Are you going to give us time to disinter the millions of patriotic Americans who lay buried there, before you cavalierly sell off their final resting place?
And how do we then explain to them that we sold the land they loved to our enemies?
The Mexicans won’t buy it - why buy the cow when the milk is free?
“give Alaska to Russia...”
Jes’ wonderin’, but suppose we gave Alaska to Russia, today.
Would Alaskans pay higher or lower taxes?
Hrm? Selling property for cash does make plenty of sense in monopoly. Selling property for improvements is one of the keys of leverage...
You can’t sell it. Mexico owns it.
Makes sense as most of their former residents now live here...at least in my neighborhood.
Alaskans dont pay state taxes, they get paid.
However, I suspect the Russians would not be friendly to the Americans. Especially since the Americans are such a pro gun / hunting culture. You know the old saying about the difference between a hunter and a sniper...
...is what he is looking at through the scope.
Please. California is one of the best pieces of land in this nation. I don’t care what idiots live there now or how much funny money we owe China. Politics and people can change in a generation but good land is pretty much always good land
