rofl if u threw out Texas, California and Florida, the US would be a third world nation
GDP would prob rank right up there with Luxembourg.
*smiles*
It was a nice job by whoever did this though. It did capture a lot about what Texas is to us Texans, and some of those facts are pretty amazing. Like half of the new jobs in the US in the last year were created in Texas. I was amazed it was that much. But given the last year, it might also be as much of a factor of how few jobs in the last yr were created in the US period.
I didnt realize that Houston, Dallas and San Antonio were all in the top 10 US cities in size. I really didnt think San Antonio was anywhere close to that.
We do seem to have been shielded from the worst part of this US recession. At least so far anyways.
