If this ever happened, the new state would be even more of a tax haven or credit card zone of interest than Delaware or South Dakota.
It would become a Próspera (libertarian special economic zone in Honduras that their government now trying to remove) within the United States and immediately be set upon by crypto miners and libertarians.
The existing residents would violently revolt against the fact that their rural communities now have real estate speculation, raw sewage in the rivers, and black bears in the streets eating garbage.
Conservatives in Oregon or Washington want to do the same with Idaho, is this the new trend?
Wow, I would love to give Democrats even more cover to do nothing ever. “We were gonna make queers immortal, but there are 170 Republicans in the Senate and we tried our hardest.”
The 170 Republican senators have called a constitutional convention and will pass a range of draconian amendments to the constitution, giving Trump the legislative powers of Henry VIII and making him the immortal Leader - donate $50 to Act Blue to save democracy!
(Henry VIII codified the ability to make legislation by royal proclamation, bypassing parliament and setting the British state up for the execution of Charles I and civil war a hundred years later)
