Where would the liberals all work if Wall Street/fortune 500 etc companies were all located in conservative states?
Conservatives would definitely get Real Estate, Oil and Gas, Utilities, Manufacturing (what's left of the auto industry) - of course there'd be no workers cause all the union jobs would disappear and so we'd have robots doing the jobs humans used to do (perfect, more profit on the bottom line).
Let's think seriously about this... how would the libs sustain themselves? Communes/Collective farming? Methane gas production? Solar energy farms? What? I think you'd likely go back to having slave compounds (e.g. - communes, collective farming like in the old Soviet Union). No way the Koch Brothers would let any of you near their businesses, ConAgra wouldn't let you near their frankenfarms.
I do not want people in the South to possibly affect people in the Pacific Northwest in terms of politics and what effect on presidential election they have for the United States as a whole and vice versa. Those areas are so different. I want each of these "countries" to be represented by their own regional values and overall ideas.
If the federal government were ratcheted back to the size and scope it was supposed to be and the states were left to govern themselves as intended that wouldn't be a problem. Whoever was in the White House would have a much smaller impact on the states if the feds had less authority and assumed less responsibility.
Would you settle for that, or is it to late and the only solution is a soviet style breakup?

I'm amazed that someone from Los Angeles would ask this question. Do you really think there's no manufacturing, finance, high-tech, etc., in California or other liberal states?

And do you think for a minute that any of those businesses are backed by liberals? I'll bet there's more wineries and pot farms backed by libs than repubs in California - we'll forego the Californian wine and wacky weed for Argentinean or French wine and some fine Mexican smokey smokey.
Oh I forgot about Apple and Microcrock.... Yes that might take a bite out of it. We can just use Linux on our Dell computers instead.
Damn ridiculous. Some of you people sound like a bunch of adolescents with this BS about certain areas of this country. Grow up. This is one great country and one state is no better or worse than another. All this BS about I am better than you is childish banter. Get a life. Maturity is an eye opener.

I guess you've never heard of Apple (which is on track to become the world's first-ever TRILLION-dollar company next year), Facebook, Twitter, Oracle, Cisco, Gap Inc., or Google, which are all headquartered in liberal California. Not to mention Microsoft, Amazon, Starbucks, or Costco, which are all headquartered in liberal Washington.
The liberal West Coast state will be just fine. We'll even let you stay.

Uh... Where have you been? People and businesses have been leaving California en masse for the last decade.
