    *Ben Shapiro voice* - Lets say, hypothetically, Texas does manage to become an independent country. What is the over/under on number of days before mass humanitarian aid needs to be sent to rescue the people living there?

      Zero. Texas is large enough to take care of themselves. Without all the taxes going to the federal government, they would easily handle their expenses and secure the border. I am not sure why people think a state like Texas would just fall apart without the federal government. Texas has 29 million people. Texas has more exports than California. Texas has the 2nd largest GDP of any state in the union.
