeah, I know it’s not going to happen, but it was a nice thought anyways.

Frankly, I expect him to try to give Texas back to Mexico. As a matter of fact, I hope he tries.

No self-respecting Californian would live in “AmericaTown”. They’ve spent the last 40 years perfecting their hatred of all things American.

Selling property for cash doesn’t work in Monopoly and won’t work in real life either.
