New maps

There's been a lot of talk about people moving to Canada after the reelection of Bush. This has spurred lots of maps and suggestions that we should just redraw the borders and create the United States of Canada and "Jesusland".

My question is this: supposing that happened, and the borders were redrawn, and the North seceded, would the resulting part of America that Bush then controlled be even a fraction as powerful as is the current America?

Considering that California alone would have something like the ninth biggest GDP if it were its own country, I don't think the United States of Canada would be hurting.

I don't think so, because the only people who bother visiting the rest of the world or engaging in foreign trade with them all live in the United States of Canada.

Also, I wish there were a better way to label that map, because I don't think Jesus would be very happy with the things the people in "Jesusland" believe in.
