Perry is a wealthy Texan whose wealth is founded on agribusiness. Just as every other wealthy Texan such a Clements and Bush2 who were governors they are ‘business conservatives’. Which means they are interested in low taxes and limited regulation which helps their bank account. They also violently resist any attempt to expel illegals or control the border. Why? Well, they really don't care about all the negative social and law enforcement consequences of the illegal invasion. They are rich and well protected from the consequences of gang violence, zoo like public schools, a d third worldization of towns and cities. These men get much richer hiring illegals using various off the books dodges. In this way they avoid all the expenses of paying workers comp, unemployment insurance and social security. They transfer these costs to the middle and working class taxpayer who does pay his or her state, local, and federal taxes and sales tax which pay for the social welfare costs of the illegals. This class of men are open in their contempt for the normal middle class American who they see as a sap and a sucker who will go on indefinitely subsidizing these plutocrats fortunes. When any question of expelling illegals or controlling the border comes up they manage to accuse those who propose this of being racists or mean heartless people. How they manage that without choking s amazing. Gov. Clements (admittedly a true bully) is famed for his public eruptions of profanity laced fury when anybody asked him a question about any state legislation requiring employers check the immigration status of employees or even eliminating English as a Second Language. These people are fake conservatives.
