Sure

Not that this has been one of the deeper threads we've ever threaded, but if you accept the premise that the US has become ungovernable and can't recover, then maybe the only solution is an amicable divorce and division of cultures.

I use the South as something of a symbol for the red culture intertwined with the blue throughout America (we all know that red "state" vs blue "state" is a coarse fiction), but you have to admit that conservative Americans everywhere are cultural soulmates to their Southern branch. Wouldn't you be happier living in a place where conservative principles and values are guaranteed to always carry the day in the political process?

And that "150-year-long tantrum"? I think a century and a half of sending people like Jesse Helms to Washington to throw sand in the gears constitutes not just a "tantrum", but perhaps an act of war. We'll be happier separated, I tell you.
