The Canada And 51st State Chat

 First, with polling a majority (say near 80-percent) don't want to be part of the US.  Further east you go....less thrilled are people about this idea.  Further west....more thrilled, but never getting past 25-percent support.

The poll?  Done by Newsweak in the past month.

If you laid out less taxes?  I would imagine there would be a shift....but still not getting you to the 50-percent point.

Second, if it ever went this far....it's more than ONE state that you create.  I would imagine a minimum of ten states.  

Population-issue?  There's forty-million in total population.    

Finally, you come to US states accepting this.  I would question how accepting various states would be....like California for example.

I'm not saying this is a bad idea.....but it does provoke an interesting chat.

Going back to 2020 and arsons in fUSA forests -- but they stopped at the border -- would easier access create opportunities for more arsons?
How many ILLxGxLS would keep going north until they reach the Pole, then meander in Russia?
