I should add - put in the mix the “regionalism” that Obama will start pushing soon. The GOP didn’t even mention this in the campaign. It’s the plan to make the red suburbs share revenues with the blue cities via innovative application of the civil rights laws. In my native Wisconsin, for example, Waukesha County would have to share its tax revenues with Milwaukee County. When that finally becomes clear to your average moronic suburban soccer mom, then calls for secession will really become insistent. Hurry the day. This Navy veteran is done with the Blue counties. It’s over. Stick a fork in it. It’s not worth saving.
We already have something like that here in Texas with "Robin Hood" where rich school districts have to share their Property Tax revenues with poorer districts.
