Actually we have had problems, but the article doesn't mention them. Democrats want to raise taxes, republican governor does not.

For those who aspire to live in a high cost, high tax, big government place, our nation and the world offers plenty of options. Vermont, Canada and Venezuela all offer you the opportunity to live in the socialist, big government paradise you long for. –Senator Rubio

Texas's basic fiscal survival concepts is to sock away some savings in fat years to help cover later lean years. What a amazing arcane complex idea, too secret for most governments to follow.
Being rather miserly on spending and having some serious limitations on government activity and legislative process are biggies also. Agencies and programs are sunsetted rather than having indefinite lives. The structure and rules of the legislature make broader consensus needed to advance new legislation, and the system effectively rations the amount of legislation than can be passed. Their is a high ratio of checks and balances to power.Last edited by Lefty Scaevola; July 2, 2009, 10:13.Gaius Mucius Scaevola Sinistra

Whats bad about this? The simple fact is that we are living beyond our means at all levels, this is forcing our governments to cut services to where they should have been in the first place."The DPRK is still in a state of war with the U.S. It's called a black out." - Che explaining why orbital nightime pictures of NK show few lights.

I would like to congratulate MrFun for successfully mentioning California without going into a spittle-flecked rant about Proposition 8. Also, any bets on how long this lasts? And no fair laying a bet and then goading him...

California is just going through its usual budget wrangling due to the stupid 2/3rds law however it is made worse this year because of the recession and resulting drop in tax revenue. Texas is still hopelessly behind us in every way so just accept your second rate status and be happy everyone dislikes you.
Not to mention the Raiders too.
As for blaming the 2/3rds law, most people blame the Democrat legislators.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

Minority veto is never a good thing especially not in day to day matters and especially not when the politicians are allowed to gerrymander their own districts. Majority rule really is the only thing that works.

No one here was bashing Texas so I don't see why you had to post this knee-jerk reaction.A lot of Republicans are not racist, but a lot of racists are Republican.
