"Divorce is hard, but it’s easier than cutting the brake lines on your wife’s car." Heh! Well, I don't think we are to that point yet. But, he does provide a map as a starter point.
The People's Republic of Soyland (PRC - North) and the Federalist States of America (FSA - South). I suppose those names are a starting place too. And, we're not talking armed conflict, just trying to reason how this thing might work out. Go read the whole thing.
Well, both countries receive about the same amount of coastline (I guess Alaska and Hawaii are the northern half ?), but the lower receives no Pacific Ocean shipping at all. Plus that southern half has to stop illegal immigration all on its own, unless they are completely funnelled to California (which is going to likely happen anyway, those Sanctuary City fanatics ...)
ReplyDeleteHow are Idaho, Montana, and the Dakotas part of Soyland? (Also Kentucky and West Virginia, and probably Indiana)
ReplyDeleteAnd if you really wanted to do it right, Soyland would only have the part of Nevada around Vegas, and the FSA would have big chunks of inland California, plus Washington and Oregon east of the Cascades.
Dave that was my question, too. Along with Florida and parts of Louisiana.
ReplyDeleteI see what he is trying to do - but it wouldn't work; too many people in the aforementioned states want to end the crap they have to put up with; his PRC would be much, much smaller.
ReplyDeleteAesop over at https://raconteurreport.blogspot.com had an excellent rebuttal to this whole idea.
ReplyDeleteI think it's a load of hogwash myself. And the idjit left Alaska off the map!
NY needs to be split. NYC and the capital region go for Soyland, almost all of the rest of hte state would happily go with the south.
