A 'soft' separation is in our best interest. The Constitution allows one state to enter into a compact with another. Multiple states may also enter into compacts. We see this with the DMV where 47 states have enteted into a data exchange.

Another example is the Atlantic Salmon Compact that permits New England states to manage fish stocks in the Connecticut River Basin. They do this collectively, among the states.
With a failed federal congress, corrupted SCOTUS and dangerous subverses operating within the executive this may be Constitution loving states best option. And it is well within their power.
We could, among our states, sign on to Agriculture, immigration, tech, commerce, and/or education compacts among many, many others that would allow us to regulate ourselves as a seperate entity without needing the federal govt or the malignant states approval or signatures.
We create and establish new partnerships for varying policy areas which hardens the alliances, thus creating strength. Thus begins the 'soft' seperation. Red states combined provide their voters with what theyve actually voted for. No need for New York pork spending.
Among our states we could eliminate income tax as a policy, right to carry open or concealed, no lockdowns, etc. We would basically realign ourselves and by forming these compacts return power from a small cluster in D.C. to ourselves and our states.
Well what if this just forms new bureaucracy? Rotate compact seats of govt every few years, not allowing any 1 area to become an entrenched nightmare of unelected govt types and lobbyists. South Carolina for 2 years, Kansas for another 2, etc.
There would be a lot to take in to consideration, but reclaiming policy power at the state level is vital in any future, regardless of President. Trump wint be around forever and we dont need a Constitutional convention or Congress to do so many of the things we already agree on.
The left is already doing similar things to recall power to the states. We arent. Cali sent Jerry Brown to meet Chinese president Xi Jinping after Paris Accord withdraw. Massachusetts and Maryland refused to deploy National Guard troops to support Trump’s border policies.
Some left states have attempted to enforce their own citizenship policies, with a dozen permitting undocumented immigrants to acquire driver’s licenses and nearly twice as many to allow them to qualify for in-state tuition.
Seven states, along with many municipal governments, have adopted “sanctuary” policies of official noncooperation with federal immigration enforcement. We wont be "losing" anything. We'll be SAVING our states. Otherwise in 20 years TX votes like Cali, N.C. like New York.
Those on the right and who love the Constitution need to stop being afraid to act. Get the RINOs out, get Constitutionalists in, and lets give our posterity something we've saved. We wont have to say "the founders would have". We can say "We did".

More from Government

Abbott is pushing a lie to protect incompetence. There is no Federal oversight of the Texas Grid, ergo fewer regulations (sound familiar) - so point one: state legislature needs reform. 2/


2. Point 2: there were clear signs the grid would get overloaded under extreme cold conditions. Why? Due to a vacuum of regulations mandating winterization of turbines and power generators. This from sources, in Texas!

3. Point 3: Of the power shortfall that hit Texas, over 80% was due to problems at coal and gas fired plants. Power generators were just not winterized. Decisions to do so have been ignored since the 1990s.

4. Point 4: these are winterized wind turbines in Denmark. The ocean is frozen. The turbines are generating.


5. #Texas| the main issue is: catastrophic governance at the State level (no Federal oversight of the Texas grid) failing to allocate funding to winterise the Natural Gas, Coal and Wind Turbine elements that contribute to the grid. (~ 80/20

https://t.co/TgNblNSCBj – here is why the same applies to Product Management, too.


There is no better way of learning the craft of product, or proving your potential to employers, than just doing it.

You do not need anybody's permission. We don't have diplomas, nor doctorates. We can barely agree on a single standard of what a Product Manager is supposed to do.

But – there is at least one blindingly obvious industry consensus – a Product Manager makes Products.

And they don't need to be kept at the exact right temperature, given endless resource, or carefully protected in order to do this.

They find their own way.
शमशान में जब महर्षि दधीचि के मांसपिंड का दाह संस्कार हो रहा था तो उनकी पत्नी अपने पति का वियोग सहन नहीं कर पायी और पास में ही स्थित विशाल पीपल वृक्ष के कोटर में अपने तीन वर्ष के बालक को रख के स्वयं चिता पे बैठ कर सती हो गयी ।इस प्रकार ऋषी दधीचि और उनकी पत्नी की मुक्ति हो गयी।


परन्तु पीपल के कोटर में रखा बालक भूख प्यास से तड़पने लगा। जब कुछ नहीं मिला तो वो कोटर में पड़े पीपल के गोदों (फल) को खाकर बड़ा होने लगा। कालान्तर में पीपल के फलों और पत्तों को खाकर बालक का जीवन किसी प्रकार सुरक्षित रहा।

एक दिन देवर्षि नारद वहां से गुजर रहे थे ।नारद ने पीपल के कोटर में बालक को देख कर उसका परिचय मांगा -
नारद बोले - बालक तुम कौन हो?
बालक - यही तो मैं भी जानना चहता हूँ ।
नारद - तुम्हारे जनक कौन हैं?
बालक - यही तो मैं भी जानना चाहता हूँ ।

तब नारद ने आँखें बन्द कर ध्यान लगाया ।


तत्पश्चात आश्चर्यचकित हो कर बालक को बताया कि 'हे बालक! तुम महान दानी महर्षि दधीचि के पुत्र हो । तुम्हारे पिता की अस्थियों का वज्रास्त्र बनाकर ही देवताओं ने असुरों पर विजय पायी थी।तुम्हारे पिता की मृत्यु मात्र 31 वर्ष की वय में ही हो गयी थी'।

बालक - मेरे पिता की अकाल मृत्यु का क्या कारण था?
नारद - तुम्हारे पिता पर शनिदेव की महादशा थी।
बालक - मेरे उपर आयी विपत्ति का कारण क्या था?
नारद - शनिदेव की महादशा।
इतना बताकर देवर्षि नारद ने पीपल के पत्तों और गोदों को खाकर बड़े हुए उस बालक का नाम पिप्पलाद रखा और उसे दीक्षित किया।
