Host Marcus Ruiz Evans dedicates this episode to tackling tough questions and criticisms surrounding CalExit. Responding to points raised in a recent Newsweek article ("California Secession Has No Credibility, But the Anger's Real") and by skeptics at a CalExit meeting, Marcus systematically debunks common arguments against California independence. Topics covered include California patriotism (or lack thereof), polling data showing significant support, the legality of secession under Texas v. White, the involvement of millionaire donor Sir Dr. Xavier Mitchell, comparisons to successful gay marriage and marijuana initiatives, and the potential economic benefits for an independent California. Are the critics misinformed? Listen as Marcus addresses the arguments head-on.
