Taiwan isn’t completely financially dependent on the PRC, while Hawaii would need to give up its three primary sources of income from the US; the military, tourist industry and public transfer payments.

Two out of three; the tourist industry would persist. And you think the commies wouldn't take that?

I suppose it would persist. But somehow I don't think it would at its current quality level.

In a few years it'll probably be more like visiting Jamaica.
