It is unconstitutional to split an existing state up but that didn't prevent Abraham Lincoln from aiding Western Virginia in it's secession from Virginia to become the state of West Virginia to aid the Federal government of the United States in it's war against states trying to secede from the Union. A bit of hypocrisy there.

YOU ARE WRONG CREAMPUFF.

Acumen do yourself a favor and stop trying to engage in adult conversation, it doesn't, behoove you and you consistently demonstrate yourself incapable of the task. We have it the best we ever had it?! Do you really believe that? If you actually did believe that you wouldn't spend the inordinate ammount of time that you spend on here arguing (and making a fool of yourself) with those of a different political point of view. You constantly yammer on about how evil Donald Trump is, as much as it pains you to admit he was once your President and there is a considerable possibility that he could be again. Are you so naive and/or dishonest that you can't acknowledge the significant divides we have in this country?! We are $28 trillion in debt, that would translate to every American owing $84,850.00! The US dollar has declined in value by 4% in value every year from 1970-2017. Why so much debt and so much inflation? It is because our government can't spend money it doesn't have fast enough! A class of 3rd graders could manage an economy better than any of the s we have in our federal government. We have a federal government that won't even control it's own borders yet sends troops all around the globe nation building and war mongering. A nation that has a wrecked economy and no borders isnt a nation at all.

You are an idot. What do you mean a broken system? Americans have it the best today, they have ever had it. We have problems, it is true but not as many as we had yesterday. You most be young and never had to experience the hard side of life. What is it that you have a problem with?

The only reason secession didn't work before is because it wasn't given a chance to work even though the ones who seceded had every right to secede. The same entity that would not allow it to work before is worse today than it was then but it is also weaker than it was then, a victim of its own corruption and ineptitude. Secession couldn't possibly produce a worse result than the continuation of this broken system.
