Lizzie, Still the amusing but confused one, I see. If US schools suck,(on which we agree), why are all these foreigners coming here to attend our schools?? Could it be that their schools are worse, which would negate your argument.?? The tech companies have moved, and are moving, to Texas to get away from the liberal elements like you, so that their businesses have, at least, an even chance of surviving. It has been evident that these companies that have been here for any length of time, are benefiting from the move. Major companies in other fields are also moving here. One with which I was once involved (worked with them, not for them) is the J.C.Penney Co. They already owned a 19 story building on 6th Ave., so they didn't move to Dallas for the land. Their location near Plano has real estate almost as expensive as that in New York, so why did they move here?? From what I was told be old friends in management, it was to get away from the chaos being caused by wholesale immigration, to the point that English is no longer the prominent language in Manhattan. He also said, that the New York City area was no place to raise childern, or in his case, grandchildren. If the West and North East areas were to go under, those with the means would move to places like Texas, and just add to the already healthy business atmosphere in this state. I might add, that all businesses consider the open shop concept of Texas to be beneficial to their respective firms. ~H~
