This Calexit stuff is funny. It’s thrown out there without any analysis of the real challenges, like:
- The U.S. would likely withdraw their military bases, a huge economic impact.
- California has unsustainable debt which the U.S. will no longer protect or guarantee.
- Most large corporations there are U.S. based, with the bulk of their business sales and operations in the rest of the states. Many of those companies would have to relocate to the U.S. or face additional tax and import burdens.
- The numbers of poor and socially-supported people are unsustainable.
- They don’t have enough power to support their state/country, nor the resources to make it.
- The don’t have enough water to support their state/country, nor the resources to draw it.
- The population is engaging in their own “Calexit”, by moving in vast numbers out of the state. These are productive middle class citizens and fed-up wealthy folks. The exodus in unsustainable and would require California to open their borders to immigration even more, creating an even greater burden on their social systems.
These are serious gaps in their plans, which don’t seem to rise to the level of discussion, even in these silly interviews. Calexit would be a disaster for California, and would be an amusing collapse to watch.
