I have supported a secession for a long, long, long time.

If I could live in a country that backed its currency and didnt spy on its citizens and actually followed the rule of law I think that would be great.

Whether such a country encompassed the current 50 states or not is irrelevant to me. I honestly think we would be better off as 3 countries, the Northeast , the West Coast and the Midwest+South. Having one super centralized entity is overrated, and generally only good for the elites in any society.
