“First state(s) to leave the Union will immediately become the wealthiest nation(s) in North America and the world.”

They will need that wealth... I'm thinking that unless the seniors will get a substitute for social security, the Vets and retired military get their retirement and health care, the folks on public assistance and medicare get theirs, and the states pay their soldiers cops and fireman the succeeding state will quickly run dry on cash...

States can recruit volunteer doctors, nurses and medical professionals to keep public clinics going.
With blooming economy and full employment the state will have much higher revenues to run the gov;
plus with all the fed taxes eliminated, people will be much more well-off and can afford to donate more to charities and consume more to contribute to the states economy.
As for social security - states can keep on withholding soc sec taxes for a pre-determined period of time, keep them in the states’ own soc security fund to pay for the current retirees, while dismantling soc sec entirely for the younger(can pay back their contribution to fed soc sec. when states have built up a surplus.)
Possibility is unlimited. We are choked now because of all the heavy taxation, burdensome regulations, unprecedented deficits and debts. Once the states balance the budget and expand the economy, the prosperity that ensues will solve many of the problems we have now.
