Can we just disolve as a nation already? Start an auction state by state to different countries?

Clearly we cannot manage the simple act of self governance. The experiment is over and we failed.

Honestly I'm here for a CA/OR/WA Western seaboard alliance. Hawaii can go back to being governed by natives but can ally with us.

I'm all for this too. The Western landlocked states would be screwed not having access to the Pacific ports as well.

Nah they can have access.. for a price.

Laughs in Colorado

That's a nice Imperial Valley agricultural industry you got there, it'd be a shame if we just dammed the Colorado at the Utah border.

Unless CA could convince OR/WA to give them more water, the inland states are critical for freshwater here.
