Can you imagine cutting ties to DC? Your state throwing the Federal Boot off of your neck? Nirvana.
My state? I live in the People's Republic of Maryland, one of the biggest of big government states. I'm here for family reasons after retiring from political polling, but I'd move to The Lone Star Republic faster than you can say "freedom" if they either seceded or expelled the socialist states (or even just the big-government-communist districts) from the Union. Personally, I like the idea of expulsion.
