    If Texas seceded from the Union tomorrow, it would be ranked in the top ten largest economies in the world, according to worldatlas.com, according to USAToday, according to the official Treasury Department, according to Wikipedia.

    So if you truly believe they were worthless I would say you sound incredibly fucking dumb and hateful almost like a belligerent Q-Anon/MAGA retard.

      And how would they rank when you take away the federal funding they get for the plethora of government contracts there? Or when oil has gone the way of the dodo.

      Saudi Arabia has a huge fossil fuel economy too and they’re fucking less than worthless.

      Texas is a blight on the US and the rest of us would be better without them. I don’t give a single fuck about Texas.

        It would still be ranked top ten.

        Saudis are industrious and produce more than just oil, and you are starting to sound racist.

        Texas can suck my micropenis. That being said, you can take your racist generalizations and hateful shit the fuck out of here. The state is full of many good people there too.
