If you leave the United States and just walk away, none of that shit is your problem… Cause you’re no longer part of the United States… (Theoretically) Who cares about their problems?? The whole point is that they’re fucking it up so it’s time to leave.
I guess on the west coast it’s easy cause DC is “over there”, if you’re in Vermont or something it’s more right at your doorstep.
This is all just chatter anyway, in practical terms the US wouldn’t just let that happen. in other practical terms though, we need to recognize that the US federal government is where progress goes to die, as they’ve demonstrated over and over again. If you want a better future for your community, and the next generation (on a global scale, really) I’m sure your “blue state, USA” will have better intentions than the stagnant gerentocracy located in Washington DC.
