Thanks for the assist here. I come from a different angle where I see these as the vestigial artefacts of colonialism and we should be adults in the room entrusted to "fix the map". Point Roberts should go to Canada. St Pierre and Miquelon should also be part of Canada. Puerto Rico should be a either a US state or a sovereign nation. Same goes for Guam, Marina Islands, Virgin Islands and American Samoa. There's dozens of things like this. I frankly don't care about arguments of power. We should be relying on better behavior and not devolve into covetous impudent children acting like whiney teenaged monarchs from 500 years ago. We will never be able to successfully tackle the global problems of 21st century pollution, climate change, resource allocation, etc, if we insist on acting like adolescent brats playing Risk. It'll probably save a bunch of money as well. The British maintaining the Falklands and Gibraltar probably isn't cheap. After that we should start returning cultural artifacts captured in war that have been requested back but held up in the victors museums for decades. It's time to move forward and start being adults. We're going to have to do it eventually. Whether that's now or in a hundred years after making things worse is up to us.
