We really have no choice now. The feds are too in debt to be anying but a burden to future generations. They appear to only have two ways forward. World war or more fake bubble economies. Nothing but stuck on stupid and crooked to the core.
You should not discount state sovereignty as an option. It is constitutional, as confirmed by the Ninth and Tenth Amendments, and could be the way back to a free constitutional republic, at least at the state level. If tiny, resource-poor Hong Kong could be economically successful in the free-market economy, so could any state.
