Are you suggesting that more people should live in Texas? I don’t think this is the humanitarian viewpoint that you seem to think it is lol.

I'm saying that people should live in geographic place that is Texas, not necessarily in the political construct that is Texas. Because I wouldn't want to live in the latter either.

I don’t even know if I agree with that, it’s mostly desert or at the very least incredibly arid. It’ll end up being even worse than Southern California or Nevada, massive amounts of people pulling water from an aquifer too small to sustain them.

People need to live in areas that have the resources to support them.
