A separatist movement has begun within Scotland. Now, the Orkney islands are following Shetland in demanding independence from Scotland itself. This is part of a widening global trend; as the government begins to crumble internally, separatist movements will begin. We will see this also appear in the United States after the elections. Some people want to separate from the USA, taking California, Oregon, and Washington if Trump wins. We should support that if they take Bill Gates with them, and perhaps then we can revoke any passport to allow travel to the USA.

Some people want to separate from the USA, taking California, Oregon, and Washington if Trump wins. We should support that if they take Bill Gates with them, and perhaps then we can revoke any passport to allow travel to the USA.

That would certainly create some very severe dynamics.

Problem #1 with succession: The national debt. Will these states breaking away take a fair portion of the debt with them, or any portion at all? If they do not, or don't take what is deemed a fair share, the dollar will certianly crash. So the fed gov won't permit it on those grounds alone, intervening militarily as happened in the 1860s.

Losing all 3 states would also impact US commerce as those 3 states control direct access to the Pacific ports. All remaining states west of Texas will suddenly be landlocked. Imports and exports to the pacific rim would then have to pass through a foreign country which could impose severe taxes.

If it did succeed, I'd expect a greatly renewed southern patriotic movement to reforge the Confederate States of America.

I'm all for it though. The US is far too big for its own good. The south now has about nothing in common with the liberal west so there's little reason for the two regions to share a common federal gov.

Internationally, China might see the loss of the left coast as an opportunity to take over Taiwan.

All this would make it a popcorn buying time.

Yes, the Pacific seaport access would be a huge issue -- but not insoluble. I watched an interesting documentary recently -- I think it was called Freightened: The Real Price of Shipping -- and it claimed that global shipping operates largely independent of government oversight. Shipping magnates from around the world have big periodic powwows, and government representatives are decidedly uninvited.

One of the main reasons Mr. Lincoln and his cronies made war on the Confederate States of America is that the Northern plutocrats were unwilling to lose the Mississippi River and the port of New Orleans -- and 3000 miles of other coastline.

Great comments and ratiocination, Ping. Alas, the quality of human timber is so pathetic I'm sure the dross would rise to the top in a newly independent left coast, South, Scotland or Orkneys. Those places would still have jewsmedia and sheeples with zero comprehension or even consciousness of jew evils.

'Independent' Scotland has certainly been a disappointment, the 'Scottish National Party' a sick joke.

People simply don't have the character anymore. I really appreciate your positive Southern mentions here, but look how Dixie has churned out much of the worst political filth of our lifetimes -- admittedly with tons of help from jewyankee outfits like the Rottenfellers and Rothschilds.

The Sons of Confederate Veterans are the most rinkydink org out there -- oops, I forget the even more useless United Daughters of the Confederacy. My compatriot Dr. Carter is convinced the SCV has hatched a deal with the SPLC -- don't hit us and we'll just keep hunting relics and polishing gravestones.
