I fully support California’s right to exit the union. In fact, I believe it is the best idea I have heard from the leftists. Unfortunately, I see substantial roadblocks:

1. Socialists are moochers and an entirely independent California would not have a federal teet to suckle from.
2. Other leftists in the union would fight tooth and nail to keep them in the union.
