Wow! I heard it was only a couple of states, but now they are reporting 20 states. I'm sure nothing will come of this, but it looks like with the division of our country, things like this will continue.

Get Colorado & New Mexico to join & the US is split down the middle. I have to admit that it's getting kind of silly.

Maybe we could then someday have another Civil war too?

Nothing like a frivolous waste of political posturing that accomplishes nothing, and distracts legislatures from doing their jobs.

Good luck with that. I'd love to see this broken down by how much each state receives the federal aid and population.

Call me crazy, but I'd bet its either going to be a civil war or a revolutionary war.

The strange thing is that the secessionist states get back more in Federal dollars than the taxpayers in those states pay in.

I say let them secede. Just get all the nukes out the silos in the Dakotas first.
