Seriously, can we have some sort of evidence to back up your claim's pollux? If you cant provide any, then that makes you a %&*@#"%£. Yes, that's right, I said it. So please show something if you're going to make stupid claims like that.

We would at least need to change the governmental system, most of Europe hates the current extreme-capitalist system I believe lol.
That will change by 2009-2010 when different political groups from annexed European states have seats in the US house and senate.PBAsydney wrote:

Just a thought: if Europe join the US then there'll never be a Republican majority again!!!! Maybe it is a good idea after all....
Not to mention Americans get uptight when Mexicans do our work.. imagine if we had a whole continent doing it.lolPBAsydney wrote:

Pardon? That was the classic American "we won the war" statement. I love how you guys join the war literally two years before the end, and only after it matters to you. Remember Pearl Harbour? THAT was why you joined; because it started to matter to you. Not because your allies across the atlantic were getting pounded, so dont try to act like the knight in shining armour, because you guys DID NOT WIN THE WAR. The only thing the US brought to the war was the god damm fission bomb, and look how much good that did everyone. You are like that annoying team-mate off battlefield 2 who turns up just as you are about to capture a flag, only for you to get killed and for him to claim the flag capture point.BeerzGod wrote:
I'm talking about a certain World War.

As a Brit, I am deeply ashamed at our countries affiliation with the US, Tony Blair has no spine and sucks up to the US like the little puppy dog that he is. Forgive my rant, but it really .*£$^es me off to hear how Americans, the most obnoxious and self-righteous nation ever, can claim that "they won the war"...
And thus ends the original direction of the thread....
*sigh*
*sigh*
Sorry, I wasn't intending to change the direction of the thread. Anyone who wants to retaliate to me rants should probably do so via PM so as not to subvert this thread and wind up getting it locked.
Please stay on topic. This thread is not about World War 2.adam1503 wrote:

Yes, I know, which is why I made the post above yours. Anyway, back to the topic...what benefits would there be for Europe if they joined the US?
90% of all low-payed work is done by Asian immigrants here, I think it's rather sad.^*AlphA*^ wrote:

Most construction workers that are working on big projects (The Karahnjukar dam) are Polish.
While us natives just sit back in our office browsing porn and playing minesweeper all day getting huge sums of money.
Former European nations would have all of the benefits that a normal US state would have. That is, the ability to make its own laws, tax its citizens, and have seats in the government.adam1503 wrote:

But... we can do all of that stuff in the EU already... you know, with the European Parliament?

Also, Arnold Schwarzenegger would finally be able to run for President. Wait, that's not good...Fancy_Pollux wrote:

I disagree with the HyperPower statement. The US lost the power to force the pace and direction of world affairs single-handedly in Iraq - it can no longer do as it sees fit off its own hook, or Iran and NK would've faced much heavier pressure than they would have otherwise.Kmarion wrote:
Lets get one thing straight Americans live in the present, not 230 years ago. We acquired our independence at the cost of many and I doubt anyone would be willing to relive the past. We took freedom and became our own sovereign nation and we are currently a HyperPower . I respect European nations and would not suggest they merge with us either. We must appreciate our differences and work together.samfink wrote:
lets get one thing striaght. the US primarily owes it's existaence to england, as they were the owners of the original colonies. what nationality were the colonists before the S came inot being? english. and it's more likely the EU annexes the US.
And I think most Europeans live in the present, not 60 years ago. So let's stop it with the 'we-saved-your-ass-in-WWII' talk, ay?

I wonder if all the European prices will drop down to US level? If so, I'm all in for it lol, everything is so damn cheap in the US.
but why would we want to annex europe anyway? isnt europe just another random third world country somewhere?
didnt we save them in world war 2 or something? europe is the one by vietnam, right?
