Unification movements that achieve their goals are literally always a net positive for the constituents. Being under one government is always better than being under 20.
>>18539131But I do want to be under a government. My local government that can actually understand my problems
>>18539133That worked out great for South America.
>>18539131It really isn't. It is a disgrace that there are not 500 countries in the world. Hope thr CIA is working on balkanising Russia and China, two aberrations that have no right to exist in its current state
>>18539133Unified states still have local municipal governments but with added benefits like military protection, access to a larger market, a larger tax pool depending on how money is distributed.
>>18539131>Being under one government is always better than being under 20USSR and Balkans prove this false, as do collapsing empires in general. Somalia/Somaliland demonstrates that sometimes it's easier for half a country to pull itself together than for the whole thing to do so. USA does both at once and it's the most powerful country on the planet.>>18539136South America is a shitshow regardless, but it's known for extreme centralization, whether under military dictatorships or socialist dictatorships. Are you suggesting that fusing Venezuela and Brazil together would make either less corrupt and incompetent?
>>18539151>USSR and BalkansBoth the USSR and Yugoslavia were as a whole closer to European GDP per capita levels in the 1970s than today, and that is despite their retarded economic model and lack of access to crucial resources from the Western world.
>>18539151>Are you suggesting that fusing I'm suggesting that they did Bolivar dirty, and paid for it.
