You guys, Chief Executive magazine, the #1 magazine for Chief Executives by Chief Executives that isn't Forbes, has studied each and every one of the states of this great union of ours to determine which one is best, for Chief Executives?
I was born in Tyler, Texas which is known for nothing other than roses, hating blacks, and was once a Democrat strong hold. I left when I was 18, moved to Austin, and have been here for 34 years. We're kind of in a bubble here as people are generally nice, the food is good, and we have a great music scene.
We also renamed our main bridge from South Austin into downtown after former Governor Ann Richards. I would like to start a petition to name the waste water clarification ponds at the Walnut Creek Water Treatment plant after Rick Perry because that where the predominance of the shit in Austin is treated.
People ask me "have you lived your whole life in Texas" and I answer "so far but by God I'm hoping to change that."
"A good state is one that actively encourages competitive business, demands low relative taxes and has a highly educated workforce.”
Right. Because a highly educated workforce grows on trees, not taxes. Best state: one that under funds education and whose workforce is educated in Massachusetts.
Plus in most rural areas elected sheriffs are the law. And easily, uh, persuaded if you know what I mean. And you aren't a real CEO if you don't.

Yes, about 2,500 years behind seems right.

Huh. I would have guessed Mexico for number one.
Hey, I don&#039;t make fun of Puwallup.

WE&#039;RE NUMBER 2! WE&#039;RE NUMBER 2! WE&#039;RE NUMBER 2!
We&#039;d be Number 1 if they considered gun laws, gubernatorial shaved heads, and general corruption.
