The USA should be divided into two countries. All liberals should live east of the Mississippi river and all conservatives should live west of the Mississippi. They should have their own Capitols, and only pay taxes to their respective countries.
USA-East should keep their present form of government, and central banking system. USA-West should return to the Republic form of government and interest-free banking system. Ban all trade and travel between the two sides. (Hey, the USA did it to Cuba!)
Then we will see who prospers and who fails.

I would prefer that it be 50 separate countries. Our nation's heritage is one of limited government. There was a debate entered into prior to the ratification of the Constitution. Those in favor of the Constitution and of a strong central government were known as Federalists. Those in favor of keeping the Articles of Confederation (which essentially was no more than a treaty between the 13 sovereign nations) were the Anti-Federalists.
The Anti-Federalists complained that the Constitution would lead to tyranny by the federal government. A compromise was the Bill of Rights. The 10th amendment was significant (and was, I think one of the first to go):
"The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people."
I believe that the Anti-Federalists were right. We should be suspicious of political power, and we should fear its concentration. If we admit the existence of politicians, we should keep them close to us so that we may watch over them.
I'm afraid that we will one day regret the empire that the United States has become.

America, otherwise known as the USA, is probably just a collection of independant states, each of which wants to do it their own way. A sort of 'regionalism' if you will. However, for the purposes of 'strength' all 50 states hang together so as to present a solid front to the world outside. A place quite unknown to most Americans and of little concern or interest to them.

All states in the USA cannot be guaranteed an even distribution of the money the government accumulates. In the USA many states such as Arkansas, Iowa and Maine are overshadowed by more popular states such as California and Florida, if they were independant they would be able to make a name for themself.

A- 50 seperate countries would basically be senseless, and the chances of that, ever happening, in life, are pretty slim.
B- I realize lazy typing saves time and everything but seriously... t h i n k .... f i n k. One more letter will make you look 10x smarter.

Exactly what would be the benefit of splitting into 50 little countries? The only thing it would do is make illegal aliens cross more borders.

For the US, does seem to me that you would be better off in two nations. The northeast and some of the more progressive states (blue) could form one country, while the south and most of the midwest (red) could form another. Does not seem to me you are meant to be one nation at this point in time.
