Alright, well, keep hoping that they'll stop burning their hand on the stove one day. Seems like a waste of time and energy, but that's up to you.
I would like to hear your proposed solution.
Only two possible solutions I can think of. The first is balkanize. Let each group of like-minded people form their own, autonomous nation states, where they can all do things the way they want without interference from others. The second is the reasonable, rational, educated people take complete control of the federal government and force all the states to adopt the policies that have proven to work best.
I like your ideas. Unfortunately, idk if Balkinization would be an option, especially under this regime and with states like California a being huge part of the nation’s overall budget. This would give some areas huge advantages (west coast) and some areas very little to work with (south). Also, with the political divisions right now, I wonder if the nation states would be able to compromise with regards to trade and immigration/tourism. It would be so nice if we could just break up like that. Sometimes a break up is the healthiest thing you can do for all parties involved…
As for that second part… I’ll keep dreaming of that day…
Just a reminder that the formation of the Balkan states lead to the Balkin war, that killed more than 2 million.
I guess that leaves only one option, then.
