Yes a true liberal elite that truly gives a damn about those the left claims they want to help. The fifth largest economy in the world should never have the social results California has generated

Are you claiming that dingy prefab "for sale" is yours?

Damn. You could

That doesn't look like much. Why is it for sale?
 
Can't answer the question so you divert to videos? I know you are newcomer (probably don't even have a proper pair of boots) but you might be surprised to learn Texas has been blue many times in it's history. I'm glad you enjoy living here and taking advantage of all the hard work families like mine put into developing this state but don't get confused and think you speak for Texans just yet. You will need a generation or two before you get that title...

but you might be surprised to learn Texas has been blue many times in it's history.

Finish the story

A different kind of Blue
 
Costs are higher in successful cities, yes, but wages are higher as well. That's capitalism. Blue cities are where the work and the money are.

yes, but wages are higher as well.

Then why was there such a need to raise the Minimum wage then?
 
I would expect an economic genius to be able to
explain why housing is doing so well in a state where people are fleeing.
Do economics not work in blue states?


It's because there isn't a big supply of housing?

Calif doesn't build a lot of NEW housing?

Also, thank rich FOREIGNERS Tex
 
LMAO... Texas was blue for over 100 years until the last 10 years... From 1874 till 1979 Texas had all democrat governors...


Why do you not know that being BLUE then is much different than being BLUE today?
 
Yes, we call those metropolitan areas or cities.. :ROFLMAO: You know, those places where all the wealth accumulates...


Tex, when Texas finally turns Blue will you believe as I do , that people moving there will slow...... down?(LOL)

LOL... And was afraid the medical costs, IN THE 70's, would wipe out everything she had earned..
 
The poor in conservative states are so poor, they can't leave. Don't kid yourself, poverty doesn't know color, ethnicity or political lean.

Never said poverty knew know color, only that poverty is most states isn't gov't generated due to the high cost of living including taxes

You cannot be talking about a TX education for most Texans know that SS and Medicare were self funded not gov't funded

The one I live on, glad I don't live in yours You have no idea what taxes you pay or their purpose, typical liberal.
 
Then why was there such a need to raise the Minimum wage then?

Because the median wages for unskilled labor are too low everywhere. They are lower in red areas than they are in blue areas, but they need to come up in both red and (most) blue areas.

Median wages are not what unskilled labor earns. Median wages are the wages found between the lowest and the highest wage. Unskilled labor typically earns the lowest of the wages, with good reason. Those with the most and rarest marketable skills can demand the highest wage.

Wages should only be determined by what the market will bear, and not be interfered with by a dictatorial government. Government only hinders business, it never helps.
