Let's say that tomorrow New England, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Kentucky, Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin and Minnesota say that they are fed up with the Republican obstruction in Congress and announce that they are leaving the United States. They hold referendum among their population, which pass overwhelmingly, and declare that they are now the sovereign nation of Northeast North America. They claim that all federal property and facilities within their borders are now their property - including Fort Knox and the gold reserve. They say they are not responsible for any of the $16 trillion in debt that has been run up, leaving that responsibility to the remaining states. They refuse to support U.S. initiatives in Afghanistan instead insisting that all their soldiers be returned to the states immediately. In your opinion is that a constitutional remedy?
That would be my dream. Go. Be gone. Take California with you.
I'd say "Republican obstruction" may not be an offense worthy of breaking ranks, but divorces are often over little things. Northeast North America will probably be pissed when they find their Fort Knox rings are really cubic zirconia, and what's left of the Union will be equally angry over paying Afghan stepchild support.
