10+ Reasons Texas Sucks

• horrible weather --- unbearable heat & humidity 9 out of 12 months a yr, tornadoes, hurricanes, and the most violent thunderstorms anywhere

• george w bush --- 'nuff said

• worst schools in the country --- bad parents who raise stupid kids who go to shit schools that produce horrible SAT scores

• rick perry --- secessionist, neo-confederate, horses ass

• violence --- more guns per capita than anywhere else in the US, more people in prisons, more capital punishment... more murder than in either new york or massachusetts

• welfare state --- for all the talk of rugged individualism texas gets more in tax dollars than it shells out

• weird religion --- you thought california was #1, well think again... alleluia, amen

• obesity --- all that catfish, chicken fried steak, & luby's will catch up to ya... texas is a 300 lb kid that can't walk up a flight of stairs --- ranked in top 10

• poverty --- ranked in the top 10 states for people living in poverty

• anti-union --- rabid right to work state, claims it's an economic miracle, yet all it can show is a median income below the national average in spite of vast amounts of oil & gas

• crappy jobs --- the texas economic miracle is all smoke and mirrors... the best jobs are government subsidized like the oil & gas industry, next comes government subsidized infrastructure work, and then the foreign corporations subsidized by their own governments and then resubsidized by the state of texas... everything else is just above minimum wage

• fees, fees, fees --- republicans can't say the T-word so they say "fees" instead...  count 'em and you'd be better off living in illinois

• endless driving --- at least in california there's some place worth going

• charlatans ---  "quack" is a texas cottage industry... if it's a scam then it's probably licensed here

• racist ---  just sit down and talk with the local rednecks

• cheaply made housing --- if you're rich all is well... if you aren't don't expect much much more than some dry wall, plywood, & plaster - better off just getting a trailer

• water --- great if you like the taste of chlorine & sulphur

• bad losers --- it's always someone else, usually yankees or the federal government

• quality of life --- rated one of the worst in the nation, that's why I left

• angry old white men --- texas has more of these than you can shake a stick at

• rocks, snakes, & scorpions --- almost as many as angry old white men
