Eastern Oregon residents are tired of liberal extremism and its failures that have taken over. These people want to become part of Idaho. A similar movement is underway on a smaller scale in Virginia to become part of West Virginia.

My question is, why would liberals care if parts of the state secede? Would they fight it? Most likely, Liberals would only care about lost the Electoral votes.

Who wants to live in a blue state?

When Blue states or blue cities fail, the last thing they want is part of their tax base leaving. Remember, it’s all about the taxes. Someone needs to do the work.

Those blue areas ARE the tax base. They support the red areas, they always have

Too bad the blue areas aren't rural enough to grow their own food.

Food is an international commodity

Then they can buy it from others.

“New States may be admitted by the Congress into this Union; but no new State shall be formed or erected within the Jurisdiction of any other State; nor any State be formed by the Junction of two or more States, or Parts of States, without the Consent of the Legislatures of the States concerned as well as of the Congress.”

All the more reason to vote Republican. We need Republicans to control all 3 branches of federal government and state legislatures.

You mean like blue Detroit and red Bloomington Hills? Who is supporting West Baltimore, North Philadelphia, and South Chicago?

Eastern Oregon couldn’t exist without the western part of the state paying the bills.

If Don gets re-elected, western Oregon might secede. Maybe coastal California and Washington too. Along with Chicago and much of the ne coast including NYC.

If this were to happen, Don’s re-election would be a Godsend.

The only thing that could be better than coastal areas seceding would be a simultaneous rising of the sea level. Can terrorists swim?

 

[Bush92]

Why don't they just move to Idaho?

Because they don't need to.

They can move there by simply redrawing the boundaries.

Many states are actually two or three sections.

California is actually about 4 states.

Lump San Francisco, LA, and San Diego into the State of California. Then have the " State of Northern California
" and the "State of Southern California" and put San Diego suburbia in it too.

No, just checked the map. California is just 1 state.

Sadly, after Trump
That appears unlikely

No, it's very likely. People like law and order and reject aimless, anarchist violence, which is what Democrats stand for.

We have only had an area break off from another state once in our history. That was West Virginia refusing to join the Confederacy.

Forming Conservative enclaves is just a RW fantasy

They are willing to trade Western Oregon (Portland) in exchange for becoming part of Idaho. It’s the will of the people that live in Eastern Oregon. Geographically, it makes sense. Why fight it? Unless of course all you care about is the fact that Liberal policies are being rejected, people want out, and would have an impact on Oregon’s electoral votes?

RW has never in his life had a valid reply to any thread in here. it's always snark and sarcasm and the grandpa in the backroom going "and another thing" type crap.

Great idea. Now if we can get all blue state trumpers to move to a red state that would be great.

Remember that comment in November on election night when you're crying and screaming at the nighttime sky.

Told em that over and over.
Then Chaz came along and illustrated that point beautifully.
They were begging for food in less than a week.

No surprise. I would imagine there are movements like this in Illinois and Virginia as well, where the shithole demoncrap areas control the entire states.

All we need is a law that says that the amount of federal tax money received by a state can not exceed the amount of tax money contributed by that state.

Then you'd see all the red states trying to unite into the blue states!

Yes. You should push to have Democrats run on that. See how much of US wants to have a stronger centralized government served by the people vs. a limited central government serving all people.

Oh, I wouldn't worry about that. Having to live near the likes of you seems to be all the motivation they need to move as far away from you as possible.

Nah we would get rid of all the nonwhites on welfare in our big cities and then we would have a HUGE surplus!

 

[BertramN]

Conservatives unhappy with Oregon should simply move to a state that suits their political beliefs.

Once there, the lower taxes, inferior education system, the crumbling infrastructure, and the low-wage jobs available, which perfectly match their inferior skill levels, would have them feeling at home in no time.
