A lot of the worst aspects of the US (imperialism, survelience, etc) come from agencies under the executive branch, so, imo, that is the one to neuter and reorganize, if we're just sort of playing with ideas.

So what you're saying is, we need radical states' rights, so that the federal government can't stop Commiefornia from making GBS threads on Failabama anymore :v:

Or just take all the stuff currently delegated to the executive and delegate it to the office of the Speaker.

states' rights would unironically solve the geographic polarization of the country had said polarization being on state lines since a lot of the tensions in the country revolve around control over federal institutions like the presidency and the SCOTUS. The problem with states' rights is that sections of the country would quickly revert back to looking like the pre-civil rights era.

No, not really. Jokes like this really aren’t funny, especially when Florida will actually be underwater soon and millions will be displaced and lose their homes. Don’t poo poo the thread up with this anymore.

A lot of that will be much slower, not rapid sort of displacement you get from storms, though there will be some of that too. Saltwater intrusion and land subsidence will make fresh water more expensive and livable areas fewer, or render many undesirable such that no one will move in to replace people as they leave, and stuff like rising surface water temperatures and increased pollution including agricultural runoff are going to ruin the attraction of some of the state's primary economic drivers. It's more a slow burn sort of thing over a generation or so, aside from the storms.
