 They'd be out
 of the state and off on their own, to sink or swim based
 on their own merits.  Why would the state
 care?  If they got uppity and

 causing trouble, send the navy in to crush them like a bug
 and
 the Marines to sweep up the debris and
 take out the trash.

At the very least they could be sent off to an uninhabited system  (that's if they didn't already have one to themselves) & then a Red Zone could be imposed if necessary.
