You know, I've always been interesting in seeing what would happen if th country did that.

West of the Mississippi goes Conservative, Capitalist, strict Constituionalist, limited Federal power. East of the Mississippi goes Socialist, Welfare State, massive Federal power.

Any bets on which part would be the most productive and progress the furthist the fastest?

It would be interesting to see where each side was in 10 years.

We could do one better than that... just cut off the large cities and any county with a riverboat casino and we're free at last...

I know the answer! The East side would be a pit! Dirty, disgusting and on welfare! :)
