3.8% of Taiwanese want to declare independence, yet numbers of people in US who want their state to secede are in double digits in most states. Therefore, China should help them achieve that. Right?

I imagine a lot of US mythology feeds into this actually. People are brought up thinking that US is built on rugged individualism, and to mistrust any sort of a central government. So, it’s only natural that they will increasingly blame the federal government for their problems as they start falling on increasingly hard times.
