Why Texas is better than California

Texas is working hard to prevent their state from becoming a socialist tax and spend quagmire like California.

[Rico]

Steers and queers.

[Blarg]

But no state income tax. 

[Blarg]

Sorry, forgot you Democrats can't afford the WSJ. Here is an exceprt.

The Texas constitution since 1993 has barred the Legislature from imposing an income tax without the approval of voters in a statewide referendum. But with progressives working hard to turn Texas into another California, voters decided to raise the bar. Proposition 4 changes the state constitution to require income-tax legislation to win two-thirds support in both legislative chambers and majority approval in a referendum. It passed with 74% of the vote.

Oh, I can afford the $2, but yeah, no thanks.

Our state is cooler. Their politicians are better. Too bad we can’t mix and match.

Blarg a good reality TV show idea would be you moving from Calif to TX.  We'll take your old Benz convertible and give it an 8 foot lift kit and take it cow tipping. Pitch it to your boss, I think it will sell.

I'm going to trust Blarg's opinion on whether this would make good reality TV. Blarg, would it?

[Blarg]

Only if it's told from the fire ants point of view.
