It just occurred to me that if we told the Californians that if they left the union they could have gay marriage, free everything for everyone, and set whatever policies they wanted on whatever they wanted, they might actually leave on their own.
Upon further review, why stop at California? Now that Virginia, Ohio, and Indiana have joined the unholy coastal alliance, let them all go. Look at yesterday’s electoral map.
Yeah, we’ll have hurricanes, but we’ll also have the oil, oil shale, natural gas, plenty of the cleanest coal (Grand Escalante Staircase), wind power generation, and we have no problem with nuclear power.
Just letting the imagination run wild.
