Westbrick 03/25/12 11:57:00 PM #6:	2010 populations: California: 37,253,956 Texas: 25,145,561 California wins Clearly, then, the US would lose in a war to China. Right? Anyway, the obvious answer here is Texas. IIRC it's the eighth-largest economy in the world when taken as its own sovereign state. A world capital for energy and oil, huge expansion rates (Houston's on track to become the third biggest city in the country)... oh, and don't forget about how they love their guns. -- Tebow to Jests? http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m19b15IB731qzdb47o1_400.png <cite>Westbrick posted [p:948898] in If Texas a...

RevolverSaro 03/26/12 12:03:00 AM #8:	Texas may be the eight largest economy in the world, Westbrick, but California is the FIFTH largest. So it has the advantage there. As for Oil,it may not produce as much as texas, but its no slouch in its own right in that regard. Houston may be on track to the third largest city, but California has San Francisco and LA. As for guns... well, you are underestimating how many are in LA, lest you forget we have Compton, Watts, East LA, etc. Not to mention we have numerous high profile military bases such as Edwards Airforce Base and Camp Pendelton -- "Don't freeze up girl, you're looking quite a sight." - Adam Ant.

CalvinbalI 03/26/12 12:05:00 AM #9:	I'd say it's more a question of oil. If California can procure a steady refined oil supply then they'd probably win. But that would be difficult, what with almost all major US oil refineries being stationed in Texas or Louisiana. -- "It's a magical world, Hobbes ol' buddy...let's go exploring!" - Calvin http://img.imgcake.com/calvinfinalpngpy.png <cite>CalvinbalI posted [p:948901] in If Texas a...

BakusaiTenketsu 03/26/12 12:06:00 AM #10:	Whoever wins... Nevada, Utah, Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and Oklahoma all lose. As an ex-Californian myself, I think they would lose to Texas, especially in a ground war. It wasn't specified that military would be involved, so I assume just based on the inhabitants alone, Texas has the upper-hand. -- http://dl.glitter-graphics.net/pub/256/256671ex078gxgzf.gif <cite>BakusaiTenketsu posted [p:948902] in If Texas a...

PartOfYourWorld 03/26/12 12:13:00 AM #11:	From: BakusaiTenketsu \| #010 Whoever wins... Nevada, Utah, Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and Oklahoma all lose. As an ex-Californian myself, I think they would lose to Texas, especially in a ground war. It wasn't specified that military would be involved, so I assume just based on the inhabitants alone, Texas has the upper-hand. I'd imagine a silly hypothetical like this would try to take all of a state's resources into account, and I believe that California has more military bases and a larger military population than any other state in the country. As for the general populations, the gun-toting Texan cowboy stereotype means little when the population discrepancy is just that great. Texas may be a Republican state, but John McCain got more votes in CA than he did in TX despite getting his ass kicked in Cali. It's that much more populated. I'm sure it has more guns as well. -- Yoblazer: http://i33.tinypic.com/ml36gl_th.gif Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! <cite>PartOfYourWorld posted [p:948903] in If Texas a...
