Quote from d08:
The difference being that both the SU and Rome consisted of conquered territories that were actually separate countries, with their own cultures. This is not the case with the US.
Although US could collapse if the warpath is continued and debt increases at the same rate.
Really? The US is one culture? We have more cultures here than anywhere else in the world. Do you think Hawaii would stay a state if the US collapsed? How about California? California has tons of debt now, but if it separated and the people didnt pay federal tax anymore to washington and it all stayed in state, california would be debt free and have lots of money left over.
Arizona & New Mexico & Nevada would likely separate too. If we collapsed I would say that about 60-70% of the US would try to rebuild the US and 30-40% would separate so they wouldnt be under the thumb of Washington & the Federal reserve.
