Texas “We don’t need federal government tellin us what to do”
Texas “We’re rugged and independent, we got our own grid do screw off”
Texas “Feds are inept and useless. Well do it on own own”
Also Texas “Feds! Halp us w our borders that we can’t fix!! Heeelllp!”
Ain’t it hilarious how the ‘pull themselves up by the bootstraps’ crowd goes into fucking anaphylaxis whenever they talked about shutting down Carswell (SAC leftover) or Lackland (SAC/training leftover) or any of the dozen+ smaller installations back in the 90s.
Texas wants to declare independence LOLOLOLOL
Can you fucking imagine the look on their faces if they get what they want?
Think about how much military production occurs in texas - bell, lockheed, boeing, pratt and whitney, raytheon, l3 harris, textron, SAIC, Honeywell and dozens more would be like “BYE FELICIA” because the country of texas isn’t going to be buying all those arms and the country of THE USA isn’t going to let their equipment be produced by a hostile gov.
According to the US Bureau of Labor Stats - Texas ranks #1 for commercial aviation, #1 in aviation engineers, #2 aircraft mechanics, #2 in avionics techs. Just those jobs alone would deprive the state of billions.
So yeah, Texas, please, go ahead and shoot yourselves in the face! It’ll be fucking hilarious. Make Cali even stronger at the same time. You fucking bellends.
