This time last year i would have thought this to be an absurd proposition but in todays America i dont see how we solve the hate for each other so perhaps the country should be split up,we can have 50 separate little countries.
We?

What do you have to solve? Haven't you been living in Canada for the last 40 years or so (and were originally from the UK before moving to Florida as a kid) ?

Awesome. You import as much as you like from China and send your dollars to China.

Texas' Port Of Houston will remain the number one export port with money coming in.

Honestly, I think Canada would LOVE to add the Seattle metro with all we have in economy, educated populace and beauty. And I would love waking and being told we no longer have to listen to the latest Trump scandal on the news. There is absolutely no downside to Western Washington merging with Canada, Canadians come here constantly as our parking lots and highways show every day.

I'm well aware of all this. Grew up in California, lived in Oregon, now live in Washington.

Yes, like other americans, the rural voters in these states run conservative, the urban voters run liberal.

And, as in an increasing number of states, there are more urban voters than rural.

Alas, of the many reasons why the west coast won't secede, the military presence in the Puget Sound is very high on the list. No one here is interested in fighting another Civil War, and the feds would never let us go without a physical fight.

Just as well, I'm not a secessionist fan. I guess I'm perverse, but I just LOVE living here and poking fun at pompous conservatives when they're running the government.
