Squish the Dakotas together and make PR a state, we wouldn't even need a new flag.

As a former Dakotan of the north, screw South Dakota aka the lesser Dakota. North Dakota actually pays taxes unlike Switzerland of the us. A joke we had: how do you know you’re in South Dakota? Potholes every quarter mile instead of every mile in the road.

I like your idea. But instead of squish, I say death match and we detach the loser.

How would we detach a land locked state? I'm here for your idea, I'm just wondering about the logistics.

That's for after, death match first.
