Whether split or not, folks abrogated their responsibility thru democratic exercise that shows why US adopted representative form of govt in the first place. Democracy might work in Vermont but CA way to big whether split up or not.

I'm a native Californian so i think i'm biased towards not splitting the state in half. I like having Lake Tahoe, Yosemite, Death Valley, San Francisco and San Diego all in my state.

Do you still live in CA? My sense is the northern part of the state is better managed than the southern part but that may be a bias from having lived in the southern CA.

I've lived in Northern and Southern California and the North would love to be their own state. Southern California doesn't care.

Which do you think is in better shape for future survival? Given that N. CA wants to separate, it would seem they are the ones doing better.
