There's a bit of a push for it, and *in theory* I'd like to think it could happen. But in reality, I tend to doubt it. If it did happen, I'd expect (or hope for) more personal freedoms and much less government oversight, at the very least.
But then I think of stuff like "the grass is always greener" and "be careful what you wish for". And the little voice in my head tells me we would become one of the poorest states in the nation.
I just have a feeling the road to statehood would be incredibly long, convoluted, and difficult.... and the process much more complex than many of its backers may realize.
