usedtobe Posted June 2, 2014 Report Share Posted June 2, 2014 In texas 25 % of its residents are uninsured. It ranks very low in education when compared to other states and it has a high amount of unskilled labor jobs (minimum wage). Texas has the largest amount of people living in poverty. Kudos to Rick Perry. Why are YOU still here? Leave - go - get the h'll out! You claim to be an RN; a talent and craft that is in high demand all around the country. Go some place that you might be happy and well adjusted - that certainly isn't Southeast Texas. Leave and make yourself, as well a great number of Texans, very happy. Try the Dakotas: big oil boom going on there. Surely they could use one more RN. thetragichippy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetragichippy Posted June 2, 2014 Report Share Posted June 2, 2014 10. Texas > Debt per capita: $1,513 (5th lowest) > Budget deficit: 20.4% (7th largest) > Unemployment: 6.8% (tied-17th lowest) > Median household income: $50,740 (24th highest) > Pct. below poverty line: 17.9% (tied-11th highest) Texas’ GDP rose by 4.8% last year, the second-largest increase in the country, behind only North Dakota. Part of this growth came from the state’s robust energy sector. While Texas is the nation’s largest energy producer in the country by a wide margin, it also has a more balanced economy than other major oil and gas-producing states. The state exported more than $10,000 per capita in goods last year, the third most in the nation. Even with its relatively large economy — the state is in the top 15 for GDP per capita — Texas collected less revenue per resident than any other state. Texas also spent less per capita than most states, particularly on public welfare. The state has a perfect credit rating from both Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s, and had just $1,513 per capita in debt in fiscal 2011. Two negatives stand out for the state: Texas had the lowest rate of adults with a high school diploma, as well as the highest percentage of residents without health insurance coverage. I wonder if the two negatives have anything to do with border control?
