That's what I said.
I really don't think they've thought this through. When they leave they can all say bye bye to all federal funding...
Social Security
Medicare
Medicaid
food stamps
etc., etc., etc.....
See ya!

It's basically a wash, though. We wouldn't miss them either.
However, I do not think what they considered is the cost of administration of all these.
Take into account that cost that they would have to absorb, plus the fact they now must have their own national defense, they would have a great deficit.
