  • California has the fifth largest economy in the world, Texas has half the GDP of California and still manages to post a net loss.

    There’s a reason we clown on Texas about it and that reason is because Texas quite literally cannot survive on its own but screeches constantly about threatening secession. California on the other hand would survive just fine without a single one of the entire rest of the States but they don’t constantly remind everyone of that fact.

    Texas gets made fun of for it because the answer to “Well what would you do without Texas, huh???” is… I’d pay less taxes because Texas wouldn’t be sucking down a bunch of surplus anymore.

    Notably, local conservatives out firing guns at FEMA who showed up to try and save their lives.

    If I’m helping save your life and you send a bullet whizzing past my head then yeah, I’m going to leave you where you are as well.

    This, of course, was reported as “FEMA is refusing to help Republicans!” and not “Local Conservatives perform war crime, fire deadly weapons at humanitarian aid”
