Hey I have an idea. How about the US gets the Falkland Islands.
The US has more revenue, they could stimulate growth and wellbeing on the Falklands islands and turn them from a desolate, seagull turd encrusted island into a thriwing, lively community. They could organize cruises from the Caribbean that would take a tour there, maybe gambling in some tax-free casinos etc. I wonder how much taxes the Falklanders now pay, and majority of it goes to the UK. Also the US would be closer to the Argentinians through NAFTA and other Americas-based trade agreements and thus would create economic synergy with the Argies and also appease their wishes to have the islands to themselves.
