Based on population percentage Texas’ share of the federal debt is about $900 billion.

According to this, the debt foisted off on Texas for the cap-and-trade debacle is going to be even higher.

Texas is NOT liable for what the federal government decides to do if it is outside of its enumerated powers to do so.

Texas is one OF ONLY SEVEN States that are still fiscally solvent, and as the map shows, the primary beneficiaries are the most debited states.

The feds can take their wealth-distribution debt created by their own unconstitutional actions and stick it where the sun don't shine.

And if you leave then you don't have to worry about that, do you? We're talking about the bill that Texas presidents have run up to date.

Yeah it is. LBJ and both Bush's are more responsible for it than any other president. You should be thankful we don't make you take on the whole thing.

And a $900 billion debt load should take care of that.

And as far as I'm concerned Texas can wander off into the sunset and I won't lift a finger to stop you. But don't think that you can just walk away from the mess y'all did more than your share to create in the first place and leave it for the rest of us.

The Constitution is not a suicide pact!

Nor is it a club to beat the rest of us with on your way out the door.
