My guy told me he heard from someone at work that one concern was that most of those 50,000 workers were going to be brought in from out of state instead of being local hires-if true, that is not what an awful lot of people want to see happen-the idea is to get local people to work, not people from some other state-and most of us certainly don’t want more liberals infesting our states...
50,000 families are going to pull up stakes and move to a red state? Doesn’t really pass the smell test.
With that large a number, it will have to be a mix of both.
It is estimated that 66% of the current Dallas/Ft Worth area population is not from Texas. The North Texas Council of Goverments has been pushing for many years for companies to relocate to the area. They bring in their own employees with increase in pay to transfer. Their previous pay was inline with the cost of living for where they were. The higher wage allowed for more home size than what they had. The real
estate agents and home builders figured this and built mega homes for the incoming people. Texans only got the service work out of this deal. The big question is where is the water going to come from when we go back to our natural drought cycle.
