Texas Is a Shining Example of Right-Wing Governance: Complete Basket-Case

[Kamala]

Pretty much sums it up.

Given the amount that they want to short change education in Texas so that they don't have to raise taxes, the very mobility of labor that Republicans say led to people going to a "low tax" state, will take companies out of the state to places where they can find an educated workforce.

I can only stand in awe of the slow-motion trainwreck they are setting up.

Texas' success is due to an accident of geography, but gutting of education funding at all levels, elementary through college, will be definitetly attributable to one party's policies, and that will have real-world effects.

I am puzzled by the education cuts. The inequities of the texas school finance system are going to result in a huge lawsuit.

"real-world effects."

If a democrat was in charge,. I'll bet you would look for and find an article that stated "Ten reasons why the Texas economy is growing that have everything to do with <insert democrat here>"

Remember, the media is that biased.

This is particularly amusing coming from you. When you're not rambling off some ridiculous supply side economic rubbish you're making excuses for the GOP, tea party or some corporation.

"That could affect Texas, the state with the largest number of active-duty military personnel — 131,548, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

Texas has the third largest number of Defense Department civilian employees, with 48,057.

Then add in all the 10s of 1000s of civil service employees and contractors supporting the above, and you see that TX is floating in taxpayer dollars from the other "56 states".

And Ricky Bobby Perry's God did it all for God's Chosen Pres candidate Ricky Bobby.
