Can Texas survive without federal funds? That’s what the first step will be. It won’t be armed troops. It will be cutting off federal money until Texas complies.
That’s one of the great things about Texas - yes, it can.
It can probably survive better without “federal funds” than the feds can survive without Texas income taxes.
Also, Texas is a net exporter of electricity, so no fed leverage there, either.
Conservative states are going to kick the feds out, as much as they can- and not accept the federal money, thereby not submitting to the federal government.
Then the conservative states will work together, shut out the progressives, and we will have a divided country.
So be it.
North Carolina is making many moves to get away from the feds. We need to encourage others to pay attention to their state and local governments. Because YES- states are getting rid of the federal government.
Can we make it? Of course we can. We WANT them to get out of our states. We are PUSHING them out.
Right now Texas sends Washington more than it receives. All we need to do - all the states need to do is starve the beast - don’t sed money to Washington. See how long they last without our supporting them.
So the Feds will cut off the funds to Texas, they receive from Texas first?
