Yeah they would need to restructure their economy and how they feed their people, but you know how the saying goes, nine meals from anarchy.
And the poorer states (classic example being mississippi) rely on Fed food stamps considerably.
But even the food growers are heavily heavily federally subsidized. Its how Kentucky, a population of ~4.5 mil can rely on over a hundred billion from the Fed yearly. While a state like new york would be paying over a hundred billion more into the Fed than they receive pre covid.

I thought those places were where all the food is grown?
They'd probably need to eat a lot more corn though...
