Then you'd be ok with Texas refusing federal funds for Education, Police, Fire, and Hospitals....that make up the state's tax collection deficit?

Just collect and spend at state level, right? You're full of shit if you think Texas can hold its own without help from the federal gov't. You can barely prop up the port of Galveston without federal help.
