America is in crisis, and the differences between people, states and parties are irreconcilable. Many doubt whether their state’s relationship with the Federal Government is a beneficial one. The looming question is not if the United States will break up, but when. This book makes the case that a negotiated split represents the most likely chance for a peaceful outcome. By committing to legislative processes, nonviolence, and a good dose of “live and let live,” cities, states, and individuals can regroup in ways that better suit their preferences. National divorce is the peaceful path for every American to have it their way, right now.
