Yeah. Hate to burst your bubble but someone has to. In Kansas, lawmakers lose patience with governor's tax cuts https://www.yahoo.com/news/kansas-lawmakers-lose-patience-governors-tax-cuts-055057812.html It's a great read. And... Edited by Coast2coast, Apr 20 2016, 03:01 AM.

Actually as the saying goes. "Changing planes at DFW doesn't make you a Texan. " and as we say locally..."It don't matter if you're goin to heaven or hell....you gotta change planes in Dallas." |

A bunch of decades ago I drove through Texas. A Bobtail. I don't think we ever drove below 75, probably faster. Took two weeks. Edited by Coast2coast, Apr 20 2016, 05:58 AM.

Texas Speed Limits 25: School Zones. Don't even THINK about 26 75: Rural Roads. Just put your tires in the ruts, set the cruise control and take a nap. 85: Out of staters..just do the best you can. 95: Be sure to wave at the trooper when he wags his finger at you. 100: You might be pushin your luck a bit. |

Oh noes! Leftist politicians are furious because the Kansas government is letting people keep more of their income! Film at 11!!!!! Again the - employment rate is 3.9% - more then a full point behind the national average - which is the only metric the government is using today to measure the economy, so its a valid comparison. Kansas is doing fine - you are not. Edited by estonianman, Apr 20 2016, 09:09 AM.

Kansas is in trouble. They slashed their own throats with their irresponsible tax cuts. You like to ignore information, don't you? |

xxxx it. Let's just split up into five regional states and reorganize the whole damn thing. Change is good. The only thing keeping us together is pride anyway. |

Well, Texas was supposed to be 5 States I believe anyway right....so, we give 2 to the Hispanic Texans that have been living there for centuries anyway. The rest can go to white Texans. |
