What are you , some kind of intellectual , to draw logical conclusions ? <| sep |> I want a discussion on why it could or couldn ' t work or what freedoms we CAN get California backas well as all the other statesSecession is the best negotiation path . Constitutional powers are not changeable without 75 % of States support , and so its only if they understand they have something to lose that change needs to be entertained . The day after secession , there can be surrender . The terms of that surrender can be no worse that the current complete and total devotion to the federal system . Secession just isn ' t legally plausible without a civilwar , or is it ? Of course it is . Just because one divorce ended in violence does not mean all divorces have to . The peaceful path involves seperation of assets and liabilities .
