A border if a politically defined entity, usually not correct. Treaty of Berlin outside should have told you.
not sure what a soviet-german nonagression pact has to do with NAFTA and the near complete lack of capital controls in the US.

But I also do not believe in open borders.
the border is a human make believe that exists to control people, capital, and goods. it's pretty damn wide open for the latter two of those three things, at least as far as mexico goes. much more so than for people.

There's also an interesting dynamic I've read where since the republicans are out there saying how it's an open border, it's encouraging more people to make the desperate journey. If the gop weren't broadcasting that 24/7 for more than a generation it would very likely reduce the sheer volume of people coming.
It's advertising so they can have a boogeyman they can hate
you're a coyote in mexico looking for business, you show people video of ted cruz and greg abbott saying the border is open and no shit they'll believe it.

if you see the teal lights, you know the car is using automated driving, so it’s less likely for other motorists to be shocked and concerned when they see the occupants looking away from the road, plus emergency services have a better understanding of what to do if medical assistance is needed. It will also be super helpful for law enforcement, so cops hopefully won’t pull you over for watching TikToks on your infotainment screen when it’s perfectly allowed by law.

Seychelles is a much coveted liberty port in the US Navy. The Sailors who do get to visit will tell you about it's beautiful beaches and cheap alcohol. The problem is that it's pretty freaking far out of the way from our normal transit lanes. In order to do this port visit, a ship has to get down there and back at higher than normal speeds, otherwise they are off-station for far too long. It's a logistical pain in the ass, but we do it to maintain good international relationships and Sailors love it.
At the beginning of OIF, I was the materiel officer for the Destroyer Squadron assigned to the Nimitz Strike Group. One of the biggest headaches I experienced during that gig was getting steel beams shipped to the Seychelles.
You see... what had happened was that a DDG captain didn't want to be late to his port visit in the Seychelles and drove the ship at excessive speeds through high sea states. The continuous beating of the huge waves against the fast moving bow of ship compromised the structural integrity of the bow, causing it to buckle. The steel beams were needed for internal reinforcement so that the ship could get back underway and safely operate for the remainder of its deployment. I'm still not sure how that dude avoided getting fired.
sea water can't melt steel beams!

when autocorrect changes "its" to "it's" and then has the gall to put a squiggly line underneath because "its" is the correct word.
