Take your electoral votes and exit stage left...
Pray, as soon as this happens, Kalifornia a separatist state, the San Andres fault ruptures and drops Kalifornia into the Pacific...
Minnesolong...Minnesota leaving the US to join the socialist paradise of Venezuela
There has already been a ‘separatist’ movement ongoing for several years now.
It is called the State of Jefferson movement, and I support it as a bare minimum if we can not get the state to split into its actual existing components: NorCal, the Bay Area (San Fran and the surrounding locales), CentralCal (the Central Valley regions), and SoCal (Centred around Los Angels and primarily Mexican).
Some even argue for six separate parts.
Whatever works best. Just let us have our own voices instead of having to live with what the looney libs in San Fran and Bezerkley keep saddling us with!
“State of Jefferson movement”
Is an attempt to gain political power in Congress and the Electoral collage. We are NOT granting Ca more senators or more House Reps.
If they plan to have no Soc Sec and Medicare like the Texan separatists want to do, it drives all the older folks back to the US, giving a much lower cost of government. It also provides a large supply of lower cost housing for the population as they exit and most sell their residence.
maximum fun.
What National Debt? The US Congress contracted to borrow the paper from the private for profit bank. The way I figure it, we own them nothing. They shouldn’t have borrowed it, but I did not sign anything saying I was party to this contract.
Why would it drive older people out of Texas if there is no SS? People in other countries can draw their SS no matter their citizenship. Older people will live there for the lower cost of living, and spend their checks from Uncle Sam there too.
There is absolutely no way that any of us here at FR will be so lucky as to see California leave the Union. I wonder if California is a net recipient or net payer of Federal income tax dollars. Also, I wonder how much welfare per capital the typical Californian gets.
That doesn’t mean that we can’t be supportive of it though, does it?
Then say goodbye to the guy who runs this site.
Please ....
Would the Feds keep all the land they’ve stolen in these states ?
You are aware you're perilously short on electricity and fresh water, right? Guess you'll have to work that out with your neighbors.
Military bases remain the property of USA, of course. We'll take the precaution of stringing another row (or two) of razor wire and generally beefing up security, since outside the wire is now enemy territory.
While we're in the wire-stringing mood, we're gonna need a fence on CA's eastern and northern borders. The southern end? You work that out with Mexico.
Don't know if there is still a US Mint in San Francisco, but if so it goes away immediately. Can't let foreigners make US currency, of course.
Your debt is yours now, don't ask us for a bailout.
And you can buy your own bullet train if you still want one.
We don't want to split up families, so Calexicans (or whatever you call yourselves now) can visit the US with a valid short-term visa.
Working or establishing residency? Green cards might be available someday, if we ever decide we need you. Don't hold your breath.
Oh, and BTW, If you overstay your visa, you will be deported immediately, and future visa requests denied.

As they said in Ghostbusters, I love this plan, I’m excited to be a part of it! They want to go, and most of the rest of us would be happy to see them go.
Californication.
Good riddance!
No CA means no more dems win the presidency.
The electoral math would be hard against them :-)
Nancy Pepsi isn’t going to let you steal her seat out from under her.
But if you want to sit around pretending go for it.
