I think Texas should set the example, and refuse to accept a penny of federal money, and thus be under the fed’s thumb at least for the requirements that come with accepting money from Uncle Sam.

Texas can make up for the funding difference by levying a severance tax on refined petroleum products and taxing oil and gas at the wellhead.

I think Texas should take every penny it can get back from Washington and just weezel its way out of complying with the Federal mandates.

Them penny’s are TEXAS tax dollars stolen from the hardworking pockets of Texas citizens!

Do what Perry did, tell Washington want ever they want to hear to get the money back then run! Also never hesitate to complain about the corrupt situation & process and campaign to get.

We should not have to wezel and cheat to get OUR money back. That money came from Texas It should never have left Texas in the first place.

We Texans elect our own government to do our bidding, we don’t need Washington D.C. Hijacking OUR duly elected State government.

Yes Perry do what you do best, wezle that money back into our hands then stab the Feds in the back!
