I think most view this as a big deal, anyone with any level of give a frick. Not sure what average folks can do to help at this point besides cheer it on. If the situation escalates, I believe there would be whatever support is needed.
I’m talking specifically about those saying, “Texas can afford it.”
Just reminding everyone that “Texas” is actually “Texas taxpayers” and, while the large majority of us completely support spending on this fight, it’s not something Texas’ taxpayers should be fully funding alone. And there are definitely other areas that money could be spent.
Just because we have a functioning government capable of balancing a budget doesn’t mean it’s no big deal that it’s our money holding the line right now.
