Considering how much agriculture and manufacturing actually come out of California, this would have a substantial impact on the rest of the US. The California gdp is as much as in the top 5 gdp's in the world.

I mean, he would destroy the part of the country that already sucks, like Kansas. California is proving this point, and other states will join in.

We'll keep all the blue states (which are gdp positive), y'all can deal with whatever Russia offers you lol.

Or, you could save money and move to to Illinois.

A part of me wants to but I don’t really know if I could live out there on my own. Specifically Illinois would be amazing cause my boyfriend lives there but I have problems I’m trying to work through that means I need to be near family. I don’t have really any money at all. My life has been a big mess since my dysphoria got so bad but that is a long story. Safe to say yeah if things get really really bad then I’m going to have to end it the sad way. I’m in no condition to survive in a collapsing society or in a prison. Any time I’ve seen someone bound or in cuffs in media recently I get such bad anxiety cause I’m so scared that will be me soon. Why does every show or game have people locked or tied up?

Nah. We're picking up the Ya'll.

Wanna know why? cause "guys" is gendered. Easier to call everyone "ya'll".

Plus. Texas is sending it's best and brightest here, so we get the brain drain the red states suffer.
