Guy tried to argue the ACA was doable because Chinese people have healthcare when I said the U.S has too many people for healthcare, got really pissed last night when I wrote "Ah yes, the millions in poverty who cannot use said healthcare, etc."
Or, y'know, go back to independant states in a union with a marginal federal government that exists only to enforce the rules the states agree upon, run the Navy, and manage the printing and dispensing of money.
Wait, shit, people already tried that. It was called the Confederacy and the zeitgeist is that they were somehow traitors.
Yeah, as I said. This quasi shit ain't working. Either give the States back their powers, or completely federalize.
Also the U.S has the population and square miles to house several European countries in each state. It *could* balkanize and people would be a lot fucking happier, as right now there isn't jack shit joining us as a people.
I'd almost prefer a spanish civil war approach instead of balkanization
I don't think balkanization would really work well currently because we'd still have the same issues politically in those regions with the major cities leaning hard left until they collapse under the crushing weight of the welfare state
so much of that is federally supported
Well, if each group was their own fucking country, ie: balkans, they'd at least have shit in common and thus no divide. The lefties would be forced to fend for themselves, possibly die out. I'm not advocating for the U.S splitting into new countries. I'm saying if we don't sort our shit out, post civil war it could look like that. I'd much rather see the quasi state system removed and have things reorganized.
that I can't say
I think it's more likely that we'd fall back to the old left or right over all
Urban areas are the areas where 99% of the problems originate.
Decadence, bourgeoisie, degeneracy, imposing ideologies, contempt for rural and working class people, inorganic lifestyles.
Urbanites are largely Rootless and soulless. Change my mind.
If you look at how the US votes the blue areas are VERY concentrated. They also advocate the abolition of the electoral college and want direct democracy. This is why. The few urban areas with dense population would control the fate of the entire country.

That shit pisses me off to see.
It was almost 3 cities that would control the entire country.
Escape from NY when?
It would be NYC, LA, and D.C controlling the entire U.S.
and miami
Not if climate change gets em
please
build the wall around LA, NY, DC
Tbh it would be great if the oceans rose as it would wipe out NYC Miami and D.C
I have a feeling it'll be more like the Dredd dystopia
All lib shit is coastal barring nigcago
I'd be OK with Miami sinking.
That would be horrible for the environment though
All that cocaine....
Atlanta, Miami, Detroit, SAN FRANCISCO (the whole Bay Area really)
Fucked.
bomb the fault line when?
Chicongo
All of Cali west of the fault.
Just throw it all into the Pacific
set off that supervolcano in yosemite
that'll unite the country
Basically just all the major Redguard capitals.
I don’t think the country is homogeneous enough to unite anymore. There may be outliers sure but based black guys in trump hats are just token minorities. We are too polarized. Not saying I have a solution either.
again, might work after a spanish civil war type scenario
after a lot of the agitators die off
