Even if Texas had put all the oil into a sovereign fund, like at least one of the scandanavian states, I don't think they would come close to beating Alaska, at least not per capita. AK just has way more oil and way fewer people than TX

True I think, I was mostly thinking of lower 48. Texans should have all the quality of life of California, but instead we get toxic sludge basically everywhere and 0 public land to do fun things and see nature in, basically.

Nah, I think you got some fraction of what you deserved.

Haha well I’m from a blue state, and a socialist. I presume the you here is a royal you applying to Texans who have voted for their own oppression? Even then, better to encourage change than attack those working for it.

Ah. You said we.

'Voted'; Texan history is one of white supremacist violence extraction bigotry and horror. Fuck em. That culture that identity and its adherents need to go.

If there's a Mexican family who's lived there since it was mexico or an indigenous group that somehow survived, I wish them many hugs and some real tacos.
