US Super Regions?

Anonymous
Trump is already weakening US economic power. Blue states want to preserve what they have built over the past 250 years. Maybe if the GOP treated the country as one, rather than being divisive and derisive of the "liberal bubble" which is, in fact, more cosmopolitan and accepting of different cultures and lifestyles, we would be in a better place, oh well.

If Democrats were smart, they would lower the federal income tax to 5%, equalize earned income and capital gains rates (both at 5%), establish progressive tax brackets for the corporate tax rate (create a real wedge between Big Business and SMEs), raise their state income taxes by a corresponding amount, and then let Red States deals with the fallout.

That's how you "get back" at states led by Republican elites. They would absolutely crater without federal spending.


Do we get to keep Yellowstone? It's a national treasure the repubs/magas left to their own devices would just pillage and plunder it into oblivion.

Stop trying to whitewash your history. We know what your motives are and we, as Americans in the name of Abe Lincoln, won;t let it happen. Crawl back under your rock.

No they are not. They talk the talk but do not walk the walk.

California is the largest agricultural state. And it doesn’t just produce corn and soybeans like most of the other large agricultural states.

Not really. Nost of the food grown in the midwest are cash crops for export or corn to make artificial sweeteners and high fructose corn syrup. The midwest does not really feed the country and if you were an actual American, you would know that.

NY, CA, MD, PA, WA, NH all have good agricultural and seafood production. We’ll be fine.

Ok, and red states will need money and jobs. We can give money in exchange for food. Democrats are fine with free trade, we aren’t the fool cheering for tariffs and kidnapping foreigners.

Old Russian propaganda. This was promoted over a decade ago under the guise of social science from Russia.

Don’t fall for it. Besides it gives Trump the authority to keep the union together by any means necessary.

Regardless of who promoted the idea originally, breaking up the US or at least providing regional autonomy makes a lot of sense. There’s also precedence, for example Quebec/Canada, Catalonia/Spain, Scotland/UK. Also the voluntary dissolution of Czechoslovakia in the 1990’s. Honestly it’s the only realistic alternative we have given how hopelessly divided we are along tribal and cultural fault lines.


And then once you have that you’ll seek ways to divide yourselves further.
It will never end.

Abraham Lincoln knew this.

This is what our adversaries want.

You sound like someone that hasn’t traveled outside their liberal bubble because you would know for a fact that what you said isn’t true.

It's cute for Magas to think Red states don't rely on federal money to survive.

What is “your” history? Or is a post from north or south of the border?
