Someones give me a little pros and cons list if they secede. What do they offer the country?

No aid required next time their state freezes

cons - they have no legal right to secede and the US government won't let them. It would not be pretty.

A fuckton of federal spending - F35s in DFW, bell textron helos, missiles and other stuff; Fort Hood and Fort Bliss are GIGANTIC, there's defense spending all over the state. It's not staying in The Fuckjikistan of Texas
