1. They need to cut the farm subsidies.
Red states go bye-bye!

2. No, states are considered sovereign entities. The Federal government can offer relief...
but they CANNOT takeover a state and it's fiscal responsibilities. States cannot declare bankruptcy.

3. No, Obama is a Democrat.
Only Republicans have the power.
