Be careful what you wish for. California pays a frick ton in taxes and is generally one of the wealthiest states in America.

You think those businesses paying all those taxes won't up and move?

And the loss of federal revenue flowing in to the state would crush it.

Then they should have no problem in funding their socialist programs and their illegal immigrants they want to take in without federal funding (our tax dollars)...

California (and the large liberal states) pay significantly more in taxes than they receive in services.

Effectively, liberals subsidize Republican failures.

People and businesses. Both of which can move, and will move.

California will never secede because being part of the US is the only way they can maintain their lavish social programs.

In each case, state leaders worried that immigration enforcement would deter undocumented residents from cooperating with state laws or accessing vital services.


Vital services like Voting

To out it bluntly, california is not a utopia paradise that liberals on here make it out to be. It's the most difficult state to live comfortably in if you are poor.

There are areas such as imperial county and some parts of bay area that are worse than anything you'd find in appalachia or the south.

California pays more in Federal Tax than they receive.

What California will lose is access to water.

They will also lose many of the business that produce that great economic engine they like to brag about so much.

It won't be, because I'm not on an exchange plan. And because Republicans have shown they won't repeal it.

Sounds like obstructing a federal law enforcement officer in the performance of his duty, a crime. ICE can't compel states to use resources to help them, but they have jurisdiction everywhere. Throw these tards in federal prison


It's only when you start doing that that the bullshite "sanctuary city" shite will stop.

And the population within liberal states pays more tax on whole to the federal government than services they receive back. The same cannot be said of Republican states.

Helluva claim.

Please write a report on the net tax contributions per capita to the Federal government for each state so we can compare.

Net tax contribution = money paid in less benefits received.

Would love to see how much wealth is being spread around.
