[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Between the riots/national guard/marines being deployed by Trump and Trump threatening to cut if federal funding - what is the end result here? Can California also cut of giving taxes to the federal government? Can they leave the union? Will this be the beginning of an actual split in states? [/quote]

They can leave the union. The talk is Washington, Oregon and California leaving the Union and joining Canada as three provinces. Trump and the Republicans will happy let them go. All republicans hate California and the west coast.[/quote]
Yet, there are millions of Rs in the west coast.

If CA ever moved to Canada, we might actually move back to CA.

the only problem with that map is that parts of PA and VA would likely want in...and what would happen to the college football conferences? Because that matters to a lot of MAGAs.[/quote]

Yes. Virginia wants in. Probably Illinois too. Though it makes the map awkward. [/quote]
Half of VA would not want in.[/quote]

So we can get rid of the worst parts?

Wait a minute, maybe I am warming up to this idea.[/quote]

Exactly. Money equals power. Where is the money in VA? NP[/quote]

I didn't realize how much funds from the economic engine of the state--NOVA--benefit sparsely populated, less productive parts of the state until I had occasion to drive around rural areas of the state and was shocked at the nice, newly paved roads and pristine new public school buildings. And yet those tend to be the parts of the state that vote red. Let them pull themselves up by their own bootstraps before they use NOVA's tax revenues. [/quote]

Schools in Virginia are built through bonds.  At least, in Fairfax County.  I'm guessing it is the same throughout.
There are lots of beautiful schools in FCPS.  And, some that are not very beautiful.  I'm assuming that is the same in the rural areas, as well.
