ah - “if your are a texan” was to explain, that we who live here know the details of our legislature which would not be familar to folks in say California. Our legislature meets every two years - that means not many bills are passed because most of the folks that go to Austin have to return to their homes and work under any rules they passs, so they don’t pass much. Which is my the “executive” does very little harm. I saw your “handle calex” which to mean means you no longer live in Calif. and I also saw your “I’m for Cain line” - I was trying to show not just you but all who scan the messages - Perry has little to do with our laws and how business grows here. I thank you for your well thought out response to me...it showed we can have small disagreements without being small. thanks
The legislatures spend the vast majority of the time figuring out where the money goes and fine tuning. They also spend time KILLING ideas like the TransTexas Corridor a pet project of "not conservtive" Rick Perry. This huge land grab would have destroyed hundreds of farms, ranches and small businesses all in the name of giving Texans a toll road.
It has some areas that are spectacularly beautiful (Yosemite, Lake Tahoe, other parts of the Sierras, parts of the coast) but so do a number of other states. Alaska, Hawaii, Wahington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, to name a few.
RE: When did California officially become the most beauriful state?
I hate California’s politicians and what it has become, but I’ll say this for the Golden State — other than Hawaii, No other state in this country has better weather all year round.
