Eliminate 3 States from the Union at our current juncture What Three states would it be?

I dont care about how the go bye bye.

What three states would you remove from the Union if you had a choice? What would you hope would happen if they didnt exist? How would we better or worse as a union?

For sake of conversation, I'd eliminate Washington State, Minnesota and Virginia.

My reasoning? New York, California and Colorado have waaaaay too much cool stuff in it to eliminate. I mean don't get me wrong, Washington has some cool stuff.
