(6,699 posts)Texas already has their economy propped up with half the military bases in the country stationed there. This is all they need....MORE welfare programs to boost their "right to work" economy.
Nonsense. If you want to put in more military bases...I suggest you go to New Mexico or Arizona....or some states where they don't already have half their economy dependent on military aid.
