Uhh? The Mississippi river does not run through Ohio. Posts that begin with falsehoods may and should be immediately dismissed.
Of course, if one wanted to invade Ohio with gunboats the way to get there is to start up the Mississippi (remembering to turn right when you get to Illinois.)

You do know that you can take a boat from New
Orleans up the river Mississippi, and all the way
to Ohio? Or if thst don’t suit, hop in your piroque
and paddle down the Ohio and all the way to
New Orleans?
One can navigate upriver from New Orleans to the state of Ohio. But as my friend noted, you have to remember to take a hard right-hand turn near Cairo, IL and depart the Mississippi to the Ohio River.

Please return me to the solitude of your ignore list.

I guess I didn’t give sufficiently detailed instructions to keep our friend from
getting lost on his way to Ohio.

The US Economy looks quite healthy at first glance but the real issues about debt, deficits, and the unequal distribution of the benefits of growth are not being discussed at all. It is a kind of collective con that both Democrats and Republicans seem to buy into. Declining Social Mobility, the extraordinary waste of resources in the health sector are a big problem. No one is talking.
