H.I.F.

Pat Robertson's Christian Broadcasting Network ran [this piece](http://www.cbn.com/cbnnews/us/2014/March/The-New-USA-Secession-Movement-Gains-Steam/?ref=thedailyeudemon.com) today, claiming that secession movements are picking up steam. Drudge linked to it. [Now *The Daily Bell* is talking about it](http://www.thedailybell.com/news-analysis/35082/Secession--Logical-Outgrowth-of-a-Modern-Reformation/?ref=thedailyeudemon.com).

Could secession movements actually succeed? Bill Kauffman did a nice job discussing the different movements and their legitimacy in *Bye Bye, Miss American Empire: Neighborhood Patriots, Backcountry Rebels, and their Underdog Crusades to Redraw America's Political Map*. If this (quixotic?) idea has you intrigued, I highly recommend it.

If you're a fan of the principle of subsidiarity, I would think the movement would interest you and you'd be a proponent. I know I am. But then again, I think the Articles of Confederation should've been tweaked, not thrown away. The old United States would've run far closer to subsidiarity lines than the current U.S. of A.
