They were doing nothing with the land before we came and would still be doing nothing with it unless you count living as nomads and slaughtering each other as 'doing something.'

They're using it to come to a country and land because their people are incapable of building a successful one.

Unless you are a History major, you only need one class, and most people take either US History before 1865, or US History after 1865.

All paid for, of course, by the US taxpayer. Except only now, if annexed, they would no longer have the burden of crossing the border and destroying the areas they occupy, now they could just stay home and get all those goodies without moving.

Yeah we would get more people on benefits; but as a bonus, we would get a TON of our factories back.
