17. Hell, let 'em go

Let's see, a teabagger society:

No protection from corporate exploitation

Health care only for those that can afford it
No taxes, so everytime you want to drive on ANY stretch of road you have to pay a fee
No public schools
Fire departments that only come if you pay them
Police that only come if you pay them
No environmental protection
Jail for those who have sex out of wedlock
No abortions
The Ten Commandments posted pretty much everywhere
Guns all over the fucking place
And finally, the red state anti tax loons would actually have to pay their fair share and stop mooching off the blue states.

Sounds a lot like the Articles of Confederation to me, and we all know how well those worked. I give such a state ten years tops. And I think, I'm being VERY generous with that estimate.
