will hold a referendum to secede from the US to become an independent country like Quebec did in 1980, 1995. probably, ten years from now. Governor Perry thought about it for Texas, and he wanted to become US president!
Great. Let the Mexicans and black gangs battle for scraps while whites flee that bankrupt liberal shithole in droves.
I think that might describe the future of California. I'm living on the Central Coast, the weather is good but there isn't anything else keeping me in the state and the taxes are punishing.
If California separated, conservatives would come here in droves and kick out all the liberals, get rid of their bankrupting policies, and California would be the most prosperous nation on Earth.
I think it's an awesome idea. Let California leave! If Illinois followed suit, we'd be much better off as a county.
They won't leave. They can't afford it and they know it. The next big quake will be used as a smokescreen to do a backdoor bailout.
How can California and Illinois leave? Their parasitic, tit-sucking paradigm is dependent upon makers paying for their largess. Lose the makers and they collapse.
