@CynicalinNY it'll come down to power politics at the time ; c.f. the dissolution of the USSR, and how Russia negotiated for nukes back from breakaways in return for concessions I see the US going differently - much of .mil would back TX, and we'd end up w several nuke states

no; when bigger regions devolve they almost always keep the old borders. Look at UK shedding colonies, USSR breaking up, etc.

I just don't see it happening like this, because our great divides aren't regional (like Civil War), or sub-national (like post-USSR), but urban/rural. How would Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont form a bloc when rural of same is diametrically opposed of their urban areas?

how do we do it now?

The specific thing I'm worried most about is young Americans' lack of savings and retirement funds in 50 years, and the clamoring there will be for the federal government to DO SOMETHING so 80-year-olds aren't starving or forced to work en masse because they're broke.

I've been wanting to write a novel about this for a long time but the complexity stumps me. A scenario something like this is the background for The Big Sheep.

complexity is what I love trying to fit writing in with a job and farming is what I do not love
