Texas Independence

I keep wondering if we should let Texans get their wish as long as they understand what it means:

1. They forfeit all claims to their Social Security.
2. Their seniors lose their Medicare and their veterans lose their health insurance as well.
3. We would close all our military bases in Texas.
4. The border patrol would drop back to the new border between the remaining United States of America and the Republic of Texas.
5. Texas oil would become an import and put in the same class as oil from the Middle East.
6. All commerce and travel between the US and Texas would have to go through customs.
7. They get all the teabaggers.
