We have the blueprint for prosperity

Average GDP in Texas is $3000 a year lower than IL.

It also has worse schools, worse quality of life, less people who finish High School, and a whole bunch of others.

Hey, guy, I know this might be a stretch for you, but a society that only works for rich people isn't working.

Really? Then why have the wife and I been able to make close to three hundred grand a year before I retired and neither one of us has a college degree? It's the land of opportunity if you have a work ethic.

I know a lot of people with work ethics who are struggling. But that's okay, man.

Just remember the Republican Mantra.

"I've got mine, Fuck You!"

And then wonder why you keep losing elections.

So you know a lot of people struggling in Texas? No? Thats what I thought.
And yeah I worked my ass off for mine. Those who didn't? Fuckem not my problem.
You take care of yourself,and I'll take care of myself. Which is how it should be.
 
Texas on the Brink: Too Few Graduates, Too Many Uninsured

"How’s Texas doing? Not so great: The state ranks 50th in high school graduation rate"

Just wait until company's realize what they are dealing with ,with the texas yahoo's like rick perry and Cheap ignorant hayseed yahoo labor.

You get what you pay for.

Texas on the Brink: We Can Do Better

Is it better in California, Illinois, New York, and Michigan where they believe that Taxes solve all ills? Compare Houston to Detroit. Unless you are a Detroit City Council Member or a direct beneficiary, Americans are going to choose Houston.

JosefB is not even an American, has never visited America and has no familiarity of anything to do with the USA. If you ask him to describe the view from his window he'll say, "I can see the Kreml...er apple trees, yeah apple tree and purple mountains". He's from Eastern Europe and longs for the days when Stalin ruled and oppressed and killed.
 
I'm sure it's happened. Companies move all the time for all kinds of reasons.[/B]
Go research it and let us know what you find.

What a stupid fucking rabbit.
Companies are not moving to Texas for taxes and oil and gas. They are moving to Texas because companies move for all kinds of reasons.

And when companies move out of Texas, it is not because they can't find any educated workers.

They are moving out of Texas because companies move for all kinds of reasons.

The rabid rabbit says so. Companies just like to spend big bucks to move their operations just because they can.

No reason. Rabbit says so.

If this doesn't prove that [MENTION=35352]zeke[/MENTION] is one of the most illiterate, dumbest motherfuckers on USMB, then nothing will.

I highlighted above what Rabbi actually said in blue, then highlighted Zeke's really ignorant, fucked up interpretation in red.

Rabbi clearly said companies move "for all kinds of reasons" and dumb-ass, high school drop-out, government dependent parasite Zeke interprets that as "for NO reason". No wonder this loser can't hold a job.

How humiliating for Zeke. Everything is highlighted above and indisputable. And he doesn't have the humility to just say "my mistake". Typical liberal...

Zeke has a million reasons why: you're wrong, it doesn't matter, it doesn't count, you do it too, it was Bush's fault.
It's what makes him and most of the other libs here dishonest posters not really worth engaging except for the entertainment value of seeing just how stupid some people are.
 
Just remember the Republican Mantra.

"I've got mine, Fuck You!"

And then wonder why you keep losing elections.

Just remember the Dumbocrat Mantra:

"I've got mine, but Fuck You, I want more - which is why I'm going to implement policy giving me control and ensuring poverty among the masses".

And then you wonder Joe why conservatives have dominated the political landscape nationwide... (more conservative governors, more conservative mayors, more conservative judges, control of the House, gained seats in the Senate, etc.).

I just had to see this again. It's such a profound illustration of the liberal world. A conservative makes a concise, intelligent statement and the liberal makes up their own absurd, skewed, asinine interpretation of it, then declares that as "fact" :eusa_doh:

You take care of yourself,and I'll take care of myself. Which is how it should be.

Awesome. And as long as you pay your fair share of taxes to maintain a society where you can earn that, Im all for it.

Sorry, guy, "You didn't build that" as a wise man once said.

Guy, your movement is a zombie animated by racism.

Fact is, nationally, you haven't cleared 50% of the vote in a fair election since 1988.

So you can win some backwater senate seat in a state drawn like a square.

Big Whoop.

Winning where people actually live, that's a challenge.

