  5. Red States would have all of the natural gas and oil reserves.

    Big Tech is moving to Texas.

    Other Red States possess a booming agriculture economy.

    Would love to see the Midwest and Southeast break away from Communist New York and California which are billions in debt, high crime and high taxes plus underfunded pension plans.

    Would be worth it simply not to hear Governor Cuomo's lying horse face anymore.

    Good luck Blue States enjoy your Communist utopia. You want us but we sure as hell don't want you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  8. It is not treason to want a peaceful separation when the union can no longer be realistically maintained. Let the left have their states and go their own way and let the right have its peace so it can watch the failure from a distance and not be drug down with it. We want a divorce.
