After all, their deficits are nearly identical.

As soon as CA residents stop fleeing bankrupt CA heading to TX looking for jobs we'll admit whatever you want, deal?

I haven't seen a California plate here in Houston for quite awhile now. That trend seems to have died out.

Maybe you live in an undesirable part of town, I see them all over the place North of Houston. They're all over the place mixed in with quite a few AZ plates, I even bumped into a couple from MA yesterday in the Woodlands who fled the NE looking for a better place to raise their children. People are still flooding TX because they're looking for work and a reasonable cost of living.

Are you ignorant or just grasping at air? Seriously. Comparing the two state governments and trying to rationalize in your mind that they are the same, is like watching Margret Cho dance and think she is a trained professional. It just ain't so. Why on earth would ANY business want to do business in our state if our state economy was as bad as California's. I mean really, you really want to go there Texas wipes the floor with California acting as the mess....Clemens: World Series policy lessons | Editorials | Fort Worth, Arlington, Northeast Tarrant ...

Yet the deficits are nearly identical. Why is this, despite all the federal money our major industries receive? Typical Texan response to completely dodge my point, by the way.

Texas has $9 billion in the Rainy Day fund, how much does CA have in there?
