"It starts with the northeastern states and far western states splitting off and becoming their own nations - New England, and The republic of California."

Oh, so what you're saying is, we should emulate the balkanized continents of Europe and Africa, and become a series of small weak nations. Hmmm. Doesn't seem to be working too well in Europe and Africa. You want our children to grow up in such a place? You break up this country like that it's basically guaranteed they will be doomed to a life of want and despair. IMO it's been the strength of our united states that has allowed the squabbling territories of Europe to continue in their antiquated Continental fashion. Without us you would see major invasions of the Continent by forces of, uh, "others", desirous of the lands and resources for their own peoples. And I ain't talkin' about illegal immigration. I'm talkin' tanks. So you want want to rethink that position.

The day of the thriving small nation has passed. To aspire to such an "accomplishment" is geopolitical folly. Internally, it's tantamount to civil war.
