Texas gets a ton of money from the Federal government. What it doesn't get from the Feds it borrows using bond referendums. When the Federal money is cut off Texas' economy will collapse within six months.
interesting. thanks for the info. disappointing to hear. i would have assumed like others that Texas would be the best suited to be self sustaining from both a physical/resource standpoint and the general attitude.

It would have an economy like Mexico with a single source product (oil) to sell. It's be a 80/20 society where 80% of the state lived in the barrio.
I would think of all the states, the most likely ones are the Dakotas, or even Montana or Wyoming. Texas has been progressively worst at maintaining laws than those states. Comparatively consitutional carry has been a thing in Wyoming and Montana for years, Texas JUST passed it a few months or maybe a year ago
