“CNBC’s worst states to live in:”
“2. Texas”
They don’t tell how they arrived at this list. I say it is Pure BS!.
Where is business booming in the USA? Florida and Texas.
What state has more business friendly government? NONE.
This is so wrong it is Propaganda.
Skilled workers are still flocking to Texas despite longstanding quality of life issues. According to Census data, the state ranks No. 3 for net migration of college educated workers behind Florida and Washington. But when they arrive, they are finding limited childcare options, a stressed health care system with the highest rate of uninsured, new curbs on voting rights, and few protections against discrimination.When they mention "net migration of college educated workers behind Florida and Washington," they're really talking about college graduates going to work for Disney, Microsoft, and Exxon.
For the rest of the posters to the thread:
Sorry I didn't participate in replying, I had commitments this evening.
I agree with what everyone has said. This article was clearly meant to be liberal psyops agitprop, designed to counter the flight from blue states.
Telling is that neither California nor Florida were on either list. This tells me that this article was meant to be a proxy war between Newsom and DeSantis. Texas is the proxy for Florida, and Washington/Oregon is the proxy for California. The measures are all liberal social justice causes and radical leftist agendas.
