A western US, a Rocky Mountain / Midwestern US, and then an Eastern US?

What would be the results of this? Good or bad?

What is arrogant to me is the far east and west coast deciding what the middle of the country does ...

I guess that's my main point for posting this topic.

The heavily populated coastal areas have far too much influence over politics of the rest of the country.




that's kind of how democracy works...

A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?
