    eigenrobot Retweeted Slicin' Hammer  ⚠️

    this is actually a cool idea and could work in the US to a certain extent secession at the state level is dumb but at the county level? hell yes. make more states noncontiguous. why should states be defined at the geographic level?https://twitter.com/SlicinHammer/status/1398188626517762054 …

        imagine if you like the United States as a sea of counties, each part of a "state" consisting of a sub-federal government to which counties submit themselves each "state" offers a set of policies and so on and the constituent counties can adopt whichever states they like

        it's unlikely that any state would go to zero counties because of the value of senators. these would represent niche constituencies--perhaps ports, or LDS, or universities most counties would probably adopt one of a few large states with efficient policies

        overall everyone is better off. representation in Congress becomes more effectively divided, with the house representing the masses truly and the Senate protecting the interests of weird niches (precious)

        state governments must compete on policy for most counties and this will force innovation and in government with an evolutionary mechanism

        Well there are various reasons, chiefly that it's easier on administration and border disputes.
