Billionaire in push to carve up California into six states
so, will the US flag go from bearing 50 stars to 55 stars? things looking unrealistic doesn't seem to stop people from promoting their ideas... and if one or the other works, they can consult for the other initiative...
and if it works, we can arrange a new twinning - Twin Cities between Bet Shemesh and Califrnia. Or maybe we should call it septupliting.

ReplyDeleteHaving lived the first 27 years of my life in California, I will tell that I recall a "two-state" solution, and a "three-state solution." The main issue I recall was water. Southern California had to start sharing the Colorado River water more fairly with neighboring Arizona. No problem. We'll just have it channeled in from Northern California.

1) No one wanted to give up that much power.
2) It would never receive Congressional approval.
6 States? Yeah, right. As if...
