well if you partition the US based on your poll the Conservative states especially in the South would become 3rd. world nations overnight.
You mean kind of like the mess on Long Island and the Jersey coast right about now?
We might be rednecks but we do have enough common sense to stock three or four days food.

The economic powerhouses in the US are mostly based in liberal cities and states despite their regulations and taxes. There is a reason Amazon or Apple or Microsoft aren't based in Mississippi or Alabama.

You're forgetting that wonderfully liberal california that's even now becoming that third world nation you mentioned with high unemployment crime and graft while american citizens flee it and mexicans occupy it. Behold good ol' los angeles.
Should the US break up into 3 or 4 smaller countries?
Yes, or maybe five or six.
It's impossible to effectively govern 320 million people.
It's possible if it's a single culture, china comes to mind. The us on the other hand has no single language, culture or even functional borders. I see a big split comming no matter what we want.
I take seriously the words I said in the Pledge of Allegiance as a kid,and that I now lead each month with our cub scout den:
"I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."
Thousands of people have died serving our country, and I find it treasonous to talk about breaking it up. The bigger issue is the epidemic of intolerance that has swept our country, so that people think theirs is the only acceptable way to think. That goes against the core values of the UNITED States. We will never all think alike. Suck it up and lay off the partisan swill. That trash is unpatriotic.

Good for you. Personally, I don't owe any particular loyalty to washington these days. A bustup is inevitable. It's just a question of when and how violent.

I'm one of the morons who took seriously "liberty and justice for all." Talk about stupid.

With sincere respect, that's why liberty and justice can't exist: we live a lie. If a person died serving our country, then they were anti-capitalists because they were giving value without receiving it. Capitalists would have died serving themselves.
It's a tragedy that so many children are tricked into this cult of sacrifice.
