Considering that California ranked #1 in the U.S. for Gross State Product again in 2007 with about $1.8 trillion and 7th in the U.S. in per capita GSP at $42,376 thereby accounting for over 13% of this nation's wealth, such an occurance would probably bankrupt the whole country. Not that I am saying you are necessarily wrong, but anybody who gives one damn about the U.S. should hope you are. The red states, like Mississippi (ranks 50th) might hate California, but only out of envy.
