Can't we just takeover Canada 
If people come to the US escape mexico why would the US be interested in it? This topic makes no sense

Apparently there are 800 square miles of free desert in Africa anybody can claim.
The NSA is very interested to know how you know this information.

USA has bases all over the world. It's crazy, they are in countries you never would have imagined.
Note: I can not verify if this image is accurate. It may be a giant lie. But, you get the gist.

they come here for the perks of the US government, if Mexico had been reformed by the US, it would be a better place to live.
Most borders are pretty set for the major nations. The only thing I can imagine disrupting the relatively stable climate is a skynet like situation occurring where machines are building themselves cheaply. Perhaps we never lose control and send of armies of robots to invade other countries.

China and Russia? Are those US troops on vacation or something?
Mexicans sure would like to think that.

Pre-Castro Cuba was basically bought by American companies and the mafia.
It will be interesting to see what happens when Raul and Fidel pass away.

I refuse to believe Fidel is still alive. That man has been in power since 1959

Your image... seems wrong. Also, very outdated. Edit: Upon further research your map includes countries that the US does joint military exorcises with. So, no these are not base locations, but just a presence of conducting drills together.

There's a quote. "they say the south is taking over, that's true but it's coming over the border"
Nope.
Your geography is a bit off.
Compare with google maps.
Edit: Sorry, my mistake. The map's off. Bloody colour precision on my screen at an angle.

Yall need to stop looking at raw numbers. This is more realistic of countries national debts.

Edit: Misread. Purple means those countries let the US use some of their bases I think.
They make Old Navy t-shirts with American Flags on them.
no country with an economy predicated on fiat money can ever really be "bankrupt". let's be real here.
and china is not calling up our bonds. ever. bunch of crazy talk going around.
