Canadians Welcome New King

One shiny pip for the first fascist to say "economic patriotism"

Canada has lower corporate tax rates than us? You're doing it wrong, America.

See, everyone always assumes Canada will become the 51st state. But you've all got it wrong.

America will become the 11th province.

Yes, you have unparalleled military prowess. But we're not talking about a military invasion.

The first wave of Canadian undercover operatives have been in place for decades and have already taken over your Hollywood.

In 2008, we helped Obama get elected President so he could start sensitizing Americans to universal health care ("Obamacare", as you've called it).

Next, we'll usurp your economy by enticing all your corporations to become Canadian.

The takeover has been so gradual that most Americans are completely oblivious.

Canadians are evil that way.

Of course they do, as do most other countries. Know how they manage to do it? Higher personal income taxes. We are so anti-tax in this country, that we will do anything it takes to hide them from voters. So we tax the corporation, not the owner and worker and buyer of products.

Fair point.

Corporations, unlike people, don't give a shit about borders or nationality. This is why I despise every court decision that considers a corporation a "person" and affords them essentially the same rights. That particular viewpoint is what has led to the recent wave of U.S. companies re-incorporating in other jurisdictions. It's not good for America and I expect Congress will soon start meddling even further in your so-called free markets to prevent more of these tax inversions.

The average tax rate paid by a Forbes 500 company was 18% - or about half what the official rate is.

As usual, there's different rules for the wealthy.

Also, we do not have a VAT in the US, so, that's another piece of the puzzle.

I for one welcome our Canadian overlords. Except for that bieber.

Will we all have to wear denim tuxedos?

We're working on that. Expect the next President to introduce VAT legislation after the 2016 election.

Can we keep Football at least? I mean real, American Football...not that watered down, weird rules "Canadian version" where failed NFLers go to play...

Oh yeah, and Bacon. REAL bacon, not that nearly-ham Canuck version.

If we can keep those two things, I've got no problem with our touque-wearing Great White North hoser Overlords, and will gladly celebrate in a 3-way with Evangeline Lilly and Jewel Staite!

Oh yeah, nearly forgot...the Bieber...He needs to suffer a horrible, awful industrial-accident type of death. That seals the deal!

What? You can't handle three downs and a larger field? Bunch a wimps.

You must be talking about peameal bacon, which is great when served on a bun. If Canada is known for anything, it's three things: hockey, maple syrup and bacon. We've turned bacon into an art. In fact, we have so many varieties and cuts of bacon that Homer Simpson himself would probably die of a coronary. You could write down everything Americans know about bacon and it wouldn't even take up a single page in the Canadian bacon handbook.

Where I would not be opposed to our canadian neighbors taking over you do seem to have missed the dumbass right. Maybe in a few generations when we have the pussy youth who have been coddled in a world of nerf there will be a chance because they do so love a tie. However, gen X was at least still raised with keeping score so I doubt the merger would be equal until they start falling off. However, once you get to the apathetic whiny nirvana emos of generation little bitch you guys have a pretty good chance. If you get to the fluffy little twats of today's school kids you will have an easy victory as they will surrender to the first challenge that ever comes to them. You can call them fat and they will just fall to the ground and cry because you will be bullying them. The US is doomed when those kids get in control. I already want to beat the fuck out of their parents for removing any trace of competition and making losing a victorious thing. I swear we will be pets to the japanese and chinese in the future.

Dude. You're a brony. You're worse than all the people you just described.

Not sure if all those likes are for the Football bit, the bacon reference, the 3-way with the hot Canadian actresses, or the Bieber Death request...

Does this mean the time is coming when I can but Canadian Aspirin without a prescription?

Yes.

Throw in an expansion of the Interstate system in the 10 provinces and I'll put up the red maple leaf next to my Belgian flag.
That means twinning and grade-separating the Trans Canada Highway from Prince Rupert and Vancouver to St John (minus in Greater Toronto, where the TCH leaves the freeway system to bypass the city), providing connections down to the Interstates that end of the border (BC 99 and I-5 -- and the BC 97/YT1 corridor; AB 4 and I-15 -- and the AB 2 corridor all the way up to Edmonton; MB 29 and 75 for I-29; figure something out for I-75; I-89 and Montreal; and I-93).

