Those numbers are about % growth, not job number growth.

Texas is #2 in percentage of job growth, but runs away with actual numbers of new jobs. "the Lone Star state added 274,200 jobs in twelve months"

I haven't read the article yet, but my guess is that all of them are Right-to-Work states.

(Now to read the article and learn the correct answer.)

Having read the article, I can say that Missouri would be on this list if we had a Republican governor. House and Senate, both Republicans, passed RTW legislation in 2013 which Democrat Governor Nixon vetoed. We’re going to work on it again in 2014.

I think the whole Northeast is lost to us. I pity any conservatives still living there.

RE :”I thought you were dissing Texas.”

I posted that Texas was #2.

That's number 2 out of 50 states where small numbers are at the top(good).

Do the math.

Number 1 in Education. Highest scores in the nation. Best schools in the country, etc. I still send my kids to Catholic School because of the discipline and religion classes. Texas???? Yieks.
