No other country would give up its sovereignty to become a state to the Federation that is America. No independent nation-state in the world looks to give up its sovereignty! There are 50 states because that is how many have been admitted into the Union. The next probable state, if there ever is an addition, which in its self is highly unlikely, would be Puerto Rico, and there are many many mixed opinions and complexities that underly that situation. Puerto Rico itself is not an independent country, but somewhat of a territory. Its relationship with the United States is very unique in the world sense, it retains some independence, cannot vote in US Elections, and yet is subjected to many of the same US Federal laws.

flow to a place like Nebraska, Kansas, Texas, or North Carolina. those places have somewhat some ability for growth and are not being as no longer uncomplicated hit via the recession. Georgia can be solid because teenagers flow to college for loose there.

We would not invite any other country to be a state. Stop skipping class and taking meth. That stuff is rotting your brain.

We had a vote about making Puerto Rico a state, but we already have too many non-English speaking Americans.

Canda, Mexico and the USA will form a union like in Europe in 2010.

You want more? Texas can lawfully divide into 5 states.

Really??? I thought we had 51. We spend so much time involving ourselves in Iraq's business that I thought it was a state.

We're in denial about Puerto Rico.

If all the states are united there would be only 1 big state.

Land alone no longer determines a nation's wealth. If it did, we might be interested in expanding and taking in new states. Since it doesn't, we don't.
