It doesn’t end, those who forget history are dammed to repeat it.
In this case we are looking at repeating a lot more than just the Civil war. Rome is burning and Cesar is on the way to ‘save’ it.
Dictatorship is our most likely fate, althou i must admit if we do split up we stand a far better chance of preserving liberty thou intrastate competition. Some states will do better than other at resisting dictators, and the ones that do will remind the ones that don’t what they lost so that they can reclaim it.
Forget statues, let’s not leave out the Washington Monument!!! /sarc
