I hope all the liberals move to Austin,
We can then nuke it from orbit.
I spent a lot of time at schools and seminars in Austin.
The only thing I liked was watching the bats leave from under the bridge near the Marriot. It’s impressive.

Austin is not what I would call real Texas.
I liked Galveston. a working man’s town.

That does not sound right. There was a 20-40 percent markup during covid. The area experienced ridiculous fomo. No inspections, no walkthroughs, on the spot offers, all with government backed loan programs.

From the article, this sounds more like it. Ridiculous. Bunch of entitled GSs being house poor.
