I know it does. But the act of stopping the flow of federal dollars to the federal coffers would in itself be seen as an act of rebellion. So if CA decides that it wants to do that, it better be ready to have the ability to back it up.

I view a peacful secession movement beginning with changes in our election system and legislative system to allow for a proportional representative state government, maybe eliminate the idea of a separate executive and place that within the legislature like in a parliamentary system. Then once we have organized ourselves politically we can work towards a separation from the Union. Or we can tell the Federal Gov to get fucked, take their money and shoot our way out. But I think we can agree that might be a bad idea.
