I swear it's the rectum of the USA. Most of the most harmful political types have come from Texass. LBJ. Bush2. Tom Delay, etc. Not only that, but so many tragedties has taken place there, the Alamo, the '60s college gunman on the clocktower, JFK's assination, Waco, etc. The place is cursed. Plus, it has no culture, has a terrible education system, it thinks high school football is a religion and it's overrun with illegals everywhere. Ignorant Texans think BBQ is haute cuisine. Also, the local mentality of "bigger is better" and "don't mess with Texass" is beyond cartoonish and moronic. I think nearly 90% of them are disgustinly obese as well. If we nuked that hell hole, along with it's 3rd generation or greater inhabitants and turned it into a glass parking lot the country would be much better off.

Good riddance I'd say. They probably account for 10% of the GDP of the US, and about 2% of the brainpower. Maybe Texas could take Alabama, Mississippi and Georgia with 'em. Arkansas too. Oh, and Utah. That state needs to go. They can put 'em all together and call it <br /><br />"BackwardAssReligiousNutistan"<br /><br />Keith, this doesn't help. Have you spent any time in the South?

Texas taxpayers receive less federal funding per dollar of federal taxes paid compared to the average state."<br /><br />..but per your link (skip this part Hannity fans) TX receives more per dollar taxed than NY, NJ, CA, IL, WA, OR, MA, MN, DE & MI. (FL gets 3 cents more than Texas, but is also a "donor.") <br /><br />I would think that any state with enough industry to support a large population is probably going to end up being a donor state (with the exceptions of GA, OH, NC and PA which are all slightly in the negative, while VA, MD and DC which are higher in federal spending for obvious reasons.) An exception on the plus side would be NV which is low in population, but 2nd best $ rec/$ taxed (again for obvious reasons.) <br /><br />It is interesting that the red states tend to take in more than they pay, particularly in Sarah "Thanks, but No Thanks" Palin (3rd) and Bobby "Damn the Rescue Boats" Jindal's (4th) respective fiefdoms. <br /><br />Interesting facts, but it is sad to hear of Texans wanting to bail out now that the going is tough. I always thought they were made of better stuff than that.
