given these regional coronavirus pacts, it& #39;s probably bad that I think the balkanization of the US is both inevitable and probably A Good Thing, right?

all the nukes are in like new mexico and north dakota and stuff though, that seems like a potential issue

I think a de facto balkanization is more likely than a de jure one over the next few decades, with each state banding together with other nearby ones to provide social services or regulations that aren& #39;t applied nationally, and that& #39;ll just have a magnifying effect over time
