Lots of Federal infrastructure in Texas that the other 49 states contributed to.

Like what? A few military bases and the Johnson Space Administration?

All of it's on Texas land. If the blue states want to be reimbursed for the building costs, we'll likely remind them that we get back less than a dollar for every dollar we pay in federal taxes.

If we go, everything that's stamped "U.S." will be impounded by an act of the Texas legislature.

Enjoy embargo with that line of thought.

“Johnson Space Administration”

A bit of history: Lady Bird Johnson owned the land NASA sits on in Clear Lake. The govn. bought it from Lady Bird. That had to be a few dollars changing hands. I lived in Clear Lake area for over 16 years.

You all will forgive me—but there is something real sad about this thread.

I would hope that we could ALL band together to save the Union.

I don’t know. Something is coming and it’s coming soon.

May God our Father and His Son be with us all.
