What if we Broke Up the United States?

Hello my dear mediums, and I am not talking the people who can see dead people. I hope you are all doing well on this middle of the October in 2020. What a year it has been with everything going on from our President being a different dude to a unknown virus producing global fear that we haven’t seen since maybe yesterday?! Jk. It really has been an interesting time in 2020. And people said 2019 was nuts!

My post today is concerning what would happen if we cut up the United States in to 4 different countries. Now I will admit before writing this article that I have not put a lot of thought into the logistics and all that would have to happen to do this with rules, etc. But this is an idea with macro thoughts on what could happen. We are all idea people if we think about it, and I would say 99.99% of large ideas don’t happen. That does not mean they can’t be thought about though and that is why I think writing is a great tool to put the thoughts down on paper, even if they are meaningless.

My main reason I will admit to why I think this is a good idea is because people always bring up those countries in the Nordic region of Europe. They have the best healthcare, they have they best quality of life, they have the best pay, and I could go on for sentences! And I agree with these sentiments and I think a lot of people no matter their political party agree that these countries figured out something vital to human prosperity. The argument I always hear is they are around 8 million people. Let me tell you something my other Mediums and hopefully readers, that argument is correct. Bigger is better, but bigger is never better, or easier, when it comes to control of anything. Now we put beautiful humans with their beautiful own thoughts in the equation?!?! A large population just isn’t going to work and is it even necessary?

That brings me to my point of the article and what would be the best population for a country with the government and constitution like the United States of America? You know what the population of the United States was when those wig wearing dudes wrote the rules in 1776?!?! It was 2.5 million. Right now the US is around 330 million people and we expect the same rules (with amendments) to doctor us even though they have done a pretty good job?!?! I find it a little bit foolish. I think if we go…
