Secession Week?

Let A Thousand Nations Bloom blog is holding a Secession Week in honor of the 4th of July, when our country seceded from Great Britain.

Here is the introduction to the blog’s Secession Week:

As you might have guessed from the name of this blog, we want to see more nations. There are serious benefits to having more and smaller states: the efficiency coming from jurisdictional competition, the robustness coming from decentralization, and the satisfaction coming from choice are all, frankly, awesome.

But, anyone who talks about secession has surely gone off the deep end and must be a crazy redneck racist.
