It appears the liberal-based secession movement is pretty solid, likely even to pass!:
Yes California Independence Campaign
In the Spring of 2019, Californians will go to the polls in a historic vote to decide by referendum if California should exit the Union, a #Calexit vote.
You will have this historic opportunity because the Yes California Independence Campaign will qualify a citizen’s initiative for the 2018 ballot that if passed would call for a special election for Californians to vote for or against the independence of California from the United States.
If both votes pass, then CA may change its name and get their own army and every illegal alien there will become a citizen and illegal aliens in other states will flock there .. so good luck CA on establishing a welfare department to support them all, since you don't have jobs for them.
Back in June of this year, California passed France to become the world's 6th largest economy, beginning now to close in on Great Britain:
California Now World?s Sixth-Largest Economy - 24/7 Wall St..
Wow -- when the U.S. loses California, will we begin to fall behind China and head for second place for like the first time?!
But, hold on just a doggone minute here, folks! It appears that unilateral secession ..
is unconstitutional!:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secession_in_the_United_States
In Texas v. White, the United States Supreme Court ruled unilateral secession unconstitutional, while commenting that revolution or consent of the States could lead to a successful secession.
So, unless something new and overriding has since been ruled by the SCOTUS, not gonna happen. The other states don't want to lose California's federal tax contribution benefits. So, no, there won't be a unanimous/three-fourths/or whatever agreement of the other states to let CA go.
And CA won't fight a bloody battle to secede .. they're
liberals, for God's sake -- they don't do that kind of "unsafe" thing.
Thus what a waste of time and money by a state that's just way, way out of touch with mainstream America.
Sad.
Mexico, however, is really rooting for this doomed to be stillborn effort, as what this really is is their plan to re-annex California for Mexico! :shock:
