And will offer a quality of life that is similar to the bottom 10 nations, especially when green energy replaces oil/gas dependency. Extreme income inequality in Texas will desrtoy people's lives there.

Texas is also home to a ton of big business, even without oil and gas, Texas produces a lot of stuff from food to software. You're crazy to think that Texas would be miserable. The facts of Texas don't support with that idea
