Cut off your source of revenue.

But our energy prices would be much cheaper. Where would the rest of the country get their gas from, since so much is refined on the TX coast?

Texas gets back 94 cents for every dollar is sends to Washington so I'd say your taxes may go down slightly.

I don' think that is right. If we keep the $$$$$$s here to start with, think of all the administrative dollars that would not be left in DC. As far as the libs here, if they don't like it, they will leave on their own. They tend to stay where they can suck up freebies. Cut that off and they will be out of here.

We were a republic once before, and I think we can do it again.

Not sure how Texas gets the blame nonsensical keeps sputtering about. None of the presidents he whines about spent one penny without the approval of Congress.

I imagine we'll just buy it from you. So what?

Some of those will have to fund the administration you'll have to set up to replace the government one. State Department, Defense Department, etc. It won't all be savings.

Ah but what if they stay and try to take over?

Well good luck with it.
