Secession and the twisting of truths


This well researched piece comes from a colleague's blog and is worth the read...

"Many people today think maintaining the integrity of the union is constitutional; never stopping to think their position is neither congruent nor synonymous.

  1. The only problem with secession is that if there are 2+ countries, China and Russia will annex one and then invade the second. If we secede, we must conquer the other (think Confederacy taking over the Union). We won't stay divided: either we'll unite under our rule, or under socialist rule.
