America should divide(pro) or develop a method of cutting down on the bipartisanship(con).

it is not viable because people that volunteer in a certain state may not be from that state militarily wise, if a college student in texas signs up in texas but is really from virginia, what would be the state he goes too, what about families between the country being split. You bring up the point that you dont want america to be bombed.. America due to its pride, as well as its expertise in the field of warfare prevent this from happening on a large scale. America has the largest and most well developed defense infrastructure on the planet, a sophisticated defense network exist which detects incoming aircraft, ships and has en extension which detects underwater objects, its defense network extends off its coastline 370km, this is huge amounts larger than any other sovereign nations, the ability for a nation to bomb america rests solely on its ability to defeat this immense network which cant even really be reached because of the United States Navy, the largest airforce in the world is the US airforce, the Second largest is the US navy, between the two the united states is protected by a nigh impenetrable barrier of radar, among other things which cant be gone into due to space, classification and your probable ignorance of how well this country is prepared for defense of its homeland. You also seem to underestimate the ability of one man to rally millions to a cause and start and wage effective war. you keep brining up the fact this nation can split into 4 seperate ones peacefully, this is impossible. Ever dissolution of a superpower has ended with many of its sucessor states in huge conflict with the largest one still pulling some strings. The British Empire: Dissolved after the end of the second world war due to resistance of the indigenous against a very weakened british rule, India has several violent, and non violent issues it dealt with that was only fixed by Gandhi. Nations involved in the commonwealth just prove the empire is a shadow of its former self a better example is the Soviet Union. It was a massive multi ethnic empire that when dissolved, dissolved into massive conflict and still somewhat suffers to this day. The Soviet Empire, even though given reparations and help by Russia after Dissolution still degenerated into huge conflicts which ended in NATO intervention. Russia still maintains a shadow of its former self and actively seeks to reclaim or assert control over much of its former empire. This is the prime example that superpowers do not and can not seperate peacefully, (even though it was caused a by coup, it was projected that hardliners across the USSR would revolt after Gorbachev signed new legislation which drastically changed the nation, which wouldve attempted peaceful reform and it ended in the complete destruction of their regime and the Russian Federation to Emerge.) Judging from the Soviet Union and the old adage that History Repeats itself, it can be brought to light that we will suffer the same fate, you say people will want this drastic separating change to happen that is not the case, due to the fact the United states is mostly half an half and one half of those people are gun toting freedom loving Americans (which doesnt include an equally gun toting and freedom loving military) these people would suppress the unarmed half and seize control or break away violently taking most of the US's military with it due to its mostly conservative background. The United States of America is a nation that is impossible to conquer from a foreign power, it is a nation where the military is mostly composed of men who dont necessarily agree or like Liberals or the Democratic party, what makes you think that these soldiers with their individualism which is somewhat promoted for more effective soldiers, from choosing what they want to do. The military itself has the ability to forge a new country out of the old while maintaining the contiguous United States as a true nation and not a hollows sucessor. You also seem to fail to mention other nations take on this split, In reality the only nations that benefit from the US splitting and being forced to reform are nations we police regularly like much of the middle east, North Korea, and Iran. China and Europe would suffer from a huge economic downturn while Russia would suffer from a economic depression due to europe not buying oil. All around the world is a safer and much better place with the US providing its overseas power to quell a hotspot, That is the only reason a nuclear conflict has not happened in asia recently is because of this. You seem skeptical of the abilities of this country to pull itself out of a fire. Even with our huge debt, and bipartisanship it is still just another phase, in fact every country has bipartisanship in one way or another but it cant be solved in the way you would like it to be solved, Youve divided this country along arbitrary lines not regarding the fact that Some of these more powerful states will want more regardless of whether its fair or not, In reality Texas and its associated nations would get enough of the military to crush most other resistance and bring the US together again in a few short months or at tops 2 short years. The US splitting apart causes nothing but failure for the planet, and you saying that a smaller less well regulated federal government? isnt that just reminiscent of the failed Articles of confederation that was a weak federal government where states were pretty much their own sovereign countries, it didnt work then when politics was a mere afterthought, Now with political parties, and advanced warfare, and global economics, im pretty sure the world would more so fall apart regardless of a peaceful dissolution or not. Because the United States is the worlds greatest consumer, the global economic almost relies on this nation to provide a global foundation for a system which has barely recovered. So ill admit that Bipartisanship is a bad thing, but it has also stopped some terrible legislation from passing which limits your freedoms and liberties, Your division theory is one that can not happen period as ive had professors talk to me about this, a few government workers, and an economist (not just for this debate of course) But America is in itself an all or nothing nation.. you have all of it or nothing and thats the way it comes, Their will always be a party that will want to secure the entire whole of what was the united states after the fact. Even in novels or books where america does split peacefully it ends in disaster because america in a nation so used to its dominance, that without it they become lost and attempt to reclaim their former dominance. You have made this debate complicated and misleading because you divided and assumed that the peacefully dissolution of the Union would remain unopposed (which it wouldnt) Whether it be people or the military which opposed it, it would be a fragile piece of legislation that would never be passed anyways
