Simple thought #4 – Creating a North American Union
Simple thought #4
I am curious why we do not eliminate the borders between the United States, Canada, Mexico and Central America. I say we give Americans and Canadians, as well as Mexicans full citizenship rights throughout North America. This accomplishes a few things that deserve discussion. First it eliminates the need for border patrol, except for coastal areas and a tiny strip of land in Panama. It would give Canadians and Americans the right to own land in Mexico, for the first time, which would create a huge stimulus event as Americans moved to the coast of Baja, and the Gulf areas. Basically every person living in the Midwest could now afford coastal property in gorgeous coastal Mexico. Third, it would create a balance of labor, as poorer areas would have plenty of work available to them as the growth boomed in coastal areas for the next 10 – 20 years, and there would be a huge supply of homes available in the Heartland as agriculture booms and non-agricultural workers move to the new coastal communities.
Anyway, just a simple thought for you to ponder.
Oh, and did I mention between Canada, Mexico and the United States there are enough natural resources to supply all of our energy consumption needs for the foreseeable future.
