*Texit*

Austin actually, but yea. I drove through Permian Basin once. Scary.

Those railroad men just drink your blood like wine. Not a quote, just a Dylan ref.

Texas would die if it seceded.. And US government contracts, gone. All US Government facilities in Texaas, gone. Alll federal funds gone. No funding for schools and law enforcement. Millions will leave.. Texas State Universities, doomed. Professional sports teams, gone because they could no longer be part of U.S. pro sports teams. Events cancelled. Interstate trade, gone. Texas will lose billions.

Texas would thrive. We don't need the corrupt federal govt.

 

[LordBrownTrout]

They'll be taking 38 electoral votes with them. Leaving the USA with nothing but democrat presidents for the next 100 years.

Does it really matter? The last four presidents have run up the debt 30 trillion with never ending wars and spending. Both r and d.

What would your currency be?

 

[LordBrownTrout]

What would your currency be?

Ammo?

 

[Zincwarrior]

Ammo?

Ammo is made in the US, not here.

As long as my SS and healthcare get covered by the state, I'm down.

 

[Zincwarrior]

Will there be a post office?
Stock exchange? Debt markets?
Unemployment insurance? All major companies will be moving their headquarters and major operations.

Nope!

Sorry bout that,

1. Its time we packed it in.
2. Take our state away from the other 49.
3. Back away from this experiment, of being United with a bunch of losers.
4. We can make it without these hanger ones.

Goodbye and good riddance.
Move the border to the Texas border.
Close off all highways
move all military bases, LE office and other government office out of the state.
Cancel SS, medicare, and all other benefits to people in Texas.
Boycott all Texas oil and natural gas. Buy from Mexico.
Passports and visas required for entering the States
disconnect Texas from the grid...

As noted, will Texas be setting up its SS and Medicare? All the SS employees banked is now... just... gone.

Texas sales will now be subject to nonMFN status tariffs.

TX should lead a delegation of electoral districts, the majority of which dominate 75% of the US land mass and expel the representatives of bed wetter districts. Declare the democrook criminal syndicate a terrorist organization (it is) and demand bed wetter districts either return sane, rational adults to the house and senate, or just send horses. Those regions that refuse to remain in the union can secede and join with canada or create a unicorn utopia where abortion is mandatory for all I care.

The bottom line is that we can no longer wait until the bed wetters have done to the entire nation, what they have done to every major city in the country.

Dirt don't vote
It also doesn't carry guns

Careful. Texas is the refining and chemical capital of the world.

 

[Zincwarrior]

Yes, if a legislature tried to vote on secession they would be in jail before the gavel struck.

You don't think Fort Cavazos is driving distance of Austin for shits and guggles do you?

 

[Dadoalex]

Careful. Texas is the refining and chemical capital of the world.

And?
You think LA or FL couldn't do it?

 

[Zincwarrior]

And?
You think LA or FL couldn't do it?

No, not for 15 years, even if the enviroNIMBYs were all muffled. After that all bets are off though. Thats about the time it would take. Of course all the pipelines would have to be rerouted, hence why guys with guns and bombs would insure this does not occur.

Inversely, what is Texas' competitive advantage? The only advantage now is low taxes. That goes byebye.

Also the population continues to shift blue here. . .

Play Hardball, Not Wiffleball

First, Red State oil companies should embargo Blue States. China alone can buy all the petroleum products that are now being sold to the Blue State colony of the United Nations.

The trains are now cut off. Pipelines are now potentially cut off.
