This is Languish.  We take our silliness very seriously.

Seriously, why bother reputing his 'facts'?  He's literally made up every single one in this thread.

What do you mean? It's got the ultimate formula:  Lettow, so the mockery brigade lets loose. And it's about the Southern States seceding at some point in the future, which brings together the fine and ancient Languish topics of the ACW and alt-history.

No, the South is incapable of standing on it's own.  It doesn't have the economic infrastructure to do so, and that which there is depends on the United States.  This isn't the 19th century.  Microstates cannot survive by preaching isolationism and hostility against their neighbours, at least not if they care about maintaining a standard of living higher than that of a subsistance farmer.  Even the North might not be better off, because they've invested serious capital into light manufacturing using cheap southern labour.
In fantasy, the author gets to make his rules as he goes along.  As long as you are allowing Lettow to fantacize that Southers want to be independent, you can let him fantasize that the South has a viable economy and that Southernors are educated and politically skilled.  :cool:
The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.   -G'Kar

Lewis Black agrees, esp. about Southern Education and Clinton taking Arkansas from 50th to 49th during his time as governor.
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

No, but on the other hand there were a least two people who took a monumental dump in the meantime...

My first thought when I saw Clinton got involved in this was that he must have an Asian chick fetish. :)
