I understand your anger and your frustration but no. They are Americans. Much like family...you can be angry at them but you don't cut em loose.Well, it is probobly just more of his hyperbolic logorrhea but its an interesting prospect. I say let them go! The Blue States would be better off. Red states contribute less in Federal tax revenues while getting more aid. They elect bigots and Fascists to state and national office. They want to deny people the right to vote and want to stifle the free press. They want to deprive people of access to health care including reproductive care ., and there is so much more.
As I have said before, perhaps we should have not have fought the Civil War. If we had just let the south go , we would have been better off in the long run. Sure the scourge of slavery would have lingered longer but that system would crumbled in time as it has elsewhere. It can also be said that slavery never really ended but rather, it morphed into and system of indentured servitude in the form of prison labor camps comprised mostly of black men. So what dis the Civil War really accomplish. Not much other that preserving the union consisting of states with vastly different view and values and producing an increasingly divided nation.
Rush Limbaugh Claims Conservative States Are ‘Trending Toward Secession’ | Michael Stone (patheos.com)
I actually think that we’re trending toward secession. I see more and more people asking what in the world do we have in common with the people who live in, say, New York? What is there that makes us believe that there is enough of us there to even have a chance at winning New York? Especially if you’re talking about votes.
I agree.
I'm tired of supporting their deadbeat asses. While they destroy democracy, shred our constitution and take freedom from those who don't agree with them.
They are a drain on our resources and hate the rest of the nation.
I say let them go. First I want them to pay for all the federal infrastructure in their states that belongs to the United States. If they want to keep that infrastructure then have to pay for it.
I say let them support themselves and live in their authoritarian state they want so badly.
Once the leave, they can't come back. They can't come to us with their hands out wanting our tax dollars anymore.
I think it's more disgust and frustration. I learned it's a waste of time being angry with those people.
I have no problem letting them go. If they want to leave the union, go for it. No American life is worth forcing them to stay.
They want to live in an authoritarian garbage dump, let them.
That's what they're trying to turn the whole nation into. They already have turned the red states into garbage dumps. Or most of them. Let them live as they want to live.
Most of all, let the rest of us live in the real United States of America.
Maybe they will finally be happy and leave the rest of us alone.
If preserving freedom, democracy and what America is really about means letting those garbage dump states leave the union, I am all for it.
Your blue states are under lockdown while red states aren't and you want to accuse someone of authoritarianism? Lol.
Priceless.
