.....Since the recession began in December 2007, 1.2 million net jobs have been created in Texas. Only 700,000 net jobs have been created in the other 49 states combined.........
Only North Dakota has outpaced Texas on percent job growth, thanks to jobs created by the fracking revolution.

no wonder leftists hate Texas
To include an insufferable number of immigrants from liberal states who came here because they couldn’t find work in their home state.
Thankyou....thankyouverymuch...y’all come on down!

Not exactly - true liberals hate Texas and wouldn’t come here. Some liberals I know left Texas and went to New York State and now they are happy. They couldn’t stand to live in Texas.
Those liberals you refer to end up in Austin...lol.

Whis they would have taken more liberal losers with em .....
They must not hate it that much, since they are flocking here in droves to escape their own undoing.
THAT I can understand! But, I bet you don’t drive a dinky little car 55 on the freeway, either.
Where are the Florida numbers...Gov Scott is doing one hell of a job. .....700,000 jobs created...5.8% unemployed.
He’s another good Republican manager, very much like Jeb Bush.
