You don’t know much about Texas do you? Texans have a different mentality. The Texas depression of the 80’s when oil hit 16 bucks a barrel was an interesting study of the Texas mindset. Texans hibernated during the dry spell. Some even got down to their last million. (running joke) Retail stores became museums.
The State survived and so did the people. Then things started to turn around.
Now we pay the same for gas that the rest of the country does, but the drought is driving food prices thru the roof.
I only buy local or united states grown products so that doesn’t help.
The point is that Texans learned from the 80’s oil disaster to make plans for rainy days.
Perry has done a great job in his stewardship of Texas.
I have no doubt that he will do the same for America.
Ask yourself do you want a Captain of a ship that has hit raging seas that says keep all of the sails at full mast.
Or a Captain that says lower the sails, batten down the hatches and start bailing.
My family was in Texas before Texas was a Country, or a State.
We were part of the spanish land grant immigration.
So I KNOW Texas.
also know Rick Perry is big government, big spending, one-world, open border, slick politician.
