That is a GREAT idea!

It can't be any worse...

Leave the USA with just Washington DC? We could start over from scratch— Get rid of Unions, Entitlements, Political Correctness, Debts. Let China hold worthless bonds (just like we did when the Commies took over China. Mexico did the same thing to us in 1910. Our credit would suffer but—if we go back to the gold standard and pump our own oil we would not need to spend anything. Knock the foreigners out of our industry by getting rid of NAFTA. Rebuild our factories and infra-structure. It would be hard and we would lower our standard of living for a while but—in the end it might be better— Who, what person could we build a nation around? Who is our new Washington?

IIRC, that was not the general opinion rendered a year or so ago when the option of a Constitutional Convention was discussed.  Things could be MUCH worse, given the opportunity.

 

The stupidification of the "empowered" majority is observably exploited at every opportunity by politically astute activist minority miscreants such as those who cleverly managed to turn Colorado blue.

 

The process of American Reformation should be deliberately slow and driven by Truth, Logic, and Reason - not by fire in the minds of men possessed by political emotion.
