A small list of examples of break-ups desired by a vocal minority.....California...New Mexico...Michigan.
This is the end result of a large minority that REFUSES to become one with the country they live in. This is the end result of a large minority being ENCOURAGED to refuse to become one with the country they live in.

“A small list of examples of break-ups desired by a vocal minority.....California...New Mexico...Michigan.”

Soon to become a much bigger list. The economics of going it alone are compelling.

Let’s take an example of a state not listed: Texas. Texas is quite wealthy and has significant resources of it’s own right. It also has a fairly robust population, a lot of land, port access, etc. Would any of us seriously argue that Texas couldn’t go it alone if that choice was on the table?

Now, let me be very clear. I’m not a secessionist. But I’m also not naive. If you set up a scenario where the economics of option “B” are very attractive, don’t be surprised when a significant number of people start looking at option “B.”
