Here in California, up in the north in an area that shares the border with Oregon, there has been recent renewed whining by advocates of a secession to form a state, “Jefferson.”
These people, like their Red State brethren, pay far less money in taxes than they receive in program benefits to their region. So, yes, I’m willing to let them go – as an independent republic, but not as just another crappy little under-populated state with undue influence in Washington.

@John Peabody:
There is a pretty active secessionist movement in Hawaii, but they want to be their own nation, not just a separate state within the union.
