FWIW, they'd easily be a powerful country on their own.
You people cannot be foolish enough to think this would ever be allowed to happen.
Why would that be so shocking? That's the history of nations.

How will the rest of the states take it? You think a trade embargo hurts the USA more than Texas?
Where is the source for this large contingent of Texans wanting to secede forever, and why haven't they done it?

I'm not predicting it will happen, but if it did at some point no student of history should be surprised, no matter how good or bad it may be for either side.
I thought it was common knowledge how popular a sentiment Texan independence is. They haven't done it because it hasn't been popular enough yet. The point is Texas culture is known, perhaps abive all others in the country, to feature this common sentiment.
