Jonas, i saw a report on RT(tv station) that Texas has all the resourses it needs to go it alone, they are not dependant on the national power grid, got natural gas, oil wells, it even said some guys at the mint we're being paid in SILVER...they said its a commodity like eggs or bread so the feds cant tax it!!
The government can only tax the face value of the coin. The 1 oz US silver eagle has a $1 face value and is an official US coin. The 1 oz Canadian maple leaf has a face value of $5C.
There was a federal court case over in Utah in the last few years which confirmed that the value for tax purposes of a US silver eagle is, in fact, $1!
As far as Texas "going it alone", about 30% of Texans think it's a good idea. The right to secession is even written into our state constitution. Texas was an independent republic once, and could certainly revert to that status without too many problems.
