Secessionist movement in America ???? | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 19320175 United States 11/15/2012 12:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 19320175 You really think only 1 million would like to see secession..? There are 300 million plus in this country. Relax, no matter how many people want it, no one is going to do it because they know it's a BAD IDEA. The majority of people actually understand how economics and how state, local and federal governments work and cooperate. There are a lot of idiots in Americans that have absolutely no idea how politics, economics or societies work and support the idea of succession; luckily, there is a large amount that do not support succession because they are more educated. A lot of very educated people find the idea plausible. Our country would never exist if we hadn't seceded from Great Britain. The fact remains that our country is literally bankrupt, if you knew a boat was sinking and had the opportunity to escape wouldn't you take it? You are comparing two COMPLETELY different scenarios in two COMPLETELY different time frames, do you know that? You are fooling yourself if you think you will be better off as an individual state than you will be with the United States. You obviously have no idea how trade, both regionally and internationally work, not to mention the problems that occur with land use, rights, policies and taxes. Please.. don't be one of the many uneducated individuals in this country. Do some research, talk to some professors and read a book or two regarding the topic at hand. You will see just how wrong this whole notion truly is. This is how the civil war started right here. Listen man I don't want to see the union fall apart. But it's happening, not from the threat of secession; but our own government allowing infinite printing of currency, and outsourcing of jobs. This is why your hearing talk of secession. Regardless of secession or not the entire thing is imploding. |

Lincoln was never known as an Abolishionist until the Emancipation Proclimation, he didn't even concieve of the Emancipation Proclamation until the middle of the war, 1862, and didn't sign it until 1863... Support for the war was waivering, and many in the North were just saying let the South go their seperate way, Lincoln was losing critical support, so without any other choice, he locked in the one minority block of support that would carry him through to the end of the conflict, the Northern Abolishionists. Prior to the Emancipation Proclamation the Northerner's in Congress had never had enough votes to even threatened to abolish slavery, they merely wanted to tax it... Mostly the war itself was about trade disputes and the growing power of the central government...

Anonymous Coward User ID: 19320175 United States 11/15/2012 12:12 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Believe me there are far more than a million who would like to see secession. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 19320175 Some are smart enough not to put their information out there though. Those were the most recent numbers .... If you have others what are they? So what's the plan of these 50 some odd million people are they going sit back and mumble under their breath like cowards or stand like real Americans .... Hmmm what do you think? You really think only 1 million would like to see secession..? There are 300 million plus in this country. Yeah but where to ? And how or with what .. Logically speaking they clearly haven't thought this through .... Hey if your American you are free to leave ... Heck travel. See the world for what it is and then since you're American welcome back.... That's the beauty of being an American it's Time we started teaching what it means to be American since these younger generations clearly have no clue! I've been around Europe and Asia. The level of appreciation I have for this place is ineffable. That's why its so important to fight for this. Over the past 20 years I've seen federal government grow uncontrollably and state rights diminish. All this talk of secession is really about capping the fed and returning the power to the people. No one really wants to see another civil war. |

So when again oh that's right not going to happen if it means any of the youth of this country to organize on anything other than a chat site or gaming console ... So back to your Xbox VLR!! |

Quoting: Saddletramp If these people were serious they would be petitioning their state legislators and governors... The President has no say in secession... and what you haven't figured out yet is that every state is now also a CORPORATION owned by the US CORPORATION. Each state is an asset to the Feds. the only entity who can secede are the people who reside within that territory. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 27784691 Let the Blue States be the Enlightened States of America. Dear Red States: We're ticked off at your Neanderthal attitudes and politics and we've decided we're leaving. We in New York intend to form our own country and we're taking the other Blue States with us. In case you aren't aware that includes California, Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois and the rest of the Northeast. We believe this split will be beneficial to the nation and especially to the people of the new country of The Enlightened States of America (E.S.A). To sum up briefly: You get Texas, Oklahoma and all the slave states. We get stem cell research and the best beaches. We get Andrew Cuomo and Elizabeth Warren. You get Bobby Jindal and Todd Akin. We get the Statue of Liberty. You get OpryLand. We get Intel and Microsoft. You get WorldCom. We get Harvard. You get Ole' Miss. We get 85 percent of America's venture capital and entrepreneurs. You get Alabama. We get two-thirds of the tax revenue. You get to make the red states pay their fair share. Since our aggregate divorce rate is 22 percent lower than the Christian Coalition's, we get a bunch of happy families. You get a bunch of single moms. With the Blue States in hand we will have firm control of 80% of the country's fresh water, more than 90% of the pineapple and lettuce, 92% of the nation's fresh fruit, 95% of America's quality wines (you can serve French wines at state dinners) 90% of all cheese, 90 percent of the high tech industry, most of the US low sulphur coal, all living redwoods, sequoias and condors, all the Ivy and Seven Sister schools plus Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Cal Tech and MIT. With the Red States you will have to cope with 88% of all obese Americans and their projected health care costs, 92% of all US mosquitoes, nearly 100% of the tornadoes, 90% of the hurricanes, 99% of all Southern Baptists, virtually 100% of all televangelists, Rush Limbaugh, Bob Jones University, Clemson and the University of Georgia. We get Hollywood and Yosemite, thank you. 38% of those in the Red states believe Jonah was actually swallowed by a whale, 62% believe life is sacred unless we're discussing the death penalty or gun laws, 44% say that evolution is only a theory, 53% that Saddam was involved in 9/11 and 61% of you crazy bastards believe you are people with higher morals then we lefties. We're taking the good weed too. You can have that crap they grow in Mexico.
