Is it??? Canada would probably have SOMETHING. A few bombers can take out those nice little A10s lined up in rows on your airfields.

Still using bombers in 2028, your argument is invalid.

Also, F-35 and F-22, your argument is double invalid.

AND, Supercarriers, your argument is triple invalid.

Really??? You can PROTECT bombers. That, and they've actually planned to release bombers (at this point) that would be able to actually blow up missiles with lasers!

Why do none of these RPs ban california... If it were to secede today it'd be the 6th largest global economy and have a military able to project global power...

suppose only saving grace is that its the least likely to want war (shame nobody would listen to that though)

Because Georgia and Oregon would have nuclear arsenals, just from the submarines they'd be taking. And I'm sure Kansas will still have some active Nuclear Silos.

Also, Gyren, my preparation for rebellion is secret, only a select few know of the plans, and only the commitee know of the details of the plan, so there is no way for Brazil to know that we are planning anything.
AH, PMT, some FT.


Your test scores indicate that you are an open-minded ultra-progressive; this is the political profile one might associate with a journalist. It appears that you are skeptical towards religion, and have a generally optimistic attitude towards humanity in general.
Your attitudes towards economics appear neither committedly capitalist nor socialist, and combined with your social attitudes this creates the picture of someone who would generally be described as a liberal.
To round out the picture you appear to be, political preference aside, a considerate idealistic egalitarian with many strong convictions.

They could easilly steal several nukes as well, and most nuclear power plants could in theory be converted to make nukes.

But that is just a nuclear arsenal, literally every state would have at least some (silos everywhere) but no launch keys.

Meanwhile I guess I do have 2/3s US SAC, but still, cali has the economy and the military to dominate every other state (and maybe have a good fight with Viginia and/or Texas)

Heres a good map of all sites used in U.S Nuclear weapons manufacture.

And i'd like to imagine that the launch keys can be spoofed given enough time and good minds.

Most states, with the exception of (obviously) Texas, Florida, California, New York, and possibly Virginia, would immediatly go bankrupt without intervention after seceding as most take more money out from the fed then the put back into it.

If we took out the aforementioned areas, the state would turn a profit.

Basically, anyone in red is going to have major economic troubles after seceding; they recieved far more in federal money then they could put back in, which is going to mean fiddeling with the currency(bad), immediate tax hikes(bad), or loaning(bad) for practically any state in red if they plan on keeping a somewhat-democratic system.
