Then we wouldn't be the United States anymore. We would be in fact, 50 different countries. Germany btw had once 300 different countries and many fought wars against each other.

I would say that King George III got his butt whipped by 13 individual countries. I will risk possible internecine warefare if I get to keep the fruits of my labor. That is what it is all about.

The Revolution was a “perfect storm” event for the British. As long as the colonies stood together the colonies had a chance to win. If they had fell to fighting amongst themselves the party would have been over, the Brits would have divided and conquered.

If the 50 states dissolve the present Union they are by definition not standing together. Expect mucho conflict and the consequences therefrom.
