One thing that occurred to me was that we could take over Africa. Why not just annex the planet and then get going on an FTL drive so we can grab the Galaxy? That is SUCH a bad idea I'm not even sure where to start. This is isolationism? Grab hold of any area that's in trouble to try to straighten it out? You know, the idea is that not only do we not involve ourselves in every brushfire war, but we don't try to solve all the world's problems. This is not Paradise or Utopia; that's not possible. I'm also in favor of a limited federal gov't. That is hardly advanced by grabbing hold of new territory and then applying large federal programs to them. That was a spoof, right? Tell me yes. Look,if you're in favor of a conquering binge, let;'s pick some GOOD areas. Western Europe. Canada. Australia. New Zealand.
