Toward An Independent Republic of California
Self-described "centrist" Ben Samuel asks, "Should a vibrant California allow itself to be dragged down by a declining United States?" Among the reasons he lists for an independent California Republic, this one caught my eye:
Except for its relationship to the United States, it would not likely be a target to terrorist interests. Given the mismanagement of the United States, California's interests will not be served, and it ought not to allow itself to be marched off the cliff with the other lemmings.
DC's legal thuggery isn't about to end anytime soon. International mayhem disguised as liberation and anti-terrorism is DC's only export. And since the three leading "mainstream" candidates all promise to keep the military-industrial machinery well-oiled and running, it's obvious this system has blocked up any and all paths toward reform. The ONLY way to escape the hideous costs and consequences of DC's self-serving but ruinous policies is to achieve escape velocity.

They had best get moving before they become part of Mexico.

That's a fine thought, but I have talked to quite a few ex-Californians who have moved to Colorado (and, contrary to what one might believe, they are not all nut-and-fruit eating hippes, the majority of them being decent, white middle-class folks); and they all say the same thing: California is lost. The state was once the envy of the united States is now the laughingstock.
