Texans currently pay, in all, federal and state taxes an average of $336 billion per year. This represents the total amount of revenue readily available to an independent Texas without increasing the financial burden on Texans one single cent. From that amount, subtract the amount spent by both the federal government and state government in Texas. $228 billion is the average amount of expenditures required to maintain every program, every job (both civilian and military), every department, every facility (including military bases), and fulfill every function (including current federal contract spending to Texas companies) provided by the federal and state governments. This level of government revenue would rank Texas 12th in the world for government revenue collected. https://texitnow.org/will-texas-be-able-to-fund-the-government-after-texit/

There are hundreds of millions of us who want this insanity to end. We need to band together, not splinter and weaken. States especially need to reclaim their sovereignty and show their power against the fed. Realise that the power is opposite of how it appears. The federal government is controlled by the states in turn controlled by the people. Time to put every one of them, republicans included, back in their place. Hang tight texas, we are with you.

However, when it comes to Texas v. White, more and more academics are adopting the stance of historian Dr. Brion McClanahan. When asked that very question at an academic conference in Florida, his response was an indignant, “So what?”https://texitnow.org/didnt-the-supreme-court-declare-secession-unconstitutional/

However, these political and economic ties are not so tight or intricately interwoven that it would be impossible to untangle them. In many instances, it would not be necessary to untangle them at all. There is no part of the relationship between Texas and the rest of the United States that could not be accomplished by utilizing existing State-level institutions and agencies, executing bilateral agreements between Texas and the United States, or by Texas signing onto multilateral international agreements that are already in place.https://texitnow.org/is-texas-too-integrated-with-the-united-states-to-texit/
