Sept 20, 2011: Texas' Personal Income Growth Over the Last 5 Years Was 66% Faster than US
Rick Perry:
FIRST: "Don't spend all the money!"
SECOND: "Have a fair and predictable tax and regulatory policy!"
THIRD: "Have a legal system that doesn't allow for over suing and make loser pay!"
August 29, 2011 Andy Ferguson on Rick Perry The Texas Miracle that Perry embraces and Democrats say they loathe would make a presidential contest between the governor and President Obama more interesting than these things usually are. Voters could at last confront the tradeoff theyve been trying to avoid since the Great Society, maybe since the New Deal. On the one hand, we might have job-generating economic growth with all its necessary disruptions and uncertainties and stark inequalities of income and living standards; on the other, free health insurance, generous labor guarantees, greater income equality, a pristinely regulated natural environment, high unemployment, and declining national wealth.
A majority of American voters may reject the first for the second, as voters have in Europe for half a century. At least in Perry vs. Obama, the choice would be clear. We can be France or we can be Texas. ..
This is WILD! Texas Debt Clock
First I felt of the decline was 3 weeks ago, when I tried to refinance my home in San Antonio and found the appraisal had dropped in value 10% since I bought less than 5 years ago. Guess I’ll wait awhile, things are bound to come back.

Last year the news reported that people moving to Austin was adding about 500 cars per week. Believe me, the traffic here is awful. Just yesterday, we saw a moving tractor trailer rig with Florida plates following a car with Florida plates. There are cars here from every state, including Hawaii. Must have loved that car to have it transported here.
Thank you President-Elect Rick Perry!
