Either stop-gaps would be put into place to help them transition off or, in cases where the individual truly can’t care for themselves, local charity would help out a lot more. Without the tax burden imposed by the federal government, Texas and its citizens would have a huge surplus. That could be used to create (if necessary) Texas-internal programs or to trade for things that Texas can’t create on its own."<a href="https://www.quora.com/If-Texas-were-to-secede-would-it-be-able-to-sustain-itself" target="_blank">https://www.quora.com/If-Texas-were-to-secede-would-it-be-able-to-sustain-itself</a></blockquote>
