I imagine all hell would break loose if the Feds tried to interfere in state tax policy and state matters over what cities and towns can and cannot do. States' rights and all. Agree, it would have to be a negotiations between the three parties. Probably have to start with something smaller. We just...

Outside of KCK/OP/PV/Leawood, I think the other KS/MO suburbs would vote to stay in their respective states. I don't get the vibe that Lee's Summit, Blue Springs, Independence or Olathe would tie themselves to the city-state. I don't know about St. Louis. I wouldn't include OP and Leawood with that...

I would assume there are some who get by without a driver's license, or a state issued photo ID, but I don't know of any. Usually the people who make the comment show us both a driver's license and their voter ID card. We typically only use the voter ID card since a photo ID is not necessary. Even ...

Why St. Louis Should Move to Illinois Would the rest of Missouri let St. Louis go? It would be losing direct claim to the beloved Cardinals, the fabulous St. Louis Art Museum (home of the world’s largest collection of Max Beckmanns), and the state’s only abortion clinic (yes, really).

The Blow dry bar is being opened by the woman who won a $1m settlement from 96.5. Weird world. the porn star deal?
