Cool !! We can get serious about welfare reform in our country and send all those that refuse to work running to the blue country.

Lets see how they feel about their precious social programs when every one of them that is working is paying for ten that refuse. If they don't need to buy people's votes any more will they still offer their programs ?

This could be really good.


That reminds me of William Johnstone's "Ashes" book series where the setting was after an atomic war between the US and USSR, General Ben Raines took three states in the South, broke off the USA and made "The Tri-States." After that, he went around the US and Canada cleaning up the country of pukes and other assorted bad guys. LAter on, they were known as the SUSA, Southern United States of America. People can come to the SUSA and live but there was very little welfare, if you are not able bodied, that's fine you were taken care of but if you are able bodied, you were expected to get a job, join the military or put in sweat equity for your welfare. I remember General Raines turned away people who wanted welfare but were able bodied to the "rump USA" that was run by a Clinton-like President.

I really liked William Johnstone's "Ashes" book series.

Really hard to find though.
