since the one that got this country started. While these changes would completely alter our political system, and perhaps improve many things, I honestly cannot imagine such changes coming about any time soon. Heck, I'm not sure there are any kind of provisions for a new Constitutional Convention, and it's completely impossible to imagine such sweeping alterations in our form of government under any circumstances. What incentive would regions have to separate? What kind of borders would exist? Would people start thinking more of themselves as belonging to a particular region rather than to the nation as a whole? There would be five new regional governments, and, I suspect, a lot of duplication and waste would ensue.
