On the other hand if California split from the US I think that would clinch a deal for us. The resulting country would be awesome. We even have a new name for it.. Cascadia.

It would have to be the People's Republic of Cascadia. California is a liberal pit of incompetence and socialism and we have been bankrupt for several years.

We are run entirely by the school teacher's unions.

Our leaders are named Boxer, Pelosi, Feinstein, Waxman and Arnie.

If you join us we will tax you, regulate you, bankrupt you and run all your businesses into another state.
