Nah. The Articles of Confederation were a disaster. And in this day and age there is no competing on the world state with 50 balkanized States.

The problem is that a Nation can not be powerful without a consensus of some sort. We have zero consensus on anything.

Essentially this would split us up culturally. Now is the time.

I kind of like the idea of individual states, but I’m an old fart. The wave of the future is an all-powerful one-world government. I just hope I don’t live long enough to see it.

Feh. You cannot get a consensus in a room with 6 like-minded people. Check out almost ANY thread on FR for easy proof, LOL.
