“ One of the reasons the Dem’s would be scared sh*tless of this, if the Southeast-Midwest and Mountain stats, seceded, that’s where all the food and oil are. The Left would be helpless.”
Thank you! I have been trying argue that very point all day with liberals and all they say is we would not survive without the blue states tax revenue. I tried telling them the have negative revenue and if we go we take livestock, the grain belt, the Colorado river which is where SoCal gets it water, the oil to include underground reserves, and we already have most industry thanks to Trump. All they had left was Silicon Valley and the entertainment industry and they are on their way out too. I was sickened by the libs ignorance and man are they hateful. I’m glad there are others who understand that Blue States, mostly just isolated enclaves really, would be devastated.
If you haven’t already, read Matt Bracken’s “When the Music Stops”. Very interesting article. http://threepercenters.org/index.php?topic=1930.0
Liberals, on the whole, have no idea about basic economics. Watch this, from the supporters of none other AOC.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=roeQHQSlIc8
They don’t understand basic things like deficits, etc. And they think that government is the answer to all their problems. The very problems that they created and now offer solutions to. And if the government they seek for help isn’t big enough, they keep climbing the ladder until they get to Uncle Sugar and then they throw their temper tantrums and with the help of scumbag RINOs, they get their way.
As for the tax revenue that the Blue States bring to the table, once again, it isn’t about what you bring in, it’s about what you dole out. And the first thing to go would be all the social welfare bennies going to folks that, shouldn’t even be here, nor many be getting.
