Tex

Tex: noun. The Tex is a special add on tax imposed on Texans whilst in other parts of the USA. Although such discrimination is officially illegal, it continues because of the super-secret Operation Burrito, which was put into action as the result of a dirty and dishonest compromise between the local Texan government and the government of the USA. By consenting to the addition of a secret extra tax on Texans in the other 49 states, Texas hoped to bolster national spirit and prove Texan supremacy by demonstrating how high the Texan purchasing power parity was in comparison with the rest of the USA. The US government, on the other hand, sought to use the Tex to curb separatist tendencies in the rest of the USA by limiting Texan travel, thus convincing the US electorate that Texans don't really exist.
