So You're Seceding from the Union

Join us in the post-economy! It's called that because all you can buy and sell are posts.


We can't imagine why you'd do it, but... some of your states of these United States may be considering a secession from the union. We here in Mississippi have some expertise in this particular subject, and don't want you to make the mistakes of the past. Most important, as the Brexit has shown us, is to have a clever name for your campaign to disjoin whatever organization it is you don't want to be a part of any longer.

Therefore, we present this list.

Note: Parts of this list appeared in an earlier Pearl River Flow, "Brexit, American Style."
