NYC, Detroit, Chicago, liberal big cities and they have the corruption market cornered!!
Face it, our entire country is corrupt. I say the South is corrupt by the church mostly. The rest of the country by greed. Our system of government is nearly identical to the system of government that was used in Ancient Rome, which collapsed shortly after its rise. So maybe we're collapsing like they did? Who knows?

If the United States splits up, it would most likely just be different "unions" or something. That, or the north would become part of Canada or something, the East might remain America, and the south would do whatever it wants. It won't happen, though. Our government is too strong.
I bet you live in the northeast. You gotta get a sense of humor!

Haha, I live in Vermont, but I actually lived in Illinois until I was 20. Illinois's constitution doesn't make much sense, and the education system is overwhelmingly corrupt and very poorly supervised. I know from experience, and the things that happened to my nephew; but I won't go into detail, it's too much of a story.

Anyway, I like Vermont. The people are nice, and the scenery is just stunning.

The prediction from Panarin, a former spokesman for Russia's Federal Space Agency and reportedly an ex-KGB analyst, meshes with the negative view of the U.S. that has been flowing from the Kremlin in recent years, in particular from Vladimir Putin.
Putin, the former president who is now prime minister, has likened the United States to Nazi Germany's Third Reich and blames Washington for the global financial crisis that has pounded the Russian economy.

I don't think 2010 is likely, but we're the main player in the collapse of Western Civilization and its replacement by the Eastern. There are too many variables to project a timeline, but next year seems too soon to me. There are too many things that have yet to happen.

It would be fine with me. I am sick of rednecks and ghettoites anyway. I'd rather move to New England and live among the educated and advanced class.

My father and my in-laws are born and bred Vermonters. However, my wife and I where born and bred Washingtonians unfortunately.

It will split up - only in the minds of a handful of wingnuts. It will become one again once a white guy is elected.
