So...TX secedes and all of a sudden has all the problems of a small nation. Gosh, what to do? Oh, golly, we're gonna have to raise taxes because we have to pay for services. I mean have you seen those roads? Since we don't get those evil Federal dollars any more it's gonna cost us about 3X as much.
And all the jobs we lost from those war contracts...geez. But hey, we can export oil until it runs out and we don't need to toe no line to no EPA. What?? The people in Dallas are revolting against pollution caused by our total deregulation and don't like the increasing number of oil spills? Hey, suck it up! This is Texas!
Plus we got good news. We don't need no common core and we've decided to deregulate and privatize schools. They's gonna be an Evangelical brand of madrassa schools. Yep. We's gonna have our kids memorize the Bible in school. They don't need none o' that egghead devil-science! Nope. The world is 6,000 years old...
