Apparently, a host of conservative Americans have threatened to move to Canada in the wake of the SCOTUS ruling on "Obamacare".[1]
We must now ask ourselves this: "Why?"
Why would these people, who claim to hate the "socialism" that America is now under, go to a country that has even more of it? Why would these staunch conservatives go to a place that is rife with progressive policies and controlled markets? My friends, I believe they have missed many civic lessons in their lives or are simply confused about geography. You see, folks, they don't want to go NORTH, they want to go SOUTH!
These folks would be happiest in Mexico. Mexico lacks real government control (independent enterprises are currently running the country), has cheap healthcare which is NOT socialized, and has plenty of guns. These people would LOVE Mexico!
Once in Mexico, they could start their new lives working from the bottom up in a drug cartel - a true free-market enterprise devoid of any government regulation! While in the drug cartel, they will get a chance to shoot guns at least once a week, and maybe even more importantly to many of them: THEY'LL FINALLY GET TO SHOOT MEXICANS.
So, let's recap:
1. No socialized medicine.
2. Free-market economy.
3. Guns.
4. Get to shoot Mexicans.
What more can these fuckers ask for?
Oh, I just remembered one more thing: Plenty of devout religious folks down there. Really now, it's perfect for a majority of American conservatives!
As they say in your new country, conservatives: Adios amigos!
