Wonder if the c/exiters have studied any history. By my recollection, this course did not work out too well for some other rebels.

You assume that will happen, but you know won’t

They are a paying customer for both water and power...

They just don’t know the new rates...

A nice 25 % increase sounds about right...

That's funny, I celebrate secession every 4th of July: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."

You either believe Californians have a right to institute a government pursuant to their happiness, or you oppose the Declaration of Independence's 'self-evident truths'.

You’re actually against California leaving? That’s like being against losing a migraine. And there’s a few other pains we could do without - Portland, Seattle, NYC..