Have no fear Mr. Stalin...I hide every dime I can and pay as little as legally possible to keep the likes of you from getting your dirty commie hands on it. And I refrain from cashing in options when a dem is in office because of the ridiculous capital gains tax. Which has a double effect. One it hurts the economy while obammy is in office. And two,when I wait for a Conservative,I make more money and I spend it making the economy better and in doing so Conservatives look good....It's a win,win!!
And if I didnt make it? Why do I reap the rewards?
 
I have posted volumes of indisputable data for prosperity - from tax rates, to energy policies, to labor laws, and more. At the same time, we have seen the liberal blueprint for poverty (basically everything put forward by Obama, Pelosi, and Reid). Well, here is yet another example of conservative policy creating prosperity even in the Obama failed economy...

Texas is getting under some people’s skin. Its population is growing. Its people are becoming more prosperous. It is creating both billionaires and employing more minimum-wage workers than any other state. Its energy sector has thrived—year-over-year drilling has doubled so far in 2014, with 10,000 new wells drilled just since January. Its technology corridor now extends for hundreds of miles along I-35.

Texas is the hottest state economy this side of North Dakota.

But some still refuse to acknowledge the Texas Miracle. The recovery benefits only the rich, they say. Pro-business means pro-big-business. Job growth has merely kept pace with population growth.

But that’s just it. People are moving to Texas, and it certainly is not for the weather. Its population has grown more than 5% just since 2010—a rate exceeded only by North Dakota, another oil-boom state, and the rapidly gentrifying District of Columbia. California, by contrast, lost congressional seats for the first time in state history after the 2010 census.

Texas goes light on regulation, charges no state income tax, reduces barriers to entry and creates a dynamic business climate. California charges high taxes, imposes significant regulations, makes it hard to start a new business and has billions of dollars in debt for pensions owed to retired public employees.

So it should come as no surprise Texas’ business climate is rated in the top 5; California’s is in the bottom 10. Texas has had four times the job growth of California over the last 20 years. Its unemployment is about 50% below California’s and its incomes are growing at a faster pace than California’s.

Texas Is Booming With New Jobs and 'Dirt Cheap' Energy

The rich states, California, New York, etc...are paying Texas' tax bill.

And the people of Texas are paying the price for conservative values with low wages and no healthcare.

Slavery means 100% employment.
 
In addition to having the highest rate of people without health insurance in the nation, Texas also has the largest number of children without health insurance and the highest rate of poor adults without health insurance, according to 2012 American Community Survey estimates released by the U.S. Census Bureau.

More than 852,000 Texas children lacked health insurance in 2012.

Texas also had the highest rate of adults making below 138 percent of the federal poverty threshold who lack insurance, at 55 percent.

California is bankrupt.
New York is bankrupt.
How are they "rich"??
 
The real blueprint for prosperity.....

The business journal Bloomberg Businessweek points out that the country of Denmark has a minimum pay rate of the equivalent of about $20 an hour, but its business climate is sufficiently healthy for the World Bank to ranked it as the easiest place in Europe to do business in 2011, 2012, and 2013. Denmark is also "among the leading countries in income equality and national happiness." Denmark also had a lower unemployment rate (6.8%) and higher labor participation rate (64.4%) than the United States (7.4%, 63.6% as of September 2013) where the minimum wage is far lower ($7.25).

I wont ask for proof because you dont have any.
But if that's the case and Texas is a hell hole why are busionesses moving there in droves and out of California and Illinois with their wonderful socialist systems?

California is the largest economy in the country with a balanced budget thanks to a new Democratic governor.

And New York is not bankrupt.

Because of low taxes and low wages.

From 1941 to the 1960's we had high taxes on the rich and high wages. The taxes were invested in education and infrastructure and the high wages created consumer demand. Now we have low taxes for the rich and low wages. What is the result? 23% of total income goes to the top 1%. 70% of our economy is consumer demand. Too much money in too few hands starves the economy of demand. Stagnation is the result.

Raise the minimum wage and tax capital gains as income.

Texas Again Has Highest Uninsured Rate in Nation | The Texas Tribune

So businesses are moving to Texas and providing employment and benefits and your solution is to raise taxes and wages to prevent that.
Got it.
