"The Republic of Texas" is an intriguing thought. A WHOLE LOT of details would have to be worked out. We would immediately lose - the Army, Airforce, Marines, Coast Guard, FBI, DEA, Air Traffic Control, All federal departments (Agriculture, Health, Transportation, Highway, etc.). Man, there are so many others. Social Security and Health care are a biggie. What happens to all the old folk and disabled who rely solely on those programs? Where does Mamaw go when a family does good just to support itself? Could Texas manage the task? It's over my head to understand but I think if we could and do, it's still a long ways off. Wouldn't we have to develop or base infrastructures first? That could take years. What happens in the mean time? A paramilitary government maybe? That would have to be the case I would think. Man, lots of details.
