Texas cannot legally secede, despite what the

people think. This has been settled federally.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_v._White
>Texas v. White, 74 U.S. 700 (1869) was a significant case argued before the United States Supreme Court in 1869
>[...]
>In accepting original jurisdiction, the court ruled that, legally speaking, Texas had remained a United States state ever since it first joined the Union, despite its joining the Confederate States of America and its being under military rule at the time of the decision in the case. In deciding the merits of the bond issue, the court further held that the Constitution did not permit states to unilaterally secede from the United States, and that the ordinances of secession, and all the acts of the legislatures within seceding states intended to give effect to such ordinances, were "absolutely null"

And illegal aliens can't legally stay in the country. Yet here we are.
>>78701558
gulf of mexico would also link up with the same reasoning for the pacific. access to different waterways, plus gulf of mexico holds a lot of strategic value
>>78701807
Texas has a long coast along the gulf of mexico already

I still don't understand why that's a problem, especially a problem that could be solved by declaring war on mexico.

The answer would be like any other illegal secession: war. Texas deciding to pull the plug with trade/import impacts would not come before long periods of struggle, at which point all the nukes would be rendered inert, etc, we bomb you and call lit a day to scare the other 49 states into submission unless you surrender. Guns don't do much good against drones, nukes, tanks, etc.
>b-b-but all my reserve capacity in texas
Would be moved or disabled long before secession
>what if texas snapped and did it without consulting the citizens
Then more reason to drop nukes immediately and hope for the best.
Texans are crazy, a year in Houston was MORE than enough for me.

We are already independent
>>78702629 here
But hey, let's assume no nukes and Texas secedes and the US is too pussy for war.
>1% of the population is federal government; all jobless
>huge amounts of water come from outside the state, this would no longer be provided and the infrastructure would need to be built in the state to handle
>taxes are low while bonds at good interest rates are fairly high; combine with the unemployment, reduced trade and the deficit widens even further, Texas could not get money
>without other states to carry the load the new Texas dollar wouold widely inflate, Mexico & US want to back off, unemployment continues to rise, agro exports cannot go to the US
>texas in ruins
The brexit is real on national identity but TX is more dependent on the US in many ways than the UK is dependent on the EU (Although Britain has a lot of services based economy that will make the brexit very difficult).

First off you fucking cowboy poser, you are staying in our Union for ever. Second, it's better just to fucking annex Mexico than to build a wall. The same with Canada. We can grind out 20 new states from Mexico and 30 new states from Canada. Can you fucking imagine this? One hundred states- one hundred stars- and here you are, wanting to be just one star. Our 100 star flag will be the envy of the world.

>war.
yeah, sure. Dumbass
>>78701972
I have a house in Texas. I would like to move there when everything goes sour. Please wait until the rest of the south decides their done with yankee bullshit before you decide to pull out.
>>78702629
Texas goes, most of Dixie goes, and the midwest, and the west, and 80 percent of the military.
Eat shit Yankee.
>>78701114
We wouldn't invade Mexico immediately after seceding.
We'd shore up defenses before anything.
Depending on the situation, we may not invade anybody.
Also, don't forget how easily we could get Russia or someone else to help us. Texas has connections.
>>78703193
>let's assume no nukes
Only a moron would assume nukes in a succession scenario.
Why would a government nuke their own citizens?
If the government did nuke a secessionist-held city, all of a sudden, the government becomes hostis humani generis, and everyone stops dealing with the US government and begins invading to stop the crimes against humanity.
>>78703214
yeah that sounds like a good idea. Heck why not just have one world government? Then everybody could be as awesome as us
>nuking Austin
implying this is a bad thing
>>78701114
Nice

>OP wakes up with a cock in his ass
>>78702629
Let's say Texas does leave. Why would the US bomb it? If the US does eventually win, it would still have to rebuild all the shit it destroyed. Then there is public opinion. There is a big difference between bombing sandniggers on the other side of the world, and people you might be related to.

>supreme court meaning anything
Andrew Jackson would like a word with you
>>78705263
Finally, it happened. Finally, I discovered someone else on this board who agrees that the US should just annex the entire world. 1000 states - 1000 Stars and Stripes. Forever.
But first things first- we need to focus our energies on Mexico and Canada.
Canada first because they are really weak, and probably deep down want us to take them...
Mexico comes next- then those fucking clowns in Central America.

We can turn Denmark into 5 states. A solid five states. In fact we can dedicate one state just for making strudels and Danishes.
