They could withhold power for ransom.

The Power is Federal in most cases, not the state's. Grant and Douglas PUD's have local dams, so they could raise their rates. In Oregon at least some of it is owned by utilities; who operate under their own rules. So, power rates on the westside would probably not budge.

The federal government owns most of those dams, the counties own a couple.

Fish on...

That, unfortunately, is why it would be a gigantic disaster...they would do away with all those "liberal restrictions" and just destroy it all, quickly, and then they'd be...

FuckingBrokeIstan

...in short order.

I guess they could then add in western Montana so that they could bleed Missoula and Bozeman dry, too, but soon they'll run out of cities to practice their Socialism on and everyone will be broke.

They don't need to be whining about those damn liberals on the coast...they need to be sending them monthly thank you letters for all of our tax dollars that pay their way so that they can go print Trump signs and get on Twitter to support the Bundys.

Fish on...

Not mad is my guess. Just exhausted whining and protesting the landslide lost killarie took on election day. All that nightly tantrum throwing is exhausting.

Nah, not mad at all...just amused at the rural secessionists that pipe up every four year election cycle about how the "other" side of the state is ruining their lives, when they are, in fact, subsidizing their lives.

I wish they would form a landlocked dirt poor state...but then who would they have to blame their misfortune on?

Fish on...

Just to get it right, county PUDs own 5 mainstem Columbia dams - Priest Rapids, Wanapum, Rock Island, Rocky Reach, and Wells. The PUDs negotiate long-term power contract sales with other utilities like Puget Sound Energy, Seattle City Light, Tacoma Power and others for the best rates they can get. If eastern WA joined Idaho, nothing would change in that regard. Those PUDs produce more power than their individual counties could ever hope to use, so they sell all that they don't use. If they raised their rates during the next contract negotiations, the buyers would just move on to the next best seller. Free market capitalism works like that, even among government owned utilities.

The federal government owns and operates Bonneville, Dalles, John Day, McNary, Chief Joseph, Grand Coulee, Ice Harbor, Lower Monumental, Little Goose, and Lower Granite. BPA markets the power for the feds, partly at market rate, and partly at lower prices to public utilities.

But I think the general idea is great. The like minded conservative rural citizens could join together and pass laws that the SCOTUS has ruled unconstitutional and have a grand old time. Until, as Todd mentioned, they run out of urban money to fund their infrastructure.

It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck.

This secession talk is stupid. So is the urban vs. rural talk.

Just as stupid as the talk about Texas and their dumb asses thinking they should secede.

Nut the fvck up, people.

Dan,

Come on now, Texas should succeed. We don't want it, and Mexico won't take it back.

I still think the U.S. should annex Mexico. Then the border wall would be moot. Just think, more sunny beaches than California, tropical fishing, and duty-free tequila!
