Spot on brother. I would upvote you more than once if I could.
The United States has broken its "Contract" with Texas. No Border Security, Confiscatory Taxation w/o representation, spreading Criminal Invaders throughout our lands, and other atrocities. The same could be said for other states and while I feel bad for them, not my circus, not my monkeys.
That is where the Texit talk comes from in my estimation. I too love America and the concept of what America was back in the day. We aren't there right now. We won't get back to the point without a very long, hard, protracted fight that will likely escalate to the trading of many injuries.
When compared to taking our treasure, families, and tribes to do our own thing under our existing State Constitution, it is a rather easy call, pragmatically speaking. Among terrible, shitty choices that have been foisted upon us, bugging out seems infinitely better than dying on the hill.
It is worth remembering that each State is designed to be a nation unto itself, coming together for the common defense and common good. That isn't happening.
