That would be crazy if we had an ocean and desalination technology. And a sun. And wind. And yes oil too. I digress. #USA

California's economy couldn't survive on it's own.


Oh, and let that liberal dirtbag area drift off to sea.

Texas is "ok" for water.

It was just 2 years ago they were in a tremendously bad drought.
A little climate change and they could see worse

This is incorrect. Also makes you look even more foolish as the port of Long Beach is next to port of LA and they are the 2 busiest in the United States. Where do you think all the Asian cargo ships go?



Not to mention the Bay Area

This would be such a win for America on so many levels please make it happen.

1. Way less likely ever to have a liberal President
2. Less liberal legislators in congress
3. All "smart" liberals not living in Cali will leave the USA for their mecca.
4. The rest of the country will not have to carry their state welfare programs.
5. Our Immigration problem will be fixed since they will openly welcome illegals and support them.

Rest of the country may vote to get rid of California too. Sounds like a capital idea to me.

id give it 10 years until they asked to rejoin union. Social policies would destroy that place in record time.

California has one of the worst Meth problems I have seen in any state I have traveled to.

I'm only missing Maine, north dakota, south dakota, and Minnesota.

The state has serious issues and is slowly pricing out all of their small business owners with environmental restrictions which aren't effective.

While I can only wish that would happen the facts are it is actually just moving north and maybe slightly inland.

Great anecdote.

It's a fact that Kentucky, Louisiana, and Mississippi rank in the bottom 10% in poverty rate and education. Include Alabama and you have 4 states in the bottom 10% of the US economy

Add all those states up and the costs of social programs are miniscule to that of just southern California.

Colorado River may just dry up on its own before any of this happens

No right to secede under federal law...

Try the fricking Constitution (particularly, the 9th and 10th Amendments).

And since someone will bring it up, Texas v. White is a shaky precedent.

Those states give nothing back to the US. Of course the State with more people will have more people on social programs. But I'm pretty sure Louisiana and Mississippi have a higher percentage of folks on welfare programs.

I also pretty sure that you have no local water or electricity. guess that shite will just stay free?

look at it this way, the state may have a shot to succeed and be profitable, but you really think that state wouldn't implode with the current social issues? you would be over run with immigrants in under 5 years.
