    Because uncle Sam doesn’t like that.

    Last I saw the surveys, the majority of Taiwanese people didn’t like it either.

    Heck, my experience of talking to pro-independence folks was that the majority of them didn’t want an announcement of independence either. Granted that was like 5 years ago.

      Probably still is. The consequences didn’t change, heck, they may be even more sever than 5 years ago
