Reply #36: Some PA Repukes are opposing this plan because [View All]

it would make PA insignificant. Right now, states like OH, PA, FL, VA, etc, "real" battleground states have a lot of clout, and they get a lot of "attention".

If the Repukes do this, they make PA about as inconsequential as Utah is nationally (apologies to Utah DU'ers).

PA would lose any clout that it has, and would be insignificant. Who is going to waste their time on a state that you're only going to split.

All the rural fucks in what we in Ohio call "Pennsyl-tucky", could kiss any influence the state has goodbye.

Of course, what could also happen is that Eastern PA could just apply for Statehood. Let the rural areas see how much fun it will be without the tax money from the urban areas.

As a matter of fact, since Progressives and Dems control most major urban areas, we should begin introducing local legislation that pulls more of the taxpayers money back to the cities.

If the cities make up 75% of PA population, it should get 75% of the tax money. If they do this, then not a Goddamn cent of the money from Philadelphia should go to "Pennsyl-Tucky".
