And if we recognize, through democracy, that one collective has the right to secede from a larger collective, then the logical conclusion is that the individual should have that same right.
Crockett, being the statist that you are, I know you don't like the notion of freedom, but god damn that would be great.

You have no clue what real freedom is.. You think changing the people who rule you is freedom. I think doing what I want as long as it doesn't harm someone else is freedom..
The problem with your idea of sucession being freedom is not everyone agreed to go meaning they are forcing people to leave who do not want to leave.
It's not like it was 80 or 90% in favor it was barely over 50%. That means over 40% of the population is being forced into this..
Where is their freedom?
You will never be free of govt and if you are there will be someone there in the anarchy who will want to rule you..
Meanwhile, my idea of freedom, is to do what I want as long as I harm no others.. That's exactly what I do.. I know freedom you will never understand because you are more worried about who your leader is and when you will make your next rent/mortgage payment.. You are owned by the system and think changing your ruler equals freedom.
Your idea of freedom is being ruled by the majority.. I choose to have no ruler over my personal life.. As long as I can live my life how I choose I have freedom you will never understand.
