3. What does that actually mean?

Do these people -- have they thought about this? What that would mean? That would mean that those states that chose to secede would be their own country. No USA in their state. No military bases, no federal tax income. What would that mean in terms of human trafficking?

They would have a different constitution. Possibly a state religion with different flavors of "Christian" jockeying for power-- an unstable situation.

In fact, the chances of them becoming a failed state and invaded and subjugated after the Civil War would probably be pretty high.
