Destruction of a country

How is America prepared to hold enemy territory for prolonged period?
We have all see the great effects of the recent "wellness wars" upon activity within the population of America. Also there has been a recent boom in consumer prices which will have a benefit on industry. However, these benefits aside there may be some negative sides to take account of. We must be wary about the recent price increases, specifically when dealing with weapons. Many news sources have highlighted the price growth of weapons in the US, and it can be projected that as long as fighting continues prices will continue to rise to an extent.
The downsides:
Battle effectiveness - with prices increasing many soldiers find themselves unable to afford weapons. This not only helps to negate some of the experience advantages of the war programs, it also will lead to a depreciation in damage capabilities.
Foreign and domestic markets - with prices increasing domestically organizations will begin shipping foreign made products into the US. This will lead to the potential for foreign companies to under cut US prices and boost themselves through our expansion.
Long term strategy - I am in no way against expansion, however, controlled expansion is important for the well being of America. IF all of Mexico is conquered and held onto, then we must devote military resources to guarding those territories to prevent resistance wars from succeeding. This will limit the overseas potential of the US in the future.
Positives:
There is no reason to end this on a negative note.
American markets are very profitable at this time and as long as resources hold out, growth will continue.
War is making Americans far more active and interested in the running of the country.

German word of the Newsday -
Sehenswürdigkeiten! - "sights"
"Willst Du die Mexikanisch Sehenswürdigkeiten sehen?"
Will you see the sights in Mexico?
(since you are obviously there from the war)

I want to de-vote. My rent-to-own housing program wasn't a side not.
You're fired.
My bad - ill add it next time 🙂
I don't see how a resistence war could possibly succeed at this stage. Heck, we started a resistence war in Baja just for fun. There was no real risk that it could succeed. I don't think we need to worry about any resistence wars succeeding until we have conquored a large number of territories and thus have a significant subject population that could pose a threat. Hanging on to a smaller country like Mexico should be easy.
WIth a population around 300, Mexico poses only a laughable threat to regain their own nations. Lets face it, many of those 300 were just going to immigrate to america anyways. We did them a favor
the weapon price increase is a result of peacetime killing our weapons industry, and our lack of high productivity sources of iron
Our weak weapon industry crumpling at the first gunshot resulted in a huge increase of manufacturing wage prices and raw material exhaustion. This is what happens when you don't engage in war - you can't just flip a switch.
