INFLATE HERE, INFLATE NOW!

The invisible hand of the marketplace is alive and well in Texas. Over the past 12 months Texas has created 245,000 jobs. That accounts for more than half of the jobs created in America during that time.
Not coincidentally, Texas has the second lowest tax burden of the 50 states. Even conservative estimates have projected a $10 billion surplus for the next biennium. Texas also leads the nation in energy production — 30% of the natural gas and 20% of oil produced in America comes from Texas.
So what can the rest of the nation learn from Texas when it comes to energy, the economy, and the environment?

What the states need to do is tell the feds we are taking control of lands within out borders and PI## OFF.

“Texas already produces more wind energy than any other state.” .... These things are a terrible eyesore. Sad to see wind farms destroying Texas’ beautiful landscape. We’d be better off with a couple more nuke-plants...small footprint, way more efficient energy producers.
And the plan is to build more in West Texas, charge each household across the state an extra $4.00/month to transport the energy to North and East Texas. I'm sure this is T. Boone's idea, which will be a money maker for him.
PROPAGANDA! All of it! Things are horrible in Texas. No one should come here for the prosperity. We are in economic shambles down here. Don’t believe anything in this article yankees. Stay at home! You wouldn’t like here anyway. All the freedom and open space, it can be overwhelming.
Actually, all the folks on both coasts should stay there. They will never like it here in Texas.
“Sad to see wind farms destroying Texas’ beautiful landscape. We’d be better off with a couple more nuke-plants.”
Totally agree.
“Don’t believe anything in this article yankees. Stay at home!”
Absolutely!
We don’t want no “wetbacks” comin’ across the RED RIVER too!
How true. First thing they would do is try to change things to be more like where they came from.
That would call for an ass-kicking.
The stupid political class of the RNC and every person who is in either the oil business or politics leaves out what this writer starts with - JOBS!! 245,000 jobs, created from oil and gas. Don’t forget the TRICKLE DOWN effect of pick up trucks sold to haul equipment to jobs and SeminTrucks sold to haul equipment to JOB sites. When was the last time EXXON mentioned that they create JOBS!! My goodness they are stupid. It would not hurt if the mentioned that milk is more expensive than gas, but it would really help if the OIL people and the RNC and Steve Schmidt w/McCain mentioned JOBS. - /rant just starting -
States with high taxes suffer.
I can't think of a concept more simple than that.
Do you happen to live near our wind farms?
Damn right!! Its hot, its ugly, and even our roses have thorns on them. Stay out!!
