    The US is not nicely divided between North and South like it was in the 1860s. A civil war now would look more like The Troubles + mass shootings, than it would Gettysburg-esque battlefields. Political assassinations would be happening constantly. Mobs torching neighborhoods of their political opponents.

    It would be very difficult to be insulated from that, short of fleeing the US (which I’m sure many rich people would).
