Look. We only paid $7 million for Alaska. If we put a big fence up and charged admission, people would flock to see the fruits and nuts in the Golden State….well it was a good idea until the possible new Secretary of Health arrived. Now I think the fencing and razor wire around the Capitol is not to keep people out but to keep these loonies from escaping.
Louisiana may have its faults (like anywhere else), but they gave us gumbo, etoufee, zydeco music and Mardi Gras, so the way I see it, it was well worth the price!
Well all of Alaska only cost $7.2 million and that was way later than the Louisiana purchase so with inflation the cost of that kind of real estate has dropped like a stone! So, Buckyvania is probably worth a can of tuna and an old blanket in a drawer – take it or leave it.

There’s talk of Texas and Georgia seceding from the Union.
Maybe Buckyvania can join them and thereby creating a tri-state tribute to ignorance and stupidity!

One of the best things that happened for the growth of USA was the Europeans squabbling amongst themselves!

I believe that the Louisiana Purchase was $15 million .. not $12M …

A light bulb strong enough for an entire nation? Sounds like a $20 million upgrade to me. Makes it a wash.

Hey Bucky, there’s a really good song by Aerosmith you need to hear, it’s called “Dream On”.

Reminds me of a guy whose nickname was “Tex”.
“Where you from?”
“Louisiana.”
“But you’re called …?”
“Ain’t nobody gonna call me Louise.”
