    Here’s how it would work. Let’s use New York as an example:

    1. State Congress gets pissed, and says the due funds from the Federal Government isn’t coming back
    2. Sign a law forbidding any tax collecting entities in the state from sending funds from retailers or individuals to the federal government
    3. Enact said law and cite every single violation of the constitution and federally enacted laws as a breach of contract for the colonies in reference to the constitution since they all exist with constitutional decree as a stated legal document
    4. In weeks Trump runs out of money. It’ll be quick.

    In that time, they will threaten to arrest the federal representatives for sedition, arrest state lawmakers, and possibly bomb or kill average citizens as retribution to try and get things flowing again.

    They’re treating the government like a Mafia. Same as the British before we became independent. Cut off the flow of money, and they will absolutely do everything in their power to force compliance.

    Same thing happened in the Revolutionary War, in Germany in both WW1 and WW2, as well as the Civil War.

    These assholes do not give two shits about what this country means, or what it stands for. They only want subservience to their ends. Fuck that shit.
