I would love to see one of these Galt’s Gulches, and I love to see new ideas for advancing their success. Unfortunately, there are any number of excuses that existing governments could use to invade them. Maybe after force field shields are invented.

A sovereign nation of Texas would hardly be a libertarian utopia, but it would at least allow more people the option of voting with their feet. I’ve been following the Texit movement, and after going through the enormous amount of expense and effort to collect 140,000 signatures to put an advisory referendum to reassert Texas’s status as an independent nation on the Republican primary ballot, the Texas Republican Party is trying to weasel out of allowing it on the ballot as required, and seems to have the upper hand.
