Secession and Actual Democracy

If one takes a moment to observe the present day size of yesterday's worldly empires, noteablely Greece, France, Great Britain & Rome it is evident that in the end, "small was beautiful'.If France today witnessed it's government with a 30% or less approval rating, hence it's people would call a general strike and that government would grind to a halt and be headed for ouster rather quickly. But that is an example of "a government controlled by it's people". Ironically, the USA who's founding principles set out to do even more than that, has crashed and burned, with it's leader now having only a 24% approval and it's Congress at 11%. As for it's people, they have no control of the situation, rather the situation keeps gaining more control over them. American democracy now being dismantled from it's citizenry is left with only one alternative; "secession". For a "regional example", eventually the peoples of the States of let's say, "New York" and the "New England States" for instance, will find that their only hopes of securing their borders, reducing their federal budgets, cutting their property taxes and remedying their immigration, medical and socials ills, will be to secede from the Union of the United States and to form their own neighboring country. It is America's inevitable fate in the end. All it needs is the first shining example and all it's war machinery needs is to be brought under a more sane control by "a flight of funds"! (Try pondering your State for a moment along with some of it's neighbors and consider what type of "new country" you might come up with.) Paul CassonMinnesota, USA
