Come on over, friend. Texas is where it’s at!!! Dallas, Houston, Austin, San Antonio, Amarillo, etc. are all doing very well compared to the rest of the USA. Yes, it’s hot and sticky in the summers, but free enterprise and private business are alive and thriving in the Lone Star state. Bring your talent, your skill, your hard work and help make us stronger every day!!!

In Texas, Democrats and Republicans in the state legislature were looking at doing some of the same things California did with the online internet sales tax crap and wanting to mix it up with Amazon, probably due to Wal-Mart and Target and other retailers lobbying them. Amazon closed a large warehouse in Texas over the issue. There is a lot going on right now. Wal-Mart, Target, and others are threatened, and they dumping a lot of lobbying money into this.

Friend, what you say may very well be true, but keep this in mind. Walmart and Target are giants in Texas and have great political sway and economic flexibility. And....on a small sidebar, worth taking note of, two of the largest California burger joints. Carl Jr’s & In and Out burgers are rooting and growing all over Texas!!! You cannot believe the pain in my heart to see California a shadow of the former great and leading state of the fabulous 50’s & 60’s, Beach Boys & hot rods & dragsters and custom rods, the cutting edge of the USA. Shucks even the Hollywood pictures are now filmed in Canada!!! Liberalism is truly a human cancer!!!
