And there is nothing “blue” about this. 1800 new jobs. Texans. it’s not a move like Toyota. Besides....virtually everyone moving to Texas from other states are conservatives. I track the Facebook pages of the thousands moving here. 99.9% are conservatives.

THis is great news for Texas and it’s only getting redder and redder.

Land speculators have pushed farmland up to 90k per acre.

Right next to Thrall Texas, the nations worst speed trap.
Cost me a few hundred bucks the first time through.


That's nothing. Something like 20% of Oklahoma's general revenue funds comes from Texas drivers.

Meh. Sony's phones have better cameras. And they used to be the only ones with a reasonably-sized phone too, but not anymore..

Anyone have an Android? I’m so tired of Apple and their constant request for passwords, codes, or whatever the hell they are.

Love the Android, wouldn't give you 2 cents for an iphone

TSMC (building in AZ) and Samsung (TX) are leading advanced design in the world right now.
Intel is #3 (AZ and OR)
This is good news for the USA!

Chip production wouldn’t start until the second half of 2024.

And, given their military buildup, China's threat to invade Taiwan starts to really ramp up in the first half of 2023. Hope the timing works out.

Samsung said they’re waiting for more info from Biden as they haven’t a clue as to what he will do.
