CNN: "Silicon Valley investor: Split California into 6 states"

I just said, it would affect minorities more than whites.... What are you talking about?

On a side note, doesnt that make you wonder why minorities would support policies that push the wealth out of the state?

No doesnt make me wonder. Rich people want to keep the money they've hoarded and other groups want to build up their areas without the input of cacs up north. I mean technically you could have a state that is basically run by people that arent white.

Just so i'm clear, Is sitting on your fortune wrong? or immoral in some way?

I was under the impression we could do as they pleased with our money including nothing should we so choose? Is this not the case?

 

[DEAD7]

So liberals want to fukk over reach people, but dont want them to leave and take their money elsewhere...

Sounds like you guys need to find a trade off.

Nothing wrong with it. When those other states with less commerce become broke as fukk they'll be a good source for cheap labor, crime, real estate and prison industries which are all good for private enterprises.

They also produce the most wealth for the country as well so whats your point? Giving subsidies to uneducated folks would most likely lead to a failed end product. Giving them to educated and successful people tends to breed more success.

I agree with you but have you ever read a book called "The Millionaire Fastlane"? You are saying the same exact thing the author does but I agree with you and him. People with less money always on some the rich need to give the less fortunate money stuff. I would like to see more regular people practice what they preach and do like you say and give their money away to help others like they always preaching

People up north dont want to pay money to send mexicans back to central america either. They want that expense to come from somewhere else since its largely not their problem, in their eyes. Bruhs n the north just want to lay up with their boyfriends n have their futuristic latte machines grinding Indonesian coffee beans while reading the newspaper on disposable holographic media.

When you say up north where do you mean? Because there's tons of mexicans in SF, Oakland, East bay area, Richmond, Vallejo, I can go on and on. I dunno about up in Humboldt or some shyt where it's basically Oregon already.

Any city up north that generates the most money from tourism and commerce. Wherever that is. Imagine when these areas are their own state and new states are made out of areas of California that no one gives a flying fukk about.

Oh yeah big difference between a state with LA and SF and a state with fukkin bakersfield or something.

People not from the state need to ease back... If we break up say hello to republican presidencies every term until it is like 2008X5 and this country is in ruin. That is probably what this greedy b*stard is hoping for. No we aint getting broken up. The golden state will remain so as long as the US exists.

update:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...ght-pursue-petition-split-California-six.html

A multi-millionaire who believes California should be separated into six separate states has been granted permission to collect petition signatures calling for his plan to be put to the vote.

Venture capitalist Tim Draper, 55, says the Golden state is too large to govern efficiently, and that people living there would be better served by a more localised government.

The technology investor has proposed splitting the state into six: San Diego and Orange County would become South California, Los Angeles and Santa Barbara would make up West California, the Sacramento area would be known as North California, and Bakersfield, Fresno and Stockton would make up Central California.

Secretary of State of California Debra Bowen has now allowed him to start collecting the signatures he would need to put his plan to a ballot when Californians vote in November 2016, when the next Presidential election will be held.

He would need to find 807,615 registered voters to back his proposals before July 18 - having been given a deadline of 150 days to submit the signatures to county elections officials. The figure is 10per cent of the total votes cast for governor in the 2010 election.

'If the federal government approves the proposed creation of six new states, all tax collections and spending by the existing State of California would end, with its assets and liabilities divided among the new states,' Ms Bowen said in a statement on her official website.

'Decisions by appointed commissioners and elected leaders would determine how taxes, public spending, and other public policies would change for the new states and their local governments.'

If California did vote for the change, it would then be up to the US Congress to authorise the new states' inclusion into the union.

I can already see the states
