WHATEVER I CALL IT………now you are ridiculous. Um….I think Trump was the first MAGAer bud.

YOU did not ask is it time to ditch California, you said, “Is it time to break up the United States”?

BIG difference bud, BIG difference. Geezus did you go commie and forget that Trump will solve all of this mess, even California?

How would YOUR house look if it were broken up? Weaker, disfunctional? Oh yes. A house divided will fall. Book it.

EDIT: California “R” belong to us, Trump needs to fix that state. If they go belly up, they will have to live with the pain.

No, it is not time to break up the US.

I prefer to let Nature take its course to remove CA and it will hopefully sink into the Pacific – we can get our fruit and vegetables from S. America.

I first read this book in the early 80’s and thought, “this guy is on to something”.

Best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. Next best time is right now. But, trees themselves plant the most trees, by far. No Johnny Appleseed’s necessary…or even effective, in the grand tree of things. “I think that I shall never see A poem lovely as a tree.”

As for countrees, they all come with clear-cutting lumberjacks. & more blue – the color of oxygen deprivation & sementic congestion – oxen than can be counted.

The map provided by HF is a credible projection — from 4-8 (9, if you count the islands). Hawaii would probably join the west coast (Ecotopia -LOL).

I speculate that Texas would try to go it alone, and the Breadbasket and the Foundry might realize each needs what the other has.

The times our children will be living in may be far too interesting!

What’s ” break up the United States” mean? Have the various breakaway entities physically break off the continent and float around in the oceans? Dig moats around them? Of course not. It means should the federal gov’t be broken up? YES, YES FUCKING YES. Are you shitting me? Kill it deader than honest abe. DEAD. MORTA!

Fuck no! It’s time to eradicate the real enemy that is trying to destroy and rebuild the USA for it’s own nefarious purposes. What was done to Mussolini should like like a picnic in the park compared to what needs to be done to our true enemy.

But the REAL enemy infests EVERY state, county, city, town, etc. government office building. Freedom will not come by simply respecting the sovereignty of the 50 independent states. It will come when the mentality that hands freedom over to those who claim to be our government ends, once and for all. Until that time, tyranny will rein within whatever artificial geographical boundary you draw. I think that simply destroying the Federal Register and abolishing the Federal Government would be a great start. The disease that infects the nation originates with DC ultimately. NO politician at ANY level of government is able to operate FREE of the Federal disease.

So you see why I have no faith that the real enemy will be conquered? Outlawing central banking and restoring value based money will eliminate most of the problems. The federal govt doesn’t need to end. It just needs to resume its rightful role per the Constitution. The individual states should have the powers that the feds currently reserve for themselves. State govt should fear the people and the fed govt should fear the states.

The constitution needs a few tweeks that the founders failed to include but until the real enemy is routed that will never happen. I doubt that most can even identify the real enemy given that we are trained to believe that the left, right, niggers, chinks, muzzies, sjw’s and assorted perverts should be each other’s enemies.

The “left” isn’t the problem any more than the right is. The left is symptom of a much bigger problem. A big component of that bigger problem is making you believe the left is the problem…….and it works so good that even the intelligent denizens of TBP miss it. Given that many TBP’ers don’t see or trace the symptoms back to the lowest common denominator, what chance do the sheople have of seeing it?

James Fenimore Cooper was right. If it happens it will be because public opinion was directed in a false direction. It will be due to ignorance of our standing and false memes.
The breaking up of the United States of America would mean that the Constitution of the United States of America would have to be abolished. The Constitution of the United States of America cannot be abolished by US citizens, nor by Congress. It would take a Constitutional amendment.
Congress does not have the authority to amend the Constitution on it’s own. Further it is the Constitution that created Congress. If abolished, then Congress and the rest of the Federal government is abolished. The Constitution is the authority given by the People. Take away the Constitution, and the contract is broken; the authority is returned back to the people.
United States citizens have no lawful standing to amend the Constitution of the United States of America. United States citizens have no part with this Constitution. United States citizens are citizens of Washington, D.C. They have no nexus to this Constitution. The Constitution of the United States of America only protects the rights of people domiciled in one of the states of the Union. If you don’t understand citizenship, and domicile, then read the article at this link, and be sure to study the references at the end of it.

Or you could remain willfully ignorant. It surprises me how many people just want to rant and display their ignorance.

The conservative states plus any portion of a “blue” state that agrees, declares as (the True Blue) United States of America (USA) and keeps the Constitution, Flag etc. USA Citizens must be able to demonstrate mastery of English, be employed or self sufficient unless disabled, and swear on the Bible to defend the Constitution and Country so help me God. The liberal areas will be designated Red Zone Areas (RZAs), geographically small and many will be isolated. Liberals must relocate to a RZA within 30 days or be turned over to the USA INS for deportation to a RZA.

rhs- I could be in favor of quarantine of mentally ill libnuts into their own area without support of those in the loyalist USA. Something tells me that when the welfare upkeep of the parasite segment ends, they will suddenly want to return to the productive side so as not to struggle daily in the third world gloom of the (RZA).

That is not a break up of the United States but a long overdue healing of this country.

I believe we are saying the same thing a different way; I’d be very selective about who we let re-enter the USA.
