Just as Britain had the right to decide their own future and withdraw from the European Union, so does every State in the USA have the same right to withdraw from the United States of America.

And it is time for some of the States to start seriously threatening to do so. We have a federal behemoth is Washington, DC that is out of control. We have a president who acts like and is treated like an Emperor.

We pay a massive amount of personal income tax to the federal government (who then misuses our money), and a fraction of that to our States. It should be other way around.

And even with that taxation, Congress and the Whitehouse have so badly managed our national finances that we have over 120 Trillion Dollars in Debt and Unfunded Obligations!

 

The federal government actually only has very, very limited power and authority in just a few areas (military defense, national highways, and inter-state commerce and that's about it)!

 

The rest of the well-run States are expected to bail out disastrously run States like California. And that should not be.

 

If enough States begin making preparations for a departure from the USA and refuse to send money to DC, it might get the message across that we will NOT take any more!

 

All Governors need to tell Washington to get out of our local affairs, they should stop accepting federal financing (keep our money in our States), and begin to exercise their sovereign right to determine our own destiny.

Right now we are on track for a huge train wreck! If we don't do something very significant and very quickly our once-great republic is doomed.
