We gotta staunch the bleeding somewhere right?

The libs maybe willing as long as they can divide up the debt evenly. Right now, they would consider it a bailout of last resort.

Why not East CA and West CA....as well as East OR and West OR, and East WA, and West WA?

I’m leaning towards the split idea. I mean California is too damn bloated to be saved. Split the State, restart the local economies..etc..

Makes it easier for the Mexicans to claim a part.

The Alamo should be turned into a medical clinic for illegals. You know, give something back to the community.

There’s nothing in the Constitution that says a state has to be contiguous. Look at HI. You could lump Oakland, SanFran, most of Humboldt and all of LA and San Diego Counties into Kalifornia, and leave the rest as California. Problem solved.

As for WA, we just need to get rid of King, Pierce, and Snohomish Counties.

You people are just jealous of our beautiful state.
I love my California, it’s sunny ALL the time, never gets cold, and the people I know still have jobs and money.
So go pick on on another state.... like North Dakota

Let’s at least wait for redistricting before we start carving the state up...not that it’s anything more than academic.

The Alamo is in San Antonio, Texas and has nothing to do with The Republic of KalefornicatiaI

They’re not going to let you break away.

They need your money and your population (to keep 54 House seats/electoral votes).
