50 brand new third-world nations sounds like an outstanding idea.
In all seriousness... Why would independence of an individual state result in 3rd world conditions? West VA would be able to start mining again and selling coal again. That would greatly improve the current state of unemployment. Alaska could clean up the ecological nightmare of federal waste/pollution up north that the feds refuse to take responsibiltiy for. Iowa would still grow corn and be able to sell it to anybody they pleased.
None of the people would vanish. None of the recourses would go away. Just the tyranny of a centralized fiat scam system and endless fruitless foreign entanglements that drain our best young men down a sewer of blood.
Do you seriously believe that our centralized federal tyranny is a source of prosperity and civilization?
