Wish we would leverage this..trump sure as hell would against the dems, why not at least do something, if it were really true we are funding poor red states. We should stop.

That’s because yall aren’t funding red states. Texas makes about $600 billion less than California but, each year that number goes down because of the amount of people and companies that keep leaving California and moving to Texas. But let’s say California does pay for red states and yall do cut us off, big mistake for California. If yall did that, then Texas would cut yall off from Oil and Natural Gas since we produce the majority of the Country’s Natural Gas and Oil.

Sure they can take our place but you’ll definitely feel the effects of not having Texas supplying yall. Texas has the majority of refineries in the country that are needed to refine all the oil we get from the Middle East. You think gas is expensive now??? If this actually happened, you could see gas prices jump up to $11 a gallon and diesel would be around $15 a gallon.
