There is no greater strike then completely removing yourself from this nation. If you voted blue you were 10x the economic power any red state has ever offered.
That’s a good point. I’m out!
Removing yourself from the nation? So your idea is to just remove what blue voters are left? Also do you have sources to back up your claims about economic power? California is a massive powerhouse but many other blue states just aren't. Like Oregon.
Eh, almost every state has some key business headquartered or infrastructure deeply invested in it. Oregon has Intel, Nike, and several others I'm forgetting. The Bonneville power administration also supplies a significant portion of power to Seattle and California. Oregon may not be as significant, but it's critical to California's ability to be such.
