I wish we could divide this country in half. USA#1 and USA#2, and everyone could chose which society that they want to live in. The problem is one side would be such a mess that they'd want to come over and take what we built on the other side. It already happens with our states.

That was tried back in the 1800s, created a small problem from what I recall.

Yeah, but we also tried and succeeded back in the late 1700s. Best 2 out of 3?

We just need a big ocean between the two sides of the US then.

Well California and Florida might end up across the ocean eventually and we might be better off lol

Eh, whether or not an ocean is attached doesn't change whether or not a nation is truly sovereign. For example, the U.S. and Israel. I think a tall border wall with turrets on the top would be enough to establish any sovereignty.

Its already divided in 50 parts. The problem is that we (as a people) have allowed the central defensive organization to have too much say through the use of bribery.
