It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure this one out.

More idiotic threads from the OP. I'm sensing a pattern.

Until the Feds allow TX to deport illegals you'll continue to send more money to TX and you'll like it. You can't block us from fixing a problem then blame us for the cost of that problem.

How many times has the Fed come out and said that immigration and border control is the Fed's baby and state's cannot touch it ?

The Fed owns immigration and if they want to welcome these "undocumented Americans" then they will have to foot the bill as well.

That and being the global policeman keeping the defense money flowing in.

The left seem to think we have a state full of "Tea Party Republicans" lining up for foods stamps and Section 8 housing with they way they talk.

The left should be happy that Texas is not one of the states that allow illegals to go on medicaid.
Then you'd be talking some real serious money.

Bingo.

If the feds want to tie the hands of TX when it comes to illegal aliens then they should just smile as they write the checks to cover the cost of them being here.

It's an investment in Democrat voters. If you guys want to turn TX blue you'll have to keep paying for them somehow. Just shut up and keep writing the checks for your caged voters.

Texas also specializes in low pay. When they secede and we cut off all federal money, we should see a great deal of savings there we can re-direct to setting up single-payer systems in the progressive/sane states.

Which state would you like us to ship all of your blue, mailbox money voters to?

No thanks - Texas can keep its Tea Partiers, its Mormon compounds with women and children held in captivity, and other nonsense

Given your background I'll try to say this as slowly and simply as possible...

Where do we send the millions of blue voters that you've cultivated here for decades? TX is filled with leeches that are encouraged and protected by liberal Democrat policies, we'd like to relocate them to blue states where they're obviously welcome. Can we send them up to you in NJ? No wait, of course not. NJ fools only support illegal immigrants when they're "over there".
