Here's the thing; all those red areas are so amazingly underpopulated. I mean, damn near desolate. So while all that red may look real good or bad, depending on your outlook, the fact is that this country is still split almost 50/50.
I mean, if you just want to talk geographic size, Alaska is half the size of the continental United States, and red, but has less people than on tiny part of my home town, Chicago.
And secession nowadays is a silly idea. What SHOULD have happened is Lincoln could have told the South that they could seceed as long as they let blacks and Native Americans leave first. Then the U.S. could have developed without the money drain of the South...yeah, thats the ticket. I am being mildly facetious, of course. Mildly.

Lol I know you are being facitious but I'll comment on this.
For people who think that the Metroplii is where all the money is, please be aware that yes a larger concentration of wealth is from there, but the raw resources used to accumulate that wealth, the actual tangibles are from the scarcely populated area. The business owners, and the workers share a mutual relationship when it comes to that. Most jobs inside the city are "Decadence jobs" those that aren't required if lets say, a nuclear strike occurred. So respect your farmers, and rural folks, they are the foundation to our society.
