Anyone get the impression we'd all better off if we split the U.S. up into like 7-10 different countries and had a Euro-style federation? That way we could keep the dollar and the free trade thing, but, like, Texas, California, Michigan, and North Carolina wouldn't have to live with each other as they all seem to hate doing.

I mean, Maryland has about as much in common with Arizona as England has with Mexico (namely, perennially underachieving football teams, and that's about it). There's no reason decisions about my personal, professional, and economic rights and responsibilities should be made by someone with a completely different electorate, in a different part of the world, with a different history and heritage. And, sure, Russia and China would LOVE to see the end of the American Experiment, but I would argue that they're not much better off, what with having to do autocracy to keep it all together.
Just, y'know, let us try it without someone 6,500 miles away telling us No.
