Ok so once we divide the line, do we require everyone to move or would the new regulations provide the needed ambition?
East America doesn't allow abortion. You can be pro-choice and still live in East America, but if moving a few hours west would allow you to not only be pro choice but also to have many of the other ideals you hold dear, would that inspire you to leave of your own volition?
Likewise, the many other issues of our time? Wouldn't conservatives be far more happier if they were surrounded only with their type?
I guess it would suck for a moderate, but one would have to assume that even the two sides will have some moderate type regulations.

In truth, this is what I wanted to get at.
Even my liberal leaning is somewhat balanced by my conservative ideals. It would be extremely difficult to be completely and totally liberal.
It is my contention that as annoying as the two sides are, they somehow balance each other out. We just don't seem to do it very well.
EDIT: that being said, I still answered the poll on the premise that one was "forced" to choose.

I think it makes sence to point out that in a way, every nation is devidid.
Germany has a north - south devide with a more liberal and protestant north and more conservative and catholic south + a east - west devide, with the west being economicaly more prosperous.
The south - north devide is a feature present in almoust all of Europe. The more south you go on the continent the more conservative the countries you pass through are. (Conservative Ireland being an exception)
And as far as I know, the Uk also has a north south devide, eastern Poland is more conservative than western Poland, And the east of the Netherlands are more conservative than the west of the country.
But I would need veryfication by Dutch and British members to be certain.

Cin....lol, I've been here at least long enough for you to know me a little, if I was "forced" to choose......you can imagine how that would end for me....lol. I'd be a puddle on a cement floor in conservativeland, nothing more or less.
(crucial, considering I'd be a cog in the wheel of an oppressive overall US - asked to leave my home- I'd rather be a martyr-I guess you've found my line)

Liberal America would be the west coast, the east coast north of Washington DC and the rustbelt. Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, Virginia and Pennsylvania would all get chopped up for it, but it would be doable.

I hate the idea since you grouped the conservative fucks known as the Democrats with the liberals and the other divisions would stick California with some rather shitty states.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.
