Yes, the one aspect of the civil war that I have never agreed with was that a stare can not choose to leave the Union. If a terratory can vote to join the Union, I see no reason why they couldn’t vote to leave it. On that note, I would also support the idea that the other states should have the right to vote out a state they no longer want in the Union.
You assume catastrophe isn’t the goal for those idiots. Remember, the only reason Hitler and the Nazi party rose to power was due to economic collapse from sanctions after WW1. They used that as an opportunity to breed nationalizm and fear.
