I wrote this satirical essay for extra credit in a gifted education class I have; after reading A Modest Proposal, I was to write an essay tackling an issue in his basic style.

Your sarcastic imperialist views (which translate into serious anti-imperialistic views) are unappreciated very much appreciated.

Europe has already had its turn at colonizing Africa.  Since it's their century, it's time to give the Chinese a chance.

The Chinese prefer to just annoy their neighbors, and kick our asses economically. Somehow they got the USPS to help deliver certain items cheaper from China than it would cost to deliver them domestically. The Chinese are no strangers to Africa, having brought back giraffes before Columbus was born, but they prefer to just be the economic superpower.
