Canada gets its own day? But there are only 30 million of you up there. I say we give Tokyo its own day as well. There are just about as many people in the Tokyo metro area.
Four million square miles, man. Ten million square kilometers.
OT: WHEEEEEEE! THERE'S GONNA BE FIREWORKS TONIGHT!
Russia is bigger, and has a respectable number of people living in it. Canada is pretty much North America's Australia. It maybe huge, but people don't want to live on 90% of it.
I say we have a 10 US days, one for every 30 million people living in the US. To balance things out.
As if your economy wasn't in bad enough shape without having to buy all that fireworks...
I could write a whole paper on why the economy of the US is not doing nearly as bad as people seem to think it is. Why the debt is still manageable, and in fact could be in decent enough shape (even if the US does in fact owe the largest amount we have a giant dinosaur dick sized economy). Seriously the GDP of the US might be down, but it still dwarfs that of China, and takes the entire EU to eclipse it, and only then by a few measly billion.
The real worrying thing isn't how things are, but how congress can drive them pretty quickly if they don't get off their collective asses and stop trying to dick each other harder. At this point I would just settle for doing their damned jobs and stop pretending screwing everyone over to screw over the other party is somehow in peoples best interest.
