US deficits/debt are too high to be sustainable. Low taxes come with high health insurance costs. The threat of Russia/China has always been complete BS, but they are not "surrounding us constantly"
The best reply to this asshole would be to openly talk of US states joining Canada as a province. Or to have a constitutional convention with 50 states to decide which 2 countries to form.
We can also offer to trade with China/Russia/others more to lower any trade surpluses we have with US.
I wouldn't trade with Russia since they are involved in the invasion of the Ukraine. And China would simply flood our market with their stuff and ruin us.

Believing Russia instigated war is a lie that make Canadians worse than a 51st state. We are a NATO colony. Canadian media discussion of responses to this is that "we need to desperately buy more (3% of gdp) broken F35s to defend the Arctic, and be the front line on war on China" and futher acts of pure sycophancy.
Canadians trusting our CIA allegiant colonial figurehead politicians and media is core to our subservience. Defense pacts with other nuclear powers is best way to have US focus on US-Canada mutual prosperity instead of their destruction and collapse. 51st state, even with the minimal democratic representation that exists in a corrupt US, while less subservient than our current role, also condemns Canada to a worse collapse than US's destiny. We need to be a brake on US empire instead of the willing sacrifice to the last Canadian that the CIA wants us to accept.
So far I've been flagging this guy and others as Tankies so I can quickly ignore them. My reasoning originally was that maybe they'd have something useful to say in other topics so it was better than blocking and not seeing anything at all. At least I would know they're here and not get out of touch.
I'm really questioning this stance now though. They never have anything good to say and are so obviously propagandists. What are you guys doing?
You need to think for a bit: What does a war on Russia and then China gain for you? If you want to know propaganda, consider what makes you so devoted to that future.
I don't have to play any of your games or answer your new question. We can start and end with your statement that Russia didn't start the war in Ukraine. This isn't some long forgotten detail of the past, it's recent and the whole world watched Russia invade Ukraine. To refute that is delusional and there's no point in talking further.

That is the pure propaganda disinformation that fuels your own delusion.
in 2014, US led coup put their chosen nazis in power, passed Apartheid laws, and with US funding had nazi battalions start civil war bombings in Donbas, and massacred anti nazi protestors in Odessa. Russia has been trying to solve Ukraine peacefully since 2014. The only condition for war in Ukraine to continue is that Ukraine must be a western puppet meant to diminish/terrorize Russia in perpetuity.
When you call reality Russian propaganda, you're simply misinformed and in state of manipulated confusion. Seems clear that being 51st state is distasteful to both simpletons and informed, but for the simpleton, staying a bitch of the US empire must be defended even more, and war on Russia who's most optimistic possible outcome is nuclear strikes on simpletons, for which the simpletons will still be cheering for,
Calling reality, opposing the extreme political corruption in subservience to US empire's demonism, tankie/extreme left, is bodysnatchers level of sycophancy.
Like I said, complete delusion. I'm not some empty headed, cable news watching, USA can do no wrong simpleton. I can see the propaganda that the US puts out and how they meddle in foreign affairs. I also see the propaganda Russia puts out, and you are guzzling it.
There's no point in continuing this, I won't reply again to a tankie troll.
