When the USSR went kaput

There's an outside chance that the same thing may happen to the U.S.

States will simply refuse to recognize the federal authority in Washington, D.C.

Then the states will secede peacefully.

Washington, D.C. represents the ruling elite.

The former Soviet Union had the similar problem with the centralization of authority in Moscow.

A further thought, NO ONE wanted to put the Soviet Union back together.

The demise of the Soviet Union was complex. It was not just simply Reagen forcing them into bankruptcy.

The satellite country leaders were jealous of the centralized power and corruption and wanted it for themselves. They didn’t support Lech Walesa out of the goodness of their hearts.

Now there was and individual who changed history. We have Trump.

But I do think we have proper leadership in many states that understand freed and responsibility.

That will be the test.
