    Texas ties for 2nd in U.S. for economic freedom. That’s because we insist on low taxes (including no income tax), a fiscally conservative approach to spending & common-sense regulations that make it easier for entrepreneurs to succeed. #txlege #tcot #jobshttps://www.dallasnews.com/opinion/commentary/2018/01/05/texas-ranks-near-top-again-economic-freedom …

        Allow casinos in Texas and use that tax money to help reduce property taxes. Ever see the parking lot at Winstar? 99% Texas license plates.

        Casinos provide lots of good paying jobs as well. We need one at the racetrack in Houston, their purses are so low people are racing their horses in Louisiana where they get $$$.

        But you make up for it with expensive tolls and car registration fees.. not to mention unlawful "administration fees" on any late payments. Texas is great but don't leave out the nickel and diming tax payers

        You might want to add we also treat our educators with respect and we help provide a great insurance package to help recruit and retain high quality teachers .... Wait! I'm sorry we can't say that, strike that, Texas takes care of state employees only not it's pub ed employees.

        We also have gerrymandering that’s impressive. And public school funding so complicated nobody knows how toot works, and high maternal death rates, and no healthcare for poor children. Bless your heart.

        You need to work on property taxes, governor. They're not so low.

        Location is a major factor in that. The Houston metroplex area taxes are much higher than mine a my main residence. My house in shepherd is almost double my place in Warren.

        Prop taxes are too high in the major urban areas in TX.

        True in most cases, but why do you sign bills that clearly hamper small business and only support special interests?https://www.texastribune.org/2017/06/16/new-law-could-hinder-growth-texas-breweries-warn/ …
