It’s simply not possible to separate socialists from a free society... because they are more expansive than capitalists... and yet so dependent upon the very system they seek to destroy.
If we were to split along ideological lines, with liberals on one side, and conservatives on the other, The liberals would move into the conservative side and start the whole process over again.... and in the long haul, complete loss of capitalism in favor of socialism would result.
Why? because they would have succeeded in the time tested tactic of:
DIVIDE AND CONQUER!
To keep (or at least discourage) the freeloaders from moving into free states, the free states should carefully amend their constitutions to have as ironclad as possible provisions against enacting anything that even smells like socialism from 200 miles away.
IOW, proactively keep out socialism. Even just a balanced budget requirement, as most states have, could keep in check a lot of fiscal mischief. Without moola, the Libs have very little influence on policy.
The only reason Obambi has been able to take over healthcare is because he's got those groves of Obambimoney trees -- you know, his stash -- out behind the White House where he can just pick trillion dollars off the the branches any time he wants.
