Relying on funding from people who don’t even live in Texas is not any better.

If you like illegal immigrant labor you don’t get to call yourself a conservative

That's all good and fine but again, uniformed voters would have no idea that they are about to vote for "Bob O'Rourke".

People relocate from the liberal hellholes they created to Texas, and yet they want to turn Texas into a liberal hellhole when they get there. It's exactly like the ethnic neighborhoods you see in big cities. I flee my home country because it's a shithole but I turn the place I move into the same shithole. The other aspect to Texas is illegal immigration. The Dems long term strategy is to get as many anchor babies born in Texas, if the parents can manage to vote illegally great, but the kids will be voters and they know they can rid the kids off any pesky lingering religion, morals, or work ethic they might have by putting them through public school.

California would cost significantly more even if you slashed taxes and regulations. Look at the bay area. It's land-locked and built out.

The cost of land, homes, construction, and labor are all lower. It's what California was many years ago. I realize that taxes and regulations tend to creep up to unreasonable levels, but it's silly to think that California could realistically prevent a lot of these companies from relocating.

California does offer tremendous incentives anyway, so the marginal tax rates are less relevant. The key is that everything else costs less in Texas. For now.

I don't think they should have to go by anything. But I do find it entertaining on both sides. "Beto" is just more funny to me.

Basic color theory says that

Red states turning purple = side effect of Blue wave.

True especially if they vote Democrat. In this environment and what is happening to the Democrat Party you'd have to be a masochist to vote for them on top of being an idiot

would you rather the TV stations and newspapers around the state report the reality? Cruz is going to crush this idiot, who would read or watch that?



I agree but it will be closer than people think. Republicans can't get cocky

Wrong.

You don't get to define conservative as just anything you believe. Conservatives may not publically state they like illegal labor, but they sure do hire a lot of them! They're just good for business.

Which also means you fricks get to march us closer and closer to socialism and higher taxes for those of us that pay them. Sweet deal.

That's almost a direct quote from one of the CEOs of a company that relocated to Texas.

Do you want a statistic or something?

And where are your facts?
