Texas preps to go it alone

Weirdos. So happy I'm from the northeast.

Cause banning certain sizes of sodas isn't weird or a total waste of time.

How can anyone believe the stereotype that Texans are entitled, blowhard @ssholes with no respect for others after reading the sweet words of our beloved irishpat?

Smooches?

LOL.....


Even that made me laugh.


I only disagree with "entitled".

Maybe he's just jealous you slaughtered him in the Internet Tough Guy of the Year election.

Robbery.

Ditto. Called this months ago with IH and IrishPat. But happy to share real estate in the backyard.

and furthermore at least nobody will have to hear anymore of that "the Cowboys are America's team" horse sheeeit if this happens.

Wrong. The NFL would finally be in two countries and Cowboy's fans would claim to be the team of both.

Nope. They would be in the new four team TFL. That would be the Texans, Cowboys, Longhorns and the new El Paso Locos.

Maybe further down the road the Zetas and Sinaloa cartel would decide to form teams and the TFL could expand into some of the border towns as well.

But college football would go down the sh*tter. Arguably the most furtile ground in the country when it comes to High school football

How crazy would it be for recruits and players to travel with passports to play games in Texas? LOL.

Also why do folks think the USA is going to collapse.

Is it the debt? We issue our own dollars that is why can borrow for like 1. something percent. You got Spain and Greece borrowing at these crazy interest rates. Why? Because they gave up their own currency and the right to issue their own currency. That is why the EU is going up in flames. The United States is not the EU we are not going to collapse.

You do realize that the US does not print its own money whatsoever,and that we also gave up the right to issue our own currency during the early 20th century. The Federal Reserve prints it, and they are absolutely not part of the US government whatsoever. They are a private institution owned and directed by private shareholders who loan the US money. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, but with such an incompetent and wasteful government it just digs a deeper hole since the interest has been compounding and we are currently running at a big loss. We all know how powerful compounding interest is as a way to make money, but it also works the opposite way as well. The main issue is that the US can't actually go full on bankrupt because we have the largest economy in the world, and thus can't get out from under the compounding debt avalanche that it is currently under without enforcing extreme tax hikes and huge government reductions which nobody is really willing to do.

So essentially, all of our debt is owned by a few foreign banks and the only way to get more money to stimulate the economy enough to pay it back is to borrow it from the people who own the debt. I am not advocating trying to go back to the gold standard, but it essentially allowed the people who print the money to create an infinite stream of wealth out of thin air without ever actually having to have the equivalent wealth in the first place. They can then loan that worthless paper money to impoverished governments at an interest rate, and then they legally hold the rights to everything the governments own as collateral for the debt on the worthless paper money they created out of thin air.

Honestly there is too much information on this to even begin to lay out all aspects of this subject in a football forum, but if you are curious about this then just Google it as there is information everywhere. It will make more sense than my doomsday rant above because it really isn't as bad you think it is once you get really deep into it.
