Well, I'll admit that my thinking on how secession should proceed is a little more involved than simply gathering a magical number of people somewhere between 1 and several million (since, as you say, it's not allowed for individuals and obviously allowed for several million) and then invoking the magic words "self evident truths" that instantly turns you into a different country and gives you all the property of the nation you've divided from that happens to be in whatever geographic area you now claim as your own.
I see it proceeding just like that Russian Social Scientist predicted some years back. The US will break up into six parts along natural and existing demographic fracture lines, and for exactly the reasons he put forth.
Why does it not surprise me that you're a fan of Putin's pet anti-American social scientist? You're aware that his prediction was that this should have happened five years ago, right?
The whole thing is contingent on a financial collapse, and such a thing is d@mned hard to predict with any accuracy because so many people are working so hard to keep confidence in the confidence game, going. There are millions of busy little hands trying to prop up this whole mess. When the public finally loses confidence in the currency, then the whole house of cards will collapse.
At what point will the rubes wake up and realize their stored value is stolen? I don't know, but when they finally do, do you doubt it is going to turn ugly?
What is your financial savvy? How much of our economic activity is the result of pump priming with borrowed federal dollars and how much of it is real?
Do you see the US finances remaining stable? If so, I want whatever you are smoking.
