then by implication there is no reason why a state can't leave with the approval of Congress as well

Yes because we know Congress will willingly vote to lose part of their tax source...hmmm, what was it the 16th President said was one of the most important issues to him in his First Inaugural Address?

In his Texas v. White decision, Chief Justice Chase seemed to hold out that possibility

The man who gave us fiat money to finance internal improvements and was chosen by a worthless man to sit on SCOTUS. Yes let's listen to his opinion...
