Time is taking care of the boomers and silent generation… Future voters are more liberal..
Increasingly active younger voters liberalize US electorate
President Biden, the oldest man ever elected to the White House, won on the strength of an emerging cohort of younger voters who are increasingly finding their political voice — and growing their i…thehill.com
In a word...NO!
United we stand, divided we fall.
Humans and utopia are mutually exclusive of one another.
Yeah, the country is too purple.
If it were feasible to divide the country in two and let Republicans go their way and Democrats go their way, would you support it?
One country would lead the way in Conservative Principles and the other country would lead the way in Liberal/Progressive Values.
If this were to happen, would each country STILL devolve into two political parties (liberal vs progressive for example)(libertarian vs. conservative for example) that still fight each other? Or, do you think each side would finally reach the utopian vision they value?

Where are liberals going to get all the tax dollars to give away?If it were feasible to divide the country in two and let Republicans go their way and Democrats go their way, would you support it?

There is another way: Transfer the bulk of power back to the states and reduce the power of the federal government over the daily lives of the people as much as possible. Isn't that how the government was originally designed? You can even decentralize further and transfer power down to the county level for most local stuff. Let citizens decide whether to live in blue counties or red counties.
Its somewhat like that already.
You can see this wonderful Conservative Right-to-Work Utopia right now.
Just take a drive through the Bible Belt.

Silly idea. Never happen.
Those trumpers just need to crawl back under the rock they crawled out of.
Trump created a monster when he legitimized racism. Got him to the white house though. What does that say about America?
no because everyday people aren't really that far off and differentIf it were feasible to divide the country in two and let Republicans go their way and Democrats go their way, would you support it?
again since everyday conservatives and democrates arent that different that's not what the other country would be, one country would be country of nutters left and rightOne country would lead the way in Conservative Principles and the other country would lead the way in Liberal/Progressive Values.
yes the nutters and it would fail because like the nutters already prove they don't care about the country or rights or democracy just their feelingsIf this were to happen, would each country STILL devolve into two political parties (liberal vs progressive for example)(libertarian vs. conservative for example) that still fight each other?

Good luck with that stupid idea. If I were you I'd check on your assumption about Europe. It doesn't amount to much of the revenue. Plus it's an outright lie to the rest of the citizens, who really pay most of the taxes.The same place Europe gets its tax money to give to its citizens.
By actually taxing the rich and companies.

With respect:
Do you have the link to this? I strongly suspect that it's very misleading, in several ways (the worship of GDP being the first).
I'm thinking that this just shows that the "blue states support red states" line is based on 90-plus percent of the wealth is concentrated in tiny geographical pockets. And that it's very similar to the 99% and 1% split; that it illustrates wealth inequality, which isn't a good thing.
It looks like a lot of the orange locations are ports.
