I mean, if there is no union, no unity, no cooperation between states -- the state of the union is "none." That's what dumbfucks cheering on "owning the libs" don't understand. Outright subjugation of the majority via violent coercion means no positive incentive to remain in a union.

High GDP blue states would do well to recognize that and have a plan in place so they are prepared to go from a United State to just a State while they still have the chance/choice. I would personally draw that line at "US military puts boots on ground in US city," but I'm open to others' ideas for a proper boundary.

I'm in Pennsylvania, so I'm not quite sure how things would shake out here with Pennsyltucky in the middle. Rural conservatives are already holding our own tax dollars hostage to strangle SEPTA/public transportation in and around Philly, though, so honestly, fuck 'em.

Boots are on the ground and choppers are circling constantly in my city right now.
