How is it that the island of Nevis is pursuing  secession and making headway  on the matter and here in Texas it has not happened? 

Nevis is an island that is currently in a federation with the island of St. Kitts. The government of the federation is on St. Kitts. Since it is the larger of the two islands, it dominates the legislature. Nevis often does not receiving funds for its needs from the federation. They have often had to ‘go it alone’, even though the other island takes in revenues from taxes, tourists, etc., none of what they take in is shared between the islands. The Federation has a long history of ignoring the needs of Nevis.

Consider Texas. Do we receive our share of the funds contributed to the Yankee government. Consider all the fuel taxes, income taxes, postage, school taxes and other taxes. What is the likelihood that we receive what the same percentage that was contributed? Not likely.  Consider what the Congress critters have spent money on-things like foreign aid, welfare and other financial programs that they were not given the authorization to spend on. They took on that authority without a valid contract with the people or the states to do so. They operated outside the law, as they continue to do so.

Consider the issues in Congress. Are our voices heard? When the issues important to Texas are considered is action taken? Are the borders with Mexico secured? Do we receive a proportional share of tax dollars for border patrol? Does the Congress consider Texas sensibilities concerning morals,guns, religious issues or values taught in the government indoctrination centers?  Texas sensibilities are often ignored or purposely overruled by federal courts. It is not by accident that Roe v. Wade, Lawrence v. Texas, and other important legal decrees were imposed on Texas and the nation. When the Imperial judges slap down Texas, they are slapping down the values of all Southrons.

If we had been truly educated that when we see places like the island of Nevis clamoring for independence for  less that what has been done to Texas, we would be clamoring for secession as well. In the last secession vote, there were 63% in favor of seceding from St. Kitts. They needed the required 67%. When the next vote comes, it is likely that they will be a new nation. If the small island nation of St. Kitts has the courage to allow Nevis to vote on whether or not to stay in their union, then perhaps the Feds could learn something from that Caribbean nation and consider allowing the Southron states to at least vote on secession.

For Texas,
