I’m sure Russia would love to get the state back. LaRaza has as much chance as Russia
"Starve out the cities" is the same way. A lot of rural areas in the country can't feed themselves either and rely on farms and processing plants elsewhere or on government transfer payments.
Having to go through customs to get to work or visit relatives or go shopping would tie up a lot of resources and make everybody furious. So much of the stuff that people need to have and love to have comes from overseas now. Imagine if it had to go through a hundred border crossings to get to you.
Austin's culture is a plus for him, not a minus. Nonetheless, the rest of Texas is very different and more supportive of business. Think of it as California fifty years ago. San Francisco was crazy, but the rest of the state wasn't a bad place to live or do business. Maybe 20 years from now Texas will be like California, but by then, Musk will be on Mars and have other things to worry about.

You do realize this is a movement that has gained momentum in CA and Mexico for over 40 years and that Mexico is all for it? And has supplied many people to resettle the state.
Frankly they can have it for all I care.
California has had an economy right behind Germany in productivity
It has enormous ports and bases.
It will cripple the country and make in less defendable if it becomes a border.
Yeah its lost anyway ... no one stands up everyone is too comfortable watching their phones texting having ‘fun’ partying playing sleeping. I knew it was over 4 decades ago - you guys are just sniffing after a rotting corpse.
Travis county and the city of Austin are just as bad as California — the rest of Texas is largely irrelevant there.
For that matter, every major city everywhere is now as bad as California. Soros bought them all.
They appear to be more responsive than the costal states to their citizens opinions and desires. Where you at?
Georgia.
In Georgia, all a Republican politician has to do to get elected is mention the 2nd Amendment and they want to lower taxes. They don’t have to do much about the 2A, and actually have chickened out on a few things.
As for taxes, typical promises with no action
They have no problem flooding the state with illegals and refugees. Most, if not almost ALL of the people hate the $800,000,000 that the movie industry gets in tax breaks that we’ve never had a voice in giving.
Hate the fact that, like Texas, they want every tech company to move. Be use we all know that means more liberals. Folks we don’t want.
The Amish are going to inherit the earth.
