Actually, CA needs to be broken up into about half a dozen states. WA and OR into two each - East and West”.

This Calexit stuff is funny. It’s thrown out there without any analysis of the real challenges, like:

- The U.S. would likely withdraw their military bases, a huge economic impact.

- California has unsustainable debt which the U.S. will no longer protect or guarantee.

- Most large corporations there are U.S. based, with the bulk of their business sales and operations in the rest of the states. Many of those companies would have to relocate to the U.S. or face additional tax and import burdens.

- The numbers of poor and socially-supported people are unsustainable.

- They don’t have enough power to support their state/country, nor the resources to make it.

- The don’t have enough water to support their state/country, nor the resources to draw it.

- The population is engaging in their own “Calexit”, by moving in vast numbers out of the state. These are productive middle class citizens and fed-up wealthy folks. The exodus in unsustainable and would require California to open their borders to immigration even more, creating an even greater burden on their social systems.

These are serious gaps in their plans, which don’t seem to rise to the level of discussion, even in these silly interviews. Calexit would be a disaster for California, and would be an amusing collapse to watch.

America has it’s own version of Quebec now. Constant whining and demanding but never actually leaving. Both far left places with some nice tourist attractions.

...want to restructure society on a medieval framework of Elites and Serfs (slaves)...
>

Has the author not SEEN the tax code; how much each of us ‘owe’ a large % of our lives to taxes? How those taxes are given to others w/o input (economic slavery)? Not aware of the areas/amount of ‘license’ one needs from govt to do....anything (exercise 2nd, ‘drive’, travel (visa), hell, even work on your OWN home)? How the BLM/Park Service/etc. presume all land/water/air is ‘theirs’.

Serfdom has BEEN in the U.S. a great many moon. Those whom believe the 13th ended slavery are woefully ignorant.

Tucker is now getting obvious madmen on his show. If he doesn’t watch it, he’ll turn into Morton Downey Jr.

____________

Madmen? Perhaps.

But did you think ten years ago that generals and soldiers would be debating men dressed as women in the miliarty?

These are trajectories to monitor. The world is going mad and this man is sending out the first shots in the next battle.

Culturally on the whole, conservatives have been losing.

In some important areas politically conservatives have been losing.

It is good to track this and not be dismissive.

It's dangerous!

A Godless nation cannot survive and will not survive.

A Godless nation populated by paranoid schizophrenics is in free fall!

Just pray that there will always be more of us than there are of them.

That is what people thought about transgender politics a very few years ago.

“it can’t be real.”

Did you watch the video? Clearly, the guy was unhinged in a way that Pentagon officials are not. They are just vile, spineless cowards who seem to have no idea that they are destroying the country. Or they don’t care because they have large pensions.

Yes, but he is of the same cloth as the trangender rights SJWs who proposed it to begin with. And we laughed.

I have seen the tax code. I understand that we are greatly burdened however, I have not seen open discussion about increasing and structuring serfdom and slavery on a policy proposal basis.

- California has unsustainable debt which the U.S. will no longer protect or guarantee.

They would also inherit either 1/50th of the national debt, or the debt on a per-capita basis, which would be considerably more.

That guy Tucker had on was IMO quite high on something. His body movements, expressions, and the content of his message told me he was messed up, and I do mean TOTALLY messed up. He most certainly did NOT speak for the majority of Californians either.

The guy that came on later was Victor Davis Hanson BTW.
