i think i forget to remind you something that "should hawaii and alaska declare independance from the usa. and should texa anounce its independance from usa. should american indian claim their territory back which was rightfully theirs. |
Read it. Comes back to the same list of excuses, but its hopeless to pick through and counter them all over again because you're not going to listen to me even if I do.
If you are going to list something from the United States, you're going to need a better item for comparison. Alaska and Hawaii want to be part of the United States by an overwhelming majority, and have unquestionably been better off as part of the United States than they would have been otherwise. The problem with ANY state in the USA declaring independence is that none of them want to. None would have better than 5% of their population even considering such a thing. Its just not a reasonable comparison.
A better comparison would be Puerto Rico. It's a US Territory, so technically part of our nation, yet it's not fully US controlled either. You also have an even 50/50 split over the question of independence, similar to Taiwan. They are an island off the coast of the United States just as Taiwan is an island off the coast of China.
What happens if Puerto Rico declares their independence? Same as happened to the Philipines and Cuba, the United States backs off and lets it happen, offering help if its asked for. Should they choose statehood, the United States welcomes them. Note: No threat of bloody retribution and vengence for "stealing from the United States", etc.
