Alright, but make Texas a country and Staten Island a state of Texas.
hell, there’s 500,000 of us on this Island.
Tried that once down here. Wonder if the Fed monster will leave us alone this time?
I’ve been saying for at least 20 years that we might as well draw a line from Seattle to Miami and secede. Demographics are all that matters when you have unlimited immigration. Go to any grade school in Southern California. THAT is California.
Walter Williams wrote about this years ago. We discussed it here.
All of those who want to turn America into Venezuela can move to Venezuela.
Problem solved.
I don’t actually believe that the COUNTRY is split.
The left wants us to believe that when the real issue is those in power who want to ruin the country.
So they try to tell us the country is split.
However, if the split is real, it’s between city folk and rural, grassroots America.
Or, according to Kid Rock...
The article repeated the lie that rural citizens are overrepresented in the Senate. Wow, the libs do repeat a lie until people believe it.
Someone took my tag line seriously!
I see problems. Who keeps the military? Who pays for welfare?
I want to be in the Red Zone. Alas, I live in the blue at the moment.
Fine with me. Give half the country to the libs - along with their friends the illegals, convicts, millenial snow flakes and people who want free stuff.
We will take the other half with productive people, Second Amendment supporters and patriots.
There is no logical dividing line, because our differences are urban vs. rural, with the suburbs being pulled in both directions.
Why not? Because the split is urban vs rural, not state vs state.
This is idiocy. Plain and pure idiocy.
1. The left can not tolerate the existence of any other ideology. Period.
If we were to “break up” the left would keep coming at the remnants to take possession of them too. To keep them out, in all their usual locusts, refugee and other guises would demand slaughter at the borders of those areas resisting leftism that would be intolerable to the kind of spineless, cowardly idiot that thought running away would work in the first place.
2. We built this. They just parasite off of it.
It is ours. All of it. Running away wont work. Running away will still require much bloodshed. Might as well do the bloodshed and keep the land.
That’s what Ive been saying..enough of this co exist crap..the left hates us and we hate the left..they think we are evil and vise versa..so why not just split the country in two..the lefties can have their half, their own Supreme Court, Congress, Senate, White House..they can have all the illegal aliens they could ask for, all the socialized medicine they could ever imagine..and on the other half of the country, can be the rest of us, who can live in FREEDOM with our own House, Senate, White House, and Supreme Court
A better idea
Why dont the left wing, racist, socialist/Commie malcontents just emigrate to Russia, China, Cuba, NK, Africa, and Venezuela? A built in solution to their issues. They get the tax rates and economy they want, no guns, no religion. Lennons Imagine, right before their very eyes.
Plus they get to diversify their new countries
Makes everyone happy. Well, except fir the Russians, Chinese, NK. Cubans et al. But hey, since when did the left care whether the home population liked them or wanted them around?
There is no rational way to split the country, even with a Civil War 2.
Along what lines? Political parties? Political ideologies? Cities v rural? States?
One problem with splitting is that the Liberal/Leftist/Socialist side needs money from the others. They eventually run out of their own money.
Another problem is that too many from the Californias, etc., have moved to other states. Why are they leaving paradise? Then, they are slowly turning those states purple and blue. So will we need armed borders or wall to keep the 2 separate?
Not that easy. CA gets their drinking water and electricity from other western states(because they refuse to build reservoirs). Goods and services are trucked and trained and shipped and piped all over the lower 55 states. Plus military bases in blue states. Plus financial outfits and company hq’s all over.
The last time this was proposed here, we ended up with a name-calling match. For my part, I would be glad to find some small corner of the world where my wife and I could find safety from these people until we die (naturally, not with their “medical assistance”).
