We would still have to invade Louisiana, subjugate its people, and force them to learn English. They're not going to get past their historical Frenchness without help.

Louisiana would actually do better than it is now IMO.

We control the mouth of the Mississippi and could charge the rest of the US a shite ton of money to use that port. Basically hold the US hostage for billions.

Also, we have Exxon based here and a massive tourism industry in New Orleans. We would lower the drinking age back to 18, because we didn't want to change it in the first place.



Hell, I think we should do it.

we don't want to.

I think Texas is the most universally hated state. Giant amounts of pollution, no one visits voluntarily, over run with Mexican illegals, and a batshit crazy Christian governor that thinks global warming was invented by Democrats and praying harder will eventually fix the environment.

Austin and the US depending on your oil industry is your only saving grace.
