THINGS YOU DIDN'T KNOW WERE TRUE (PART TWO)*

 USSCA

Well at long last it's happening.

It has always intrigued me why South America, with its geographical and population size, its natural resources, seaboards, arable land and massive tourist potential has forever been the poor cousin of USA and collectively way down the rankings in world powers.

Like Africa I guess it's easy to see why. There being so many countries making up South America each with their own politics, agendas, ethnicities and in some cases, languages. I was always wondering why they didn't just share the country between them, mix up the populations, langages, cultures and politics and get on with becoming part of the real world.

It's taken quite a long time but, as I said, it is now happening. To some degree the European Union, even with all of its problems has led the way in this as has USA and Australia with their states system of federal government. USA of course under that idiot Trump and afterwards has seemed as if this states system could blow apart - but it hasn't. Yet.

No, what is happening is that there will be a new 'national' entity formed in the lower part of the American continent. It will be the the United States of South and Central America - USSCA. The former South American countries of Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Paraguay, Peru, Suriname, Uruguay and Venezuela will be joined by the former Central American countries of Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and Panama.

Mexico is unlikely to join at this stage as it was suggested that the members of USSCA would identify themselves with badges. The Mexicans did not want badges.

BADGES

It's probably not a bad thing that Mexico will not be joining as they could be quite disruptive and exert a disproportionate amount of power in the federal government kind of like Florida does in the USA. Having Mexico separate also creates a nice buffer between USA and USSCA.

The Federal states system won't be without its initial problems but if these can be sorted out through legislature and senate and congress debate rather than warfare and armed hostility then the longer term outcome will be hugely beneficial to South and Central American citizens and will create a new superpower. This will give the racist and condescending North Americans a well-deserved boot up the arse and, in this dangerous time of Russian and Chinese expansionism set up another checkpoint.

The 20 new states will have open borders and there will be one citizenship - that of USSCA or South/Central in short. The continent's wealth and potential can be shared and central funding will be available for social, industrial and food productive enterprises in a way that was never seen before.

Personally I'm excited by this project.

Keep watching developments and remember - you heard it here first .
