+25 One day, the US might go so in debt that cities will get angry of the taxes charged and will declare an independence war on the US. Then, the cities will win, gain power and take over large amounts of land and be a country called the "Independent States of America". But gradually over centuries it will have cities declare independence because of too high taxes (caused by wars). Amirite?

By then, the textbooks on the history of the Americas will be as thick as hell xD

It would have to be "The History of New York City," "The History of Princeton," etc.

Who exactly would they be fighting? Each other? The government? The US is in debt to OTHER countries, do you think a civil war would somehow stop those countries from wanting to collect their money?
