Yes, but CA's tax burden is 3500 per capita vs. TX's at 2000

I was wondering where the fuzzy math came from. The average selling price in the Bay Area of a home now is over $600k with a resulting property tax bill of ~$7.5k. Mine is higher and I paid less and have owned for 15 years. So much for Prop 13 keeping the lid on!

Yes, but CA's tax burden is 3500 per capita vs. TX's at 2000, so there is a dramatic difference. Also, in TX, only larger corporations with significant net assets are taxed; trusts are not taxed at all. Whereas CA taxes anything that moves.

TX, overall, is a far better managed state. Even when Democrats run it is better managed than CA.

LOL. Why? Because Texans pay less taxes?
