They say everything in Texas is big, and that sure goes for its stature in business.
With the biggest point total in the history of our study, Texas posts a big victory as America’s Top State for Business 2010.
Texas has a projected shortfall of $10 BILLION in 2012. California, Illinois and New Jersey are the only other states with projected shortfalls over $10 million.

Texas was 70% Anglo as late as 1980. In 2020 Hispanics will outnumber Anglos. By 2040 nearly 70% of Texas population will be Hispanic.
Texas is ten years away from being another California, but Texans are too arrogant to realize it.
