Could blue survive without red? As blue America and red America drift farther apart, one wonders how each would do without the other

[TLI]

The Red parts of our nation produce the wealth. The Blue parts are a vast apparatus to steal that wealth. They are parasites on the rest of the nation.

As we see here...

The most basic factors are as follows.

The factors of production are land, labor, capital and entrepreneurship.

Red areas are obviously winners in land.

Labor should constitute REAL labor, not hordes of gibs-me-dats. Once again Red areas are clearly ahead of the blue.

Capital? Well, capital can be in various forms, wealth in the form of money or other assets owned by a person or organization or available or contributed for a particular purpose such as starting a company or investing. A bank is not necessary to contribute such assets.

Entrepreneurship? OK. Lets take a look at what it takes to get a business up and running. A banker following a book full of "rules?"

How about a group of people looking to achieve a common goal such as build a needed road, construct a slaughterhouse, get a school district some buildings without a pack of progs telling parents they can't raise their own children because the want to pervert the kids?

The examples just go on and on but I'll take Red over blue 24/7/365.

The author left out one major natural resource: water.

What happens if we go back to the range wars of the late 19th century? Will the red sea be able to control the flow of water to the blue islands?

Will the blue islands go to war with the red sea over water rights or will they pay a premium for access to water flowing south from the red rivers and lakes?

I pray each day for the separation of our country. I no longer want to be a part of the insane Democrat led states and want a divorce as soon as possible.

[packrat35]

I don’t care. I want a divorce. They can sink or swim.

Blue would die of hunger and thirst, with no electrical power, in misery and squalor.

[packrat35]

You say that like it matters. We don’t have fair elections and the Democrats are trying to corrupt them all.

Farmers would have to collude to keep prices higher.
