I suspect that if the states from Florida to Texas all wanted to secede, a vote on that would be forthcoming nearly immediately.

- vkou 4y agoSo, Texas, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama? If they raised this sort of thing to a vote, I would strongly hope that we let them build their own Republican utopia. They'll never raise this to a vote, though, because the last thing they want is for that wish to be granted. Complaining about the federal government when you've mismanaged your state is easy, actually having to manage it without relying on handouts is not.
