Hannity foresees states leaving union if fed government continues ‘radicalized, abusive’ pattern

On his Friday radio show, conservative talker and Fox News host Sean Hannity warned that the United States may fall apart if tax rates remain high.

“The states are now fighting and battling against their own federal government,” Hannity said. ”Same thing with individuals. If you live in a state like New York, New Jersey, California [or] one of these high-tax states [where] 60-plus cents of every dollar goes to taxes, you’ll say, ‘What the hell am I doing this for?’”

“A lot of people have told me that,” Hannity continued. “A lot of people are moving. … I noticed that Bobby Jindal moved to remove his state income tax. He’s not stupid. You know what’s going to happen in Louisiana? The same thing that is happening in Texas and Florida — their populations are soaring. They’re doing a lot better. State governments are fine. They’re surviving. They don’t have the property taxes they do in New York, which is obscene. In New York, you just pay and pay and pay and pay.”

States with lower taxes may soon decide they want to stop shouldering the burden of states with higher taxes, Hannity warned.

They have to get their food, wood, oil and coal from somewhere. They sure don’t want it “in their back yard” because they are too stupid to realize how important it is to be self-sufficient.

You may be right. They may not be scared or care. It shows their ignorance.

I truly hope you are right. The flame of liberty must shine, whatever the cost.

Before or after the Federal air strikes on the governor's mansion and state legislature?

Secession doesn't mean war. The FEDs would be making a huge mistake if they did that.

An airstrike against a seceding state might work 1 time. After which about half the Air Force and Navy defects to the seceding state(s) and that little trick won’t work a second time.
