“...So a “free” Texas is gonna have to come up with a huge amount of money if they plan to set up a retroactive Medicare program....”
We have enough oil/gas here to sell to the commies up north and overseas, we can more than cover that kind of expense.
IF Oklahoma and Louisiana join us, we’ll form an energy conglomerate that will rival the Saudis.
Has anyone ever offered up a projected budget for this new country? I read a lot of talk on here about it and would honestly like to see how the economics work.
I see comments about oil wealth but Texas is #25 in per capita income, right in the middle of the US.

Yup, and don’t forget to add in North Dakota Oil should the Lone Star Regional Republic extend from Minot to Houston.
BTW, in the future Lone Star Regional Republic, there would be NO Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare, Hospital Emergency Room payments, Obama Socialized Health Insurance Tax (OSHIT), Aid to dependent Children, Disability payments, Unemployment payments, Food Stamps; Fanny Mae, Freddie Mac, FHA, Government subsidized “research,” Financial aid to Dairy Farmers, other Farm subsidies, School Lunch Programs, etc, etc, etc and any other Marxist “re-distribution of wealth” programs that have caused the current USA to go into the present financial death spiral.
Current Oppressive Regulations by the EPA, OSHA, FDIC, etc. would be replaced by “actual harm done” as determined by an improved “hanging-judge” mentality Court System.
Rational: “If you like to break the Law, then you will like our very large, Texas Desert Tent Prisons.”
To retain any of these Marxist programs would to admit that nothing was learned from the 100 year development of Communism starting in 1912 with Progressive Teddy Roosevelt’s US Department of [Socialist] Education, to the 2012 re-election of Marxist B. Hussein Obama.
Rational: “If you like your current Marxist USA, then you can keep it, period.
If you like financial solvency, then join the 2014 Lone Star Regional Secession, period.”
