Some of you would probably call me a communist if we started talking politics, so there are certain elements of some parts of the country I don't love, but every part of the country adds something, it is a pretty cool place the way it is. As long as the US is whole it is large enough and populous enough to control it's own destiny. We don't go the way of the Roman empire until we start breaking it up.

If you get off the interstate Nebraska is beautiful. Do a google image search for Nebraska sandhills, you will see what I mean.
Uh, Atlanta has the 4th largest concentration of fortune 500 HQs in the country ... as well as that "world's busiest airport" thing. More than 1.5 million people moved to ATL in tha past decade. It's also the busiest film and TV production center outside LA and NYC. The South isn't so bad off as you'd like it to be, UKUKUK. But since it's not going anywhere, and the Union is destined to remain whole, this conversation is pointless and moot. Sorry you are stuck in Kentucky. That must REALLY suck!

Last time I checked 4th place wasn't 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and a majority of the other top spots.
Proud to produce TV and movie? In the current state the art of film is in, that would be an insult.

But yeah, Kentucky blows pretty hard.
What exactly do you gain with this pure hatred? You are yet another in a long line of delusional posters that refuse to give credit where credit is due.
^^^ Give the kid a break, John. He lives in KENTUCKY for crying out loud. Taking care of his aging parents, no less. No wonder he's so bitter! Bless his heart.

Acutally, this statement is not even close to being true. I did a 50 miles radius of each major city and here are the results.
1. NY - 78
2. SF - 30
3. Chicago - 28
4. LA - 25
5. Houston - 24
6. Dallas - 24
7. Minneapolis - 22
8. Philadelphia - 19
9. DC - 18
10. Boston - 14
11. Detroit - 13 12. Atlanta - 12
What would be the point? It's our unique cities that make the US such a great place to be... if we removed all the cities that didn't look like whitebread Americana (New Orleans, San Francisco, Miami, etc.) we'd be left with one of the dullest countries in the history of dull.
So you think that white people are dull? It's comments such as yours that are often given a pass, when they are nothing but bigotry.

Yeah, breaking up the US would one of the most pointless things EVER. There is nothing positive, no net gain at all, from breaking up the US.

I was thinking the same thing. But I then thought he was referring literally to White-bread, as in white-bread is alot more dull than other types of bread.
