If yes, where would you move to?
If no, why not?
I ask this as someone who has moved around a lot (5 states) for better working opportunities. I often hear people say they wish they could leave their current city/state/country, but money is often (understandably) an issue.
It’s very telling how many Texans are in this thread with affirmative responses.
As someone who lives in Texas, I agree. I’m not from here, military transplant, but I did set it to my “permanent state” specifically so I could vote here. If I’m being forced to live here, might as well do my part to try and change the fuckery going on.
However, the absolute second that the ink on my DD214 is dry, I will NEVER set foot in this state again. Not purposefully anyhow.
It sucks, because Austin, SATX, and my personal favey fave: Houston, are all fucking awesome cities. But they’re not worth it. Not worth it to see how much Texans with money prioritize the dehumanization of immigrants, women, and the LGBTQ+ community.
If money was no object, I’ve always been smitten with the idea of Canada. I like much cooler weather than Texas provides, and I want nation-wide socialized Healthcare. Surprisingly difficult to immigrate too from what I’ve seen on a cursory glance though.
