Same. Here in Massachusetts.

The blue states should secede. On our own or in some kind of partnership with Canada (United States of Canadia?). The red states are an anchor around our neck. We need to cut them loose.

Can blue counties in red states join also? Harris County (Houston) in Texas has a larger population than Louisiana. They bring a great deal of petrochemical production.

It would be nice to keep everyone who wants to join and to have access to the Gult of Mexico (see what I did there). Maybe we could redraw some of the state lines.
