To begin with, it won\u2019t be the entire state that would actually secede if it ever reached that point. Large sections won\u2019t go. I\u2019m given to understand that northern California would choose to remain in the union, as well as inland farming sections and probably the areas with military bases. (Think San Diego) This basically leaves Los Angeles County, San Francisco and the coastal belt with some inland sections such as Silicon Valley and Sacramento.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/seen-coming.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-22259\" src=\"http:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/seen-coming-242x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"242\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/seen-coming-242x300.jpg 242w, https:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/seen-coming.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 242px) 100vw, 242px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Now if these areas left, and the others remained, how long would the new \u201cNation\u201d survive? Granted the land area would be significant, but there are a few issues. Right off the bat, water. Currently, the drought out there was just broken by a series of massive storms. However, being that the state is run by idiots, fools, moonbats and Democrats, a lot of that water is already on it\u2019s way to the ocean instead of storage facilities.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Epic_Facepalm_by_RJTH.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-15907\" src=\"http:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Epic_Facepalm_by_RJTH-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Epic_Facepalm_by_RJTH-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Epic_Facepalm_by_RJTH-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Epic_Facepalm_by_RJTH.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Areas such as L.A. County do not have enough water to sustain them. If \u201cCalexit\u201d were to occur, the new nation would lose access to all sorts of rivers and aquifers. Then there is the issue of electricity. California is not an energy exporting state. It doesn\u2019t have enough power plants to energize the state and no amount of windmills and solar panels will make up the difference. The only thing that could is nuclear, and the moonbats are against that.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/3804_picture_of_a_beatnik_or_hippie_with_bongo_drums.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5026\" src=\"http:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/3804_picture_of_a_beatnik_or_hippie_with_bongo_drums.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"96\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>So, if California did break away, a significant section would break right back to the United States and instead of losing one state, we would probably get 2-3 more. Now since it is the coastal areas in the new nation of \u201cThe People\u2019s Democratic Republic of Freedonia\u201d, and that is where the wealthiest residents live, then the new nation will have lots of money to play with.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Evil-Grin.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-21766\" src=\"http:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Evil-Grin-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Evil-Grin-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Evil-Grin-500x282.jpg 500w, https:\/\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Evil-Grin.jpg 625w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This is true, right up until the 1 percenters get tired of having all their money and property stolen from them by the new rulers.
