Which state would you sell?

[yeartolate]

Ya know, Florida looks like it is ready to break off anyway. An no offense to you WDW people, it is not like Disneyland is there or anything.

 

[yeartolate]

How about selling Flordia to the Disney corporation?

They could REALLY develop a city of the future.

Sell time shares to retirees.

create "adults only" parks

and then you wouldn't have to worry about chad.

I am sensing the adult version of the Pinocchio ride will be favorite.

I am sensing the adult version of the Pinocchio ride will be favorite.

Hmmm, I wasn't suggesting anything so....umm, adult.

I was thinking of night clubs, and such where little children were less likely to be interested in going to. Sort of like Pleasure island.

BUT


you DO have an interesting idea.....for half of the customers!!

I vote for Michigan. But only because I went to Ohio State and for that reason hate Michigan.

Go Bucks!


They could sell the upper peninsula, though; who'd miss it?

 

[juligrl]

We'll throw in all the celebs for free

Didn't a lot of them say they wanted to leave after Bush got elected twice anyhow?

 

[Barbossa]

It depends, if Hawaii is bought by UAE and renamed Dubaikiki.....does that mean that a certain candidate would be declared inelligible for Presidency because he was born ooutside the US?

Can't do it. My DW was born in Hawaii, I don't want the Minutemen deporting her as an illegal immigrant.

 

[Mommy2cody]

Why not South and West Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona - to Mexico of course - half of their citizens already live there anyway...

Might as well throw in at least southern California too!!

I also would agree to sell Michigan.....GO BUCKS!

Hmm, not any more so than the other candidate being born in the canal zone.

hehehehehe

or if Palin's husband and friends susceed Alaska from the Union!!

Hmmmm, interesting idea!!

That reminds me of a joke...

 

[GRUMPY PIRATE]

That reminds me of a joke...

Is the punch line: "Lie!!!....Lie!!!!"


hehehehehehe

 

[Barbossa]

Might as well throw in at least southern California too!!

You wouldn't get much for it, it's all burned to the ground.

Not really funny, I live here, there's already been two (extinguished) fires in my area.

 

[Barbossa]

Is the punch line: "Lie!!!....Lie!!!!"


hehehehehehe

More like "Tell the truth! Tell a lie! Tell the truth!..."

 

[yeartolate]

That reminds me of a joke...

I will vote for McCain I will vote for McCain.....

 

[sk8ingmom]

Nobody has mentioned Alaska?

Many of them don't want to be Americans anyway....

Not many to displace....

Might get us to jump start developing alternative energy.

Well good riddance!

We'll take our $970 gabillion dollars in oil and divide it equally amongst all 625,000 of us.

But do you realize how much land you are giving up??

 

[DisFlan]

Hey now...this idea has some merit!!

I vote for New Jersey. Or Arkansas. Ever been to Arkansas?

No offense to anyone

NoNoNo - not Arkansas. I can see Arkansas from my house! I don't want to see Russia - or China or Mexico from my house.

Or wait...if I could, can I be Sec. of State?

[agnes!]

I looked up which states got the most Federal monies per dollar SENT to Washington (& it was an eye-opener).

#1 in money gotten back is NEW MEXICO at $2.03
#2 is MISSISSIPPI at $2.02

The two states that get LESS back per ONE DOLLAR sent in to the US Treasury are:
NEVADA at 65 CENTS
and (drumroll please)
NEW JERSEY at 61 CENTS

(This is 2005 data according to http://www.taxfoundation.org/research/show/22685.html.)

agnes!

 

[lucyanna girl]

I thought most of Hawaii already belongs to the Japanese?

[Rafiki Rafiki Rafiki]

I would have to say California. We could sell it to India--they could have Bollywood AND Hollywood.

No offense California lovers.

 

[wvdisluv2]

Pennsylvania

Hey Hey Hey!!! I need that state for my job (I'm in WV)

 

[MoniqueU]

Utah, that is one boring state. I doubt you would get much for it though.
