The
Federal Government's actions, policies, and attitude has created a
laundry list of complaints from our fair state of California. Our
outlook at education, the environment, and the military is a strong
opposite to the Bush/Cheney machine back East in DC. From the looks
of my research below, there might be a way to shake the oil-sodden
Texas beast. Not only am I a student of history, I am also from
South Carolina. Secession has always been a word that I knew, some
would say, intimately. But secession based on racist, or xenophobic,
values is not what I'm suggesting. California, a liberal state with
strong standards for the people and the planet, needs to start
throwing its weight around regarding states rights. It's already
begun (Santa Cruz's middle finger to the DEA), and if we use our
first-world tech and economy for progressive things, and not send
all our tax dollars to fund Bush's oil wars, then the secession of
California would be a prelude to a much better world. |
