A petition started by a few unhappy citizens does not count as a state wanting to secede. The amount of people required for the recent "Peacefully grant the State of ... to withdraw" is far too small to count for the rest of the population of said state, and with a date like "December 9th", is unfair to the rest of the population as people will sign it within a matter of days for that amount of people. If states do secede from the country, this can cause foreign problems and will cause a potential collapse of the economy and create a new depression and era of poverty, while destroying one of the world's most powerful countries to date. As proud members of the union, we urge you to discard of these unfair petitions or reform them to expand the number required for it to be even considered.
