How would GOP states fare after a national divorce

If blue and red states became separate how well would GOP states do compared to democratic states given that GOP states tend to be rural poor and poorly educated compared to blue states.

Well, it would be nice to see the money my state pays in Federal taxes actually be used in the state instead of being sent to support GOP states that can't support themselves and don't even try to.

@ChipmunkErnie Maybe the red states can ship you their blue population of inner city riffraff and we will call it even.

Truth be known, there aren't blue states so much as blue cities. If cities cut federal money for roads, and red states control barge traffic, then the cities starve, so there's another win win deal.

@IronHamster Blue cities are the main economic centers in in red states without them GOP states would become dirt poor.
