The state of Jefferson is a great discussion subject and has a bit of romantic fantasy, but is this practical? I get a felling this subject matter will come to Humboldt in the near future since Siskiyou County has voted for secession from California due to their perception of non representation at the State government level. Don't know how I feel about that.
We will take your lead bullets up here in Jefferson Territory [not shotgun pellet over water however... those are dry land only]

Richard, you know this is a waste of time. The Feds are not going to change the balance of power in the US Senate by creating another state. Stir people up for a real reason. Pick one (hint: it won't be secession, or naming the airport).
ReplyDeleteI know how I feel about it. It's stupid. I'd love to eject Siskiyou County and its denizens from California but it's not practical for a lot of reasons.
ReplyDeleteBeen getting some nasty comments that I will not approve or post. Sorry. If you post with your real identity I might reconsider.

It would be an economic disadvantage to Humboldt County to form political alliance with Siskiyou.
A: No.
ReplyDeletei live just south of you folks and i do support this , the feds have alot of incentive to make it happen do a little research there has been several liberal groups pushing for several new states, 2009 ish.
ReplyDeletethere are many good thinks that could come from the opening up of the free market , no system in history as risen more out of poverty
then the free market system however when you have the governments boot on your neck it makes that impossible,
which is why its time to dumb Sacramento,
