Quote from: Matthew
They had a chance to be independent of the devil's left arm (the right arm being the United States), and they turned it down.

William Wallace must be turning over in his grave.

All the Scottish people had to do was VOTE and they could have had their own country!
Just goes to show you how widespread stupidity is, as well as how powerful the media and propaganda are.
Perhaps Texas can be next Matthew.

I foresee a vote by the lonestar state to secede from the Union.

Scotland blew their chance.

Would Texas do the same?

I don't know, are most Texans "stupid"?

George W. Bush sure angered a lot of lefties when during the build up to the Iraq War he quipped, "I was the governor of a state that is bigger than France."

In the U.S., a lot of states would be better off not being part of the collective. Texas is one of them.

Texas is dependent on the federal government. It receives $250 billion from the federal government annually, more than any other state except California and equal to 16% of Texas' annual economic output. Until it finds a way to replace this revenue stream, secession is a pipe dream.

How much does Texas send to the Federal Government in income taxes and other taxes?

The Federal Government can't just give money out of their largesse (which they don't have), so they either get the funds in taxes from others or they borrow it from foreign countries (who also do not have a large surplus of cash on hand so the borrowing is in assets or promises).

I think I would rather have an independent state for Jews to live in than have Jews living in my country.

Well, that was the logic that was used to sell the goys on the idea in the first place. Winston Churchill wrote an impassioned defense of Zionism well before the War whose thesis amounted to little more than "Look, if we just give them Palestine they'll be satisfied and they'll stop trying to take over the world."

Well, we're coming up on seven decades since the UN Partition Plan... how does that Churchillian logic look now?

Where else are we going to send them where they will not become a problem?

I think Pope St. Pius V had the right idea in Hebraeorum Gens Sola.

Maybe I am just trying to put myself in their shoes and I shouldn't be doing that.

Where are we going to send them in the case we decide on another inquisition?

Should we let them live in our countries? They will continue to exploit our weaknesses for the advancement of their agenda if we do.

Should we slay them?

In 2013, for every $1.00 Texans paid in federal taxes, they received $1.43 back from the federal government.

Quote from: Pope St. Pius V

“The Jєωιѕн people fell from the heights because of their faithlessness and condemned their Redeemer to a shameful death. Their godlessness has assumed such forms that, for the salvation of our own people, it becomes necessary to prevent their disease. Besides usury, through which Jews everywhere have sucked dry the property of impoverished Christians, they are accomplices of thieves and robbers; and the most damaging aspect of the matter is that they allure the unsuspecting through magical incantations, superstition, and witchcraft to the ѕуηαgσgυє of Satan and boast of being able to predict the future. We have carefully investigated how this revolting sect abuses the name of Christ and how harmful they are to those whose life is threatened by their deceit. On account of these and other serious matters, and because of the gravity of their crimes which increase day to day more and more, We order that, within 90 days, all Jews in our entire earthly realm of justice - in all towns, districts, and places - must depart these regions. After this time limit shall all at the present or in the future, who dwell or wander into that city or other already mentioned, be affected, their property confiscated and handed over to the Siscus, and they shall becomes slaves of the Roman Church, live in perpetual servitude and the Roman Church shall have the same rights over them as the remaining [worldly] lords over slaves and property.” (Hebraeorum Gens Sola)

How did you arrive at that figure? I'm not saying you are wrong, I'm just saying that when you go to websites that are run by political hacks, they often leave categories out of their equation. Also, is this website counting federal money spent on military installations as part of the total?

If you are correct, that means that some other state is paying more than they get. Government doesn't give anything that it didn't already take from somewhere else.
