I've had one experience in Texas. I went on a missionary trip to Pharr, Texas (and the towns just across the border in Mexico) about twenty years ago (when I was a strong and healthy buck) and I saw lots of desperately poor people. Maybe things are different now, but I remember people just barely hanging on. Those are the only Texans I know, and I think of them now (instead of George Bush-type caricatures).
Most of the world works hard and is paid too little, even in this country, and especially on the southern border. Bush may live there, but the bluster is usually for those who can afford it, in my opinion.
