Why? Because they’re butt-hurt.
I am okay with it. They need to pay up their share of the 20+ trillion debt first.
Actually, I think that we should do everything possible to help them.
How many times did this guy use the word ‘silly’?
We fled California in 2015, best thing we ever did.
I realize the writer lives with all that Nitwittery and I feel for him, sorta, yet I’m still happy that so many so-called “progressive” congregate in that golden land ... far, far away from me.
Just hand the whole state over to Mexico, within 18 months all the libs will be begging to be taken back.
( this plan would only work if we built a border wall around California )
California lives off the benefits of the printed, unbacked US Dollar, issued by our unconstitutional Federal Reserve, which is (temporarily anyway) accepted as the world’s reserve currency. Our completely unbacked currency also allows massive borrowing by Fed.gov, which supports California’s asinine progressivism and massive nanny state.
That would all go away if CA became independent.
If they were to secede, it would be interesting to see what kind of Military they set up to protect their new country. Would the far left loons out there even allow California to have a military?
Shhh don’t tell them. They NEED to leave, it’s important.
California....please vote to secede from the USA. Make Obama & Clinton your leaders!!! In ten years, Mexico will have defeated you, and taken over California. They will then throw out all American citizens and all illegals into the Pacific Ocean!!! Praise be to Californians....the Democrat, dummies, they all are!!!
If they were serious about secession they would try to amend the US Constitution.
The big advantage would be that Californians would no longer have to pay federal income tax, but I’m sure the state would have to raise taxes as well.
A major downside would be a big loss to the state if all the defense contractors move out and military bases are shut down.
I said in a California only thread:
1. Economy
2. Security
3. Immigration
All the above are not major issues for the majority of Californians. They are not feeling the pressure that the rest of the country feels, or not as much.
It does not mean they should secede either.
Status quo politically is OK.
IMHO, the US should annex Baja California. All of the “progressives” can move there, then build the wall.
Like other “third world” countries that rattle their Sabres regularly (i.e. N. Korea), californistan needs money.
Standing on the verge of bankruptcy, they figure the Feds will toss them a bone to keep then in the union (for the 55 Electorial, dem, votes, don’t you see).
With democrats, and RINOs, always follow the money.
Head's up...Jim & John Rob - get out now, while you can
California = Rome
Calexit is a good thing
If California secedes how will they pay for the water they’re currently taking from other states?
