Ok, so according to you, most of the people receiving welfare in NY refuse to work and abuse the system? Riiiiight. Tell that to the parents of my students in the south Bronx who work 12 hour shifts making minimum wage.
While I don't doubt it adds to the issue, I know a few folks who work in the medical field down in TX and they would disagree with this assessment as the main cause. They say the percent is about right 1/3rd don't have anything no matter where they are from.
My advice to you as a state is A.) Stop making excuses like this one B.) Decide if and what your problem is C.) Decide if you really want to fix it or not. If you don't, you don't and anyone moving there takes that under their belt.

Gee, unless I am wrong it seems there is WAY more interest in moving to Texas than NY
Time to move on, since we all know you are wrong here
lol now you're going by post count? That seems very desperate. You ever think most of those posts are from the locals? I just looked at a few threads and most of the posts. 90% from Texans. Look and see where the posts are from on the NY board. Count for me how many threads there are about moving to Texas in the last 2 days, and get back me, k thanks
Look at the population numbers. They say alot more. NY is one of the slowest gaining states in America
And THANK GOD for that! We have more than enough people thank you.
If Texas, which has more than 5 times more land area than New York State had the same population density of New York, she would have 100 million people instead of only 24 million. Who wants that?
I am GLAD New York State is growing slowly. For instance do you actually believe the quality of life would be better in Texas if she had 50 million people instead of 24 million?
