Dear Red States:

If you manage to steal this election too we've decided we're leaving. We intend to form our own country, and we're taking the other Blue States with us.

In case you aren't aware, that includes California, Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois and all the Northeast.

We believe this split will be beneficial to the nation, and especially to the people of the new country of New California.

To sum up briefly: You get Texas, Oklahoma and all the slave
states.

We get stem cell research and the best beaches.

We get the Statue of Liberty. You get Dollywood.
We get Intel and Microsoft. You get WorldCom.
We get Harvard. You get Ole' Miss.
We get 85% of America's venture capital and entrepreneurs.

You get Alabama.
We get two-thirds of the tax revenue, you get to make the red states pay their fair share.
Since our aggregate divorce rate is 22% lower than the
Christian Coalition's, we get a bunch of happy families. You get a bunch of single moms.
Please be aware that Nuevo California will be pro-choice and anti-war,
and we're going to want all our citizens back from Iraq at once. If you
need people to fight, ask your evangelicals. They have kids they're
apparently willing to send to their deaths for no purpose, and they
don't care if you don't show pictures of their children's caskets coming home. We do wish you success in Iraq , and hope that the WMDs turn up, but we're not willing to spend our resources in Bush's Quagmire.
With the Blue States in hand, we will have firm control of 80% of the
country's fresh water, more than 90% of the pineapple and lettuce, 92% of the nation's fresh fruit, 95% of America's quality wines, 90% of all cheese, 90% of the high tech industry, 95% of the corn and soybeans (thanks Iowa!), most of the U.S. low-sulfur coal, all living redwoods, sequoias and condors, all the Ivy and Seven Sister schools plus Stanford, Cal Tech and MIT.
With the Red States, on the other hand, you will have to cope with 88% of all obese Americans (and their projected health care costs), 92% of all U.S. mosquitoes, nearly 100% of the tornadoes, 90% of the hurricanes, 99% of all Southern Baptists, virtually 100% of all
televangelists, Rush Limbaugh, Bob Jones University, Clemson and the University of Georgia.
We get Hollywood and Yosemite, thank you.
Additionally, 38% of those in the Red states believe Jonah was actually swallowed by a whale, 62% believe life is sacred unless we're discussing the war, the death penalty or gun laws, 44% say that evolution is only a theory, 53% that Saddam was involved in 9/11 and 61% of you crazy bastards believe you are people with higher morals then we lefties.
Finally, we're taking the good pot, too. You can have that dirt weed
they grow in Mexico

oth, the blue states would lose yellowstone, the grand canyon and most of the oil fields

Peace out,
Blue States

That's an interesting concept. What would a secession look like? I'd be totally cool with not having to claim alabama as mi gente.
 
:tantrum:

If all the blue states like Illinois, New York, Jersey, Mass, Maryland, and California split from the red states, you'd be bankrupt in a year with every decent business leaving due to the insane taxation and then you'd have to supress the resulting insurrection from a destitute and hungry populace.

Then us red staters would just sweep in and reclaim the place as heroes. :clink:

LOL in your dreams. places like Massachusetts have a never ending year over year supply of cheap labor graduating from its schools. Its like having your own off shoring in your own backyard.

Why would businesses ever leave because of a 5-10% difference in taxes when they are getting 50% discounts in many of there jobs.

Or if they were going to leave why wait? Taxes are already much higher here.

companies like this area because of proximity of cities are close, worker pool is good, and consumers buy alot.

THe whole idea that business will move out of blue areas east and west coasts is so 80's. It already happened and was the pre-offshoring era. Texas, georgia, and other states already got the boom they will get from that.

no disrespect DQ but this is pretty stupid. You have 'red states' that were blue in 1996 and will be blue in 2008 have blue state legislatures etc. The red and blue can make for funny political humor as this person attempts above but a civil war? Like Jim Carrey said in Dumb and Dumber, "so you're saying there's a chance..." Sure and USC's not going to win the national championship this year.

And imagine how much lower the federal tax rate would be if you didn't have to send places like Alaska and the southern states twice as much as they put in. And companies would want to set up shop there, because they wouldn't have to pay massive rates for private insurance that spends most of its money on lawyers to refuse payments to people and could rely on the cheap and effective universal system like in most other countries.
