It is interesting.

A short book I read a while ago worked on that premise. A militia of whites from the US took over the 20 miles of border between the US and Mexico, and set up their own country.

It had some interesting features that I hadn't considered or heard of - the country provided internet hosting, their own monetary and banking system, etc, and essentially used the freedom from censorship to provide hosting and banking for the rest of the world, which provided all of the govt funding. The entire country became the wall between the US and Mexico, and illegal crossing went to zero immediately.
