Venture capitalist in bid to split California into six states

Feb 20 (Reuters) – A venture capitalist seeking to break California into six new states has won approval to begin collecting signatures needed to get his plan on the ballot in November, but experts said such a measure likely stands little chance of success.

The proposal, which would also require approval by the U.S. Congress, would split California into six new states called Jefferson, North California, Silicon Valley, Central California, West California and South California.

Under the plan, Los Angeles and Santa Barbara would be part of “West California,” while San Francisco and San Jose would be in “Silicon Valley.”

“California, as it is, is ungovernable,” proponent Tim Draper, founder of the venture capital firm Draper Fisher Jurvetson, said in a statement released by his office on Thursday.

“It is more and more difficult for Sacramento to keep up with the social issues from the various regions of California. With six Californias, people will be closer to their state governments and states can get a refresh,” Draper said.

California Secretary of State Debra Bowen said on Tuesday that the proposal needs the signatures of 807,615 registered voters by July 14 to qualify as a ballot measure in November's elections.

Phi Beta Iota:  Breaking California up actually makes sense. What most do not realize is that Californai is easily two major cultures, south and north, and that if California split up, there are plenty of states considering secession, among them Oregon and Washington (joining with British Columbia, Alaska, and the Yukon and Northwest Territories to create the Republic of the North) as well as Texas, Vermont, and New Hampshire. The USA is being torn apart by its long-standing eleven distinct cultures, its 50 generally dishonest state governments, and its massively dishonest federal government that is totally out of touch with and unrepresentative of the the public interest. The initiative will probably not succeed — but it is the first of many. The civil war has begun. If we fail to restore the rule of law, the sanctity of the Constitution, and the integrity of the Republic, then the USA will dissolve.
