I was thinking about things like the Base in Gautoama Bay.
The fact Puerto Rico is a US territory.
The influence the US has in Panama/Costa Rica.
The number of wealthy Americans living in the Caribbean.
The list goes on.
I'm obviously not hoping we copy American mistakes.
But I just think its funny how they're our natural counterparts.
I mean would the world become a worst place if Jamaica became a Canadian province/territory?
Or more likely if we just had better relations with one of these countries.
I.e. we invest and fix their problems and we get a place we can visit.
The difference between us and the States is that they have something we want.
And yes a "warm place" counts for a lot.
