It has held up well.
I think he knew something of war, and wrote little on it.

The monster does not wear the face of an amphibious mammal.

When two monsters meet in the wild, the bigger monster eats the smaller monster.
Beware, dearies. The hunger cannot be sated.
It only ever grows.

The monster picks the faces it wants to wear, and has it's servants summon them.

Everyone needs Bobby Tables!

I do apologise, I thought you would be American.

But it would give the moral hazard of the seizers and holders having a financial interest in seizing and holding.

The government may pay, but it doesn't perhaps hold.
A suitable case for a government efficiency organisation, if one existed.

They've noticed that, and prevented Puerto Rico becoming a State, and declared Canada should be taken as a territory. (No EC votes for territories)

Canada BTW is several provinces, and the more obvious mapping would be province --> state, so the Senate would "save" on several seats that way.

Are you suggesting that your country has seized thousands of UK citizens?

Perhaps the incarcerating facility is paid per person per day.

It’s the detention element I don’t understand. If they don’t want someone to enter, turn them back. Surely ICE can’t be so bad at record keeping that they won’t know if someone tries again when they have reason not to admit them? Or is it just left to the judgement/racism of each ICE team?

Not that I know anything.

I gather you have 3 individual elections for representatives quite soon.
Start there, no?

Playing "look what you made me do". Is transactional analysis still in fashion over there?

Couldn't get time off their other jobs?

George and his team didn't do very well.

Enemies of the people.

Nice mono.
