I’ll bet Taos is the conservative capitol of NM.
(as is SF in CA)
The writer acts as if the oil and gas industry raped New Mexico and took everything from it.
So how many New Mexicans made money off of oil and gas? What taxes and leases were paid to the state and local jurisdictions?
How many paychecks, supplies purchased, contracts written, etc. etc.? What was the value to New Mexico for all of that work?
I’ll bet it has been Billions of $$$...
