Just wondering: if California just stopped paying federal taxes would the net effect be the same? That way they haven’t gone through the process of seceding, but at the same time they are refusing to entirely be part of the union.
Also, it was the conservatives who helped weaken unions by making dues optional but forcing the union to represent non-payers anyways. Sounds perfect here. California can just stop paying, but get the protection and benefits of a tax paying state.
Plus, conservatives would absolutely fucking love this if it was Texas threatening not to pay taxes if their money goes to doctors who preform abortions or some other equally absurd shit.
Since we have allowed the Presidency to become a joke why not our whole nation. /S

If California stopped paying taxes, most of the south would be screwed.
