Would the Federal Government go to war to prevent a state from seceding? Didn't that happen once?

It would need to be a brokered deal... but many items will occur long before the actual vote by the public took place.
I, for one, would not leave my money in bank that MAY lose FDIC when other options exist.
I would not buy a mortgage backed security that MAY be defaulted on.
And if I were a hospital or doctor I would not perform a service on someone that I was sure I would never be paid for.
Federal lands, share of national debt, import/export tariffs... it is a lot more than the simple minds that suggested this can comprehend.
