The dissolution of the United States would be a failure and tragedy of historic proportions.
The idea is ludicrous in the face of the fact that conservatives outnumber liberals in this country by a large margin.
Why not just build a political party and movement that actually represents the rightful rulers of this country instead of committing national political and physical suicide?
Because right now too many people are sucking off the government teat and vote for more no matter what. A new political party cannot and will not succeed; also, after 200 years, the big flaws in the US Constitution have become glaring and there’s no way anyone can fix them (properly) before liberty is lost to the statists for an unknown length of time.
One state out of 50 leaving is not going to destroy America. We’re hypocrites if we tell the Soviets to respect the breakaway republics of Georgia, Latvia, Estonia, etc. but then tell Texas “no, you can’t leave”.
We can leave without firing a shot if we just get the will to do it. We’ll negotiate a settlement to America’s investment in Texas (military, currency, etc.) and set a date to become independent.
Think of it like a divorce. Or think of it like a corporation divesting one of their stronger assets. I’ve worked for two major companies and both went through break-ups. It’s a little painful but it all works itself out. We just have to lose this mindset that Washington dictates all the terms.
Gah, hit send too soon.
To continue; The collapse is inevitable, really. The writing has been on the wall for almost fifty years now; the only question is when and just how bad is it going to be when it happens?
Texas wishes to have no part in it and wants to undock from the sinking Federal ship before it too is dragged under the waves.
