Secession!
"Whenever any form of government is destructive of these ends [life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness]
it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it,
and to institute new government in such form
as to them shall seem most likely to affect their safety and happiness."
Declaration of Independence, 1776
