quote “That’s because your state receives far more back from Uncle Sam in government spending than you pay in federal taxes. If you go it alone, you’ll have to make up the difference yourselves. “
um... no.
Because we would stop paying for most of the crap the federal government does. Those states the article mentions that receive so much more in federal assistance than the rest of the nation... just happen to have the largest percentage of blacks, which disproportionately use welfare and over federal government handouts.
If we seceeded. We would STOP all those welfare payments to those groups causing them to.... flee to the North where they can once again be happy on the plantation having their every want taken care of including free Obama-phones!
Think of all the current federaly mandated programs/expensive laws that could be trashed.
Exactly! If secession ever happened the leaches would be the first to leave. Without them TX would be in a much better position to flourish.

Or, because those groups are a growing demographic, they could vote their own into power and have all the social programs reinstated.
Then the seceded states can pay for all that without any help from other states or the federal government.
The secession now folks here at FR are deluding themselves...first by thinking secession will ever actually happen, and second by thinking it would play out according to their fantasies.
I personally think they’ve been listening to too many Hank Williams Jr. records lol.
