Really, Yankees and Californians, Texas is even worse than reported by Time.
True, the weather is awful, but so is everything else. The welfare system here is atrocious and it is a right-to-work state. There are no income taxes, so social services are sadly deficient. They actually expect immigrants to earn their own living. And don’t get me started on how the state refuses to honor gay rights and abortion rights. There’s church on every corner, and many Texans still say “Bless you!” when you sneeze and “Merry Christmas” during the winter holidays. Most Texans are too stupid to understand that free enterprise is a horrible economic system, and they voted against Obama in 2008 and 2012.
Texas is really horrible, Yankees and Californians. Please stay away for your own good. Don’t even visit, much less consider moving here.

Usually I would ignore an asinine comment like this but I am getting so fed up with some people spouting this garbage. I am a YANKEE, born and bred in Rhode Island. If you asked my Father what nationality he was he would just say he was a Yankee. When you make fool comments you insult the integrity of my Father, a life long Republican. My Father loved political discussions and always supported the conservative view. He once said he would vote for a Democrat but he could never find one worth voting for.
My Father was the youngest of six children and was 12 when his Father died. He enlisted in the Army at 17 and spent 4 years fighting the Germans in WWII. Upon his return he and my Mother married and were together until his death at the age of 74. He was pro life, pro marriage, and a strict Baptist. He didn’t say “Bless you”. He said “God Bless you”.
Texas would have been privileged to have such a man.
I moved to Texas 2 years ago and everything I hold dear I learned from my Father. I don’t care if you don’t want this Yankee here because I am staying.
Gosh, I really wish EVERYONE, that means Texans too, to stay away from California. My family has lived here and farmed since the 1870s and hate having to host freeloaders.
We know we have it great ...but just leave us alone!!!
That’s all true, and you didn’t even mention the Messicans.
Thats right.... no one from up north or California would want to live here. Our food is terrible, our women are ugly, and we ran out of beer years ago.... I think they would be happier where they are.
