    There are states in Australia that can swallow Texas whole. Long distance driving is unavoidable, so it’s less useful as a metric because it can’t be changed easily. It would mean improving public transport, subsidising domestic flights, etc - and we all know how likely that is.

      I mean, you guys have 6 states covering a landmass roughly 75% the size of the US…

        You’ve heard the term “balkanization”? You’ve just invented “US-ification”.

        More states = more politicians 🤮

          I’m really hopeful people get their heads out of their asses and flip the majorities in the house and senate next year…
