Another reason not to live in Texas

Come to my tenant's Mex restaurant in Silicon Valley. The Best.
Interesting that I never ate there ever.

It's the best but you haven't tried it. Right.....

Before giving raving reviews at Yelp, I at least want to have taste of food regardless if good or not. There's always something good to say.
Like Trump, can't wait for Tax Reform 2.0.

Red States would love to have even 2,000 tech workers.

In 2024, Texas had 1,271,500 employees engaged in the overall tech employment landscape, encompassing both technical workers in tech companies and tech professionals in other industries. That's 9%.
Arkansas had an estimated 59,400 tech workers, representing 4% of the state's overall economy and contributing $4.5 billion.

CA has about 2 million. About 7.7% of the work force. High tech workers in Washington comprise about 22% to the state economy.

So per capita, Texas and Washington have more tech workers than CA.

CA has the smartest and most talented tech workers. Google has its headquarters in Mountain View. Even Tesla still has employees in Silicon Valley.
To be relevant and competitive, all tech companies even Walmart have to be here.
I always thought Alamode would be better software if they were here with more talented creative workers.

I would hate to bet on that. Seattle and Austin might question that as well.

Measles outbreak is because not enough people being vaccinated (need at least 95% of Texans vaccinated.
Texas should do better in protecting its citizens.

How many illegal immigrants came vaccinated. Hmmm, none. And how many hundred thousands went thru texas. Might be more foreign diseases happening, but the biden administration was probable hiding those numbers. The biden administration did nothing to protect the population. Never look behind fernando's comments, might find the truth.

Probably a good reason to vax your young loved ones....

Why don't you stop running your mouth about Silicon Valley? My son works there and he says the arrogance factor of some of those tech workers is completely off the charts. Insufferable. I was born/raised in Calif and I know better than to run my mouth off about Calif being better than other states because people everywhere else hate us for it.

STFU

Another dumb statement. Follow the illegals. The unvaxxed are mostly religious minorities like the Amish and Mennonite communities and illegal immigrants. With the largest border with Mexico and a huge area of illegal migration, whatja expect? But California also has cases. You can bet the vast majority are illegals.