I prefer one of three local BBQ shacks. But, when you're in a hurry Burger King isn't bad. I like their Big Mac ripoff better than the Big Mac, a very guilty pleasure of mine.

Whattaburger owns them all, but BK isn't bad for fast food.

You might find you do not know me very well. I also spent 18 years deep into the sport of survival paintball. I love to play and am about good tournament level. I love to play scenario games which last over a weekend. I love D - Day at skirmish PA. I have created my own scenario game company and owned my own paintball field for a while. That sort of lifestyle has given me the look. Dude I can stare down 3 skinheads and two of their bitches at a ren fair dressed as a wench. We were the A team when our guys played paintball. We turned a Jeep cherokee into an offroad paintball tank with a fully operational turret and had the scenario field space to run it. Plus I was a self studied MCSE back in the day when the computer bubble was big. My father owned a video store when I was young and we stayed afloat when the local video rental business busted in putnam/westchester NY. I was on the internet befor AOL was. I was trolling free speech in the alt.* on usenet. I was trolling furries, werewolves, and vampire hackers when you could do some freaky ass shit. I have been to furcons, anime cons, star trek cons, dandD roleplaying conventions. I have run my ouw LARPS and people would donate for me to run more. I am the gamemaster. I flamed message boards so bad they shut down. When they were good enough to beat me I trolled other armies who hated me to attack them. I am what you would call Chaos or Loki. And telling me I am scary is not going to bother me because I agree. I have done horrible things. I drove a FtM tranny to commit suicide. I was named in the suicide note, and this is a person I have never been within 1000 miles of. I have been to jail too in all of this. So yeah in your little world I am the big bad, and I freely admit it. I will play your villain short stuff, but if even half of what I just told you I was is true I am a hell of a lot larger a personality than you could ever hope to be. I am one of the people the anonymouse douches stole their rules from when they were first going after scientology. My time here on this board is probably limited. I have a wingspan that tends to get me banned from these little boards. To put it simply you are probably talking to the devil himself given the size your universe must be.

And in the end I do understand there is an overboard, and I actually have grown to like moderation. I understand the thankless job of the moderation who is a person's best friend when they knock down their opponent, but if you call them on their rule breaking you are a vile fiend lower than a troll. You see, they have the absolute power of ownership. It is their style I must conform my trolling to or else be banned. I have a different power. I have the power to piss you off and make your day suck. Now I cannot come out here and use brutish forms of taunting like pushing someone around or towering over them. I have to use my words, and they are sharp. You see the moderators care for you which is why they have created this place free of the noise of free speech zones. It is people like me who were forged in the fires of free speech. Believe me, you don't want to go anywhere near that nasty ass shit. These lakes and ponds of speech are nice and refined. Unfortunately for me chaos breaks shit just on it's own so even as I refine my nature I do seem to have a habit of being permabanned. I try to last as long as I can in most places, and I am wondering how I will do around here. After 20 years of this sort of thing I think I can find the height of tolerance and when I do, or even as I do I am probably going to scare the shit out of a person like you. That is why I put on the pink fluffy mask, because your ego needs a buffer or shield from my existence.

Of course you will not believe any of this, despite it being quite obvious, and that is normal. People like you are not able to see behind the scenes because you lack a refined sense of empathy. So I already know your next move, and please do get back on subject. This is not a thread about me so I am sure given this location exists there would be a place to make a thread about how truly awesome and annoying I am, so do go there and make such a post if you want to discuss this further.

I stopped reading right there.

Word of advice: if someone is poking fun at you, don't give them further ammunition.

Go to another thread if you wish to discuss this.

Seems to be a theme lately.

So what the fuck is wrong with Tererun, apart from being a brony?

Bring this discussion over here.

In this case, paintballs

Jesus you're fucking awesome! Why didn't you tell us about all this before? Such depth. You're a 21st Century Renaissance Man...Girl...thing! Paint ball games? Get out of here! That's AMAZING!

Golly, you're trolling kung fu is something else. Off the charts. You've been doing this for 20 years? A master! I don't know how we'll handle it!

If his/her sentence structure continues unabated I'll have to read with Polaroid glasses. My eyes hurt. Maybe some castle-salve will help.

Plus they sell onion rings. The All-Powerful Mickey D's hasn't been smart enough to do that!
