Draw a line down the Mississippi. Communists to the West, Americans to the East. Given everyone 10 years to make a choice and move.

Nope. Here's why your idea won't work worth a darn: I am not giving all of my home to the commies, and I'm guessing you don't understand the whole of what is out west, or you wouldn't be ready to give it up so quickly. And I guarantee I'm not alone in my way of thinking.

I've often thought that it will come to something like that. Many of us, like yours truly, have stayed in blue states because of family obligations, work, familiarity.

But if we did something like this, I'd cut work and familiarity loose and drag my remaining family with me. I would take my chances finding a new job and a new life.

I also think ten years is too long. Brexit is imperiled by the length of time baked into its execution (in my opinion). There will always be those seeking to prevent the hosts from escaping the parasites.

Screw that. I hate humidity.

Americans to the East.

And give the commies all of the good skiing in the country?!! I don't think so!

That would throw Texas to the wolves. It will have to be a negotiated line. And yes, it would take some years for people to move where they preferred, like the Partition of India/Pakistan. I envision a Craig's List for house swappers.
