Dusty Smith Explains The Problems Some States May Have If They Try To Secede. I am all for secession of some states. Most of the red states don't like America they way it is so why shouldn't they get what the want? I would love to see the red states go. The red state for the most part are the parasite states aka the welfare states. They get more federal dollars than they pay in in taxes. The are a drain and if I were the president I would sign an executive order to grant them 100% state sovereignty. I would call it the "You don't like the US and the US doesn't like you so get to hell out" law. I encourage the red stated to leave. My executive order would be to hold state referendums and if the majority wanted to leave then I would declare that state not part of the USA. Good riddance to unAmerican rubbish! New Mexico and Mississippi are the biggest moochers and I'd like to see them gone ASAP. States receiving the most federal funding per tax dollar paid: 1. New Mexico: $2.63 2. West Virginia: $2.57 3. Mississippi: $2.47 4. District of Colombia: $2.41 5. Hawaii: $2.38 Receives massive military spending. 6. Alabama: $2.03 7. Alaska: $1.93 8. Montana: $1.92 9. South Carolina: $1.92 10. Maine: $1.78 Has Republican Governor There an old saying that you red state dwelling freeloaders need to hear. "America Love it or Leave it! Please leave red states!

Not Apostle 13 sorry. What did you think of the video? What do you think of the fact that the red states are the parasite states? I think without the help of the Blue states the red states would turn into 3rd world nations. Why do you think red states are so lazy and stupid? |

I'm using conservative Christian logic and there is a difference between individual people with real needs due to real hardship and disability. When it comes to the red states we are talking about detrimental effects of Republican governance and stupidity, ignorance, hypocrisy and sloth of most of an entire populace. The righties whine about socialism yet they are the biggest recipients of what the thinks socialism is. Laziness and freeloading in the least of the sinful decadent red state problems. The red states lead the country in all 7 deadly sins. |

By that do you mean that he told the truth and you couldn't handle the truth? I find it quite telling that you had no comment on the video or the OP. Why do you fear the truth? Many of the red states want to secede and I would love it if the did. What do you think? |

Excellent. I support the redistribution of wealth from the blue states to the red states. If anything, Progs don't pay enough in taxes and need a tax hike. |

Perhaps if your state elected Republicans it would get more from the federal government? |

Blue state voters are suckers who elect politicians who give their hard earned money to the red states. Perhaps you should reflect on why you support a large centralized government which redistributes money to the more wily red states? |

It's more incredible than that. Texas and Florida both lack income taxes which result in New Yorkers and Californians buying property to establish residence there; this allows some to wiggle out of large confiscatory tax rates even if they have a second house in a blue state. This further redistributes wealth from the blue to the red. |

Sounds to me like you think people who give Christian charity to the stupid and the children of the stupid and lazy are sucker. In your book Jesus would be a sucker. Whoever is kind to the poor lends to the LORD, and he will reward them for what they have done. Proverbs 19:17 Maybe the reason that the blue state are prosperous and industrious in because God likes them better because they sin less? OR... perhaps it is because they have better and smarter leaders aka democrats?

If you believe the lie that New York is prosperous after a trip to Buffalo then we will be forced to conclude that you haven't waited for marijuana legalization to spread beyond Colorado. Of course, if NY got as many dollars back from the federal government as they send, the state would be able to afford to clean up all the toxic waste from the closed factories. As you said, the blue staters are suckers who elect politicians incapable of exctracting their fair share from the Federal Government. Texas doesn't have this problem. That state has crafty politicians who were able to secure federal financing for a direct rail link to the airport terminal to downtown Dallas. This feat eluded the less competent NY delegation. |

Christian "logic" also defines theft as a sin, thereby nullifying the entire social contract and its justification of taxation. I just find it interesting that you pretty much justify the angst of taxpayers in ALL states to have angst towards what you define as societal "parasites" - or in other words those that do not work and ride in the cart. Its a back door methodology to libertarianism, but you are on the right path. |

![]() The true Christians are the blue states. They have more because they earned it and they share with the poor and the sinners. Republicans are social Darwinists like their heroine Ayn Rand who calls charitable people parasites. Republicans love Ayn Rand and her sicko ramblings. ![]() Ayn Rand is their Goddess. ![]() Ayn Rand is the devil's mother.
