It would be interesting to see the major blue states go on a tax strike.
They could send their tax revenue to escrow instead of to the US government for a while. It would be good for the red states with mostly rural voters to fuck around and find out how much they need the blue states with big cities to support their way of life ... while the results can still be reversed with those escrow funds.
