Secession mania reaches the City of Atlanta
You may have read that so far, some 30,000 people have signed a petition at whitehouse.gov requesting that the federal government grant Georgia the right to secede peacefully from the union and establish itself as an independent country.
A related petition has also been filed, so far drawing more than 850 signatures. It states:
Peacefully grant the City of Atlanta leave to withdraw from the State of Georgia and remain part of the United States
The City of Atlanta continues to suffer deprivations of economic, civil, religious, and political freedoms imposed upon it by Georgians (who are hostile to Atlanta).
In the event that Georgia is successful in its effort to secede from the Union, we the people of Atlanta wish to remain in the United States. We love our country. We are dedicated to it. And we are committed to preserving its rights and liberties in accordance with the original ideas and beliefs of our founding fathers.
We would also like to annex Athens, Georgia, Decatur, Georgia and the parts of Macon, Georgia made famous by the Allman Brothers.

Shades of John C. Calhoun. Let’s also bring back nullification. The easier answer is of course to offer all of these extremists their wish to be separate with their own country in, for example, Idaho, Utah and Wyoming. Plenty of right wingnuts there already who would welcome them. And beautiful country and they would have international border with Canada. Anyone in those states who did not want that could have the choice of voluntarily repatriating to the US. Perhaps we could give them abandoned homes of TeaNuts? But don’t know they would adapt well to tin roofs and outhouses. As to relations with the US, I am not prone to be too kind to them since they have such a manifest hatred of our country. But the nature of relations could be open to negotiations, like with any foreign country.

The business’s domiciled in ATL would leave too as more of the tax burden would have to be shifted to them…as quick as you could say “have a Coke and a smile” they’d be gone because the city could no longer afford any subsidies..
Those succeeding with ATL are screwed. Fred, another suggestion, take a look at public filings of all Fortune 500 companies in the ATL and go to heading “Employees”…there you can find a breakdown of what miniscule amount of employees of these companies are actually domiciled in ATL…you may be surprised what the asshats have and would to if ATL became less attractive…inequality divide too much in city of ATL to survive…sad but true..

Keep your cash???? North Fulton sends more tax dollars to rural/south Georgia than they do to Atlanta/south Fulton. 33% of your gas tax revenue for example is being used to build unnecessary 4 lane highways all over Georgia while you sit in traffic.
It’s funny how Atlanta is the big bad boogeyman while the rest of the state is busy picking your pockets unnoticed. I wonder why.

What the trouble is in the conservative mind they are independent don’t need any help, but in reality they are the very population that needs all the help. The world doesn’t sit still while they wait for the fat boy to catch up, you better be lean and mean or you are not going to make it. You need to be educated in order to keep up too. This very last election Obama ran circles around Romney with new ideas on how to run campaigns, polls, getting to his base, and how to get a message out. He showed how the real world is always a step ahead of this conservative movement in business as well as social standard of living.
Most of the south is hired help for the rest of the country. Atlanta is a distribution center more northern white collars passing through than native white collars. We are begging jobs, paying for the education of our citizens that is obsolete the day they graduate, bringing non union job cheaper labor, second class citizens all because we are too stubborn or worse dumb to understand the world. Look at the state when we were under the blue flag, Olympics, a president from Georgia, progressive south. Now look at the south under the red flag, conservative, backwards, undereducated, impoverish and backing up. If anyone in the country need the federal government it is Georgia.

I’m sure it doesn’t trouble you that the GOP has never raised much of a stink about the Expat Tax.
BTW, the law also provides that renunciants of US Citizenship can be denied entry into the United States at any time, without reason. So renunciation of your citizenship can turn out to be a one-way ticket.

The “tea party” weapons of choice are hatred, fear and rage/mob mentality against the American People. The GOP/tea party lost the Presidential election because the whole world saw their hatred and bigotry on display during the 2008 midterm elections and heard their battle cry (take back my country)as well as saw the majority of poor uneducated, disenfranshised White American’s embrace the “tea party” as a protest vote against the American People for electing the 1st Black American President of the USA. President Obama was elected by a landslide victory in 2012 just like he did in 2008. Know the “tea party” terrorist group(s) want to secede from the USA. Talk about crazy lunatics. Let them secede.

As a Northerner, I’m sick of dealing with you. I beg you to secede, and take the rest of the old Confederacy with you. If you could possibly remember to include Arizona and Oklahoma in your magnificent new union, we would all be so grateful!
Do remember, we want to do all we can to give you the pure white theocracy you want. We’re nice people. We’ll take your minorities and lefties and intellectuals and scientists and gays and artists and Catholics and teachers and Jews and Muslims and foreign students and doctors.

It’s time for a reality check.
God forbid one day the those of you who tout paying taxes by force is stealing, and you want to seccede from the Union, that you find yourselves suddenly out of work or your businesses shuttered, with no health insurance, too sick to work, with a mortagage and a passel of little ones to feed, and suddenly realize you have to apply for unemployment, Medicare, and food stamps to survive until things get better. Or grow old and find your retirements savings plundered by the Madoffs of the world, leaving you to have to rely on Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid with the rest of the hard-working Americans who don’t make enough money to save for retirement.
Social assistance is not a handout, it’s a support system that is suppoed to help those that are not able to care for themselves, to avoid homelessness, and dying from not being able to get access to healthcare. Ask anyone on disability or unemployment if they’d rather be working and contributing, and you will get a resounding YES! Who would want to live on under $200 bucks a week? That’s nowhere near enough to pay rent, utilities, and food. To say someone would WANT to live in that kind of poverty is just nuts.
I should point out that in 1860, the seccession of GA was put to the popular vote and shot down by the majority of voters. It was then put into action by the few in power. We are a republic with a democratic system of government by the popular vote. The popular vote has spoken.

Are you really that stupid? You think the Republicans gerrymandered districts for minority representations? Why would they do that? How does that silly statement reconcile with the fact that MY dictrict was gerrymandered so that I’m not, in Dekalb County, inside the perimeter, represented by TOM PRICE?
As to me being a minority around here? You got that right. I voted for the Libertarians. While you elected the thief Nathan Deal, I voted for John Monds.

Romney proved that pure capitalism is dead in America. His lifestyle was not acceptable to the American people. Are we now Sociocapitalists ?

“WASHINGTON — Sen. Chris Coons (D-Del.) is heeding President Barack Obama’s election night call to “fix” the problems voters faced at the polls this year, by introducing legislation that would reward states for election reform.”
Ohio and Florida needs it the most.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Show me ONE INSTANT OF TIME in this Country that we were EVER “pure capitalists. I know that talk radio and FOX news bandy that term around alot, but your post here show me thta you haven’t a clue as to what it means. So demonstrate your knowledge by point out when the United States of America was EVER a “pure capitalist” nation.
I’ll wait.
