Default Re: What's the frequency, Colorado?

The 51st state, North Colorado, in the most boring part of the one of the most boring parts of the Great Plains, the most boring part of the United States? Some of the residents of 10 counties, 8 in Colorado and 2 in Nebraska want to break off from their current states of residence and form a new state. Sure they have low taxes now, but I wonder how many of those residents would still want to seceded if they knew their property taxes and other taxes are going to have to go up to pay for all the shit they get from the taxpayers in the front range cities now, you know, like roads and schools and irrigation water and so on? It's like the Red States vs Blue States thing on a smaller scale. I say let 'em secede but give them territorial status only so they don't get any Senators. Wait until they see how much tourism dollars they lose... oh, wait, they don't get much of any now.
