Most all seniors vote.
So there’s nearly 3 mil who won’t want to give up their Medicare.
I’d like to see it put to a vote, but you are correct. I don’t think a workable majority is possible. Everything is to intertwined with the beast that is our government.
Right today if Texas seceded claiming all federal assets within it's boundaries, relinquishing all financial claims on the US and disavowing all financial liabilities to the US, assuming all liabilities to its citizens previously held by the US, Texas would be in great financial shape and the US would be hurting bad.
If you expanded it to a gulf coast coalition of Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Alabama and Florida, the disparity in the financial and economic condition of the coalition vs. the remaining US would be staggering.
