Wtf is happening to texas?“While you, your company, employees, and diverse fans face authoritarian, anti-business, and culture war attacks from extremists in Florida, we in Fort Bend are more ready to welcome the Disney family with thousands of good paying jobs and billions of dollars of investments,” Fort Bend County Judge KP George wrote.

I’m just going to skip over all the superfluous stuff and simply ask - what is a member of the judiciary doing offering incentives that only the legislative branch could legally offer (with a majority vote)?
Also, there are many mentions of “children’s causes” in his Bio. That’s normally a good thing, but when it includes defending a company who supports transgendering minors, you’re looking at a Pedo.

No idea, but it did demonstrate how dependent the average independence spouting texan was on government, how poorly the homes are built with PVC and no fireplace, no gen sets, etc.
That's kind of fucked up you'd disgrace a flag people fought under like that.

Liberals moving for the economy and less bs to ruin it just like Montana, Idaho, Arizona, Tennessee, Arkansas where ever else was decent.
Most people's houses have fireplaces here unless they don't want one when building. Lots have generators because of hurricanes. The PVC only really freezes where it's exposed going in the house when dummies don't insulated it. It's rare for one to freeze inside here. Most new houses are Pex and it isn't an issue.
Also that big outage is a freak thing I don't think it's ever happened in my life till then. So there's no reason to build to a Wisconsin or wherever code when we don't see those temps almost ever.

In Texas, the elected head of the county's political administration is called the County Judge. They are head of the Commissioners Court. Politicians all, they are not jurists, except wikipedia says that in some small counties they serve as such.
By small I guess the mean less populated. I'd wager that many of our less populated counties are larger than Rhode Island.
It definitely did not do any of that.
Government dependents are everywhere, they're generational leeches on the system. Those were still the people that needed the help.
I'm still interested in discussing the cons of the Texas power grid. Always looking for good information from out of state.
I’m not talking dependent as in cashing a check.
If the gov power goes tits up and your world is rocked, youre dependent gov in a major way.
Lots of those homes popped pipes and folks got pretty cold, every place I’ve owned could go a long time without “utilities” dependence, current one could go indefinitely
They popped pipes that weren't insulated enough outside mostly. Retards don't wrap them and they bust. My family that runs plumbing companies talked all about it.
You're arguing for the sake of arguing it was freak weather. It's not the norm. Your state builds for it obviously because it happens, it doesn't here normally so we build for what does happen a decent amount.
Wrapping a PVC pipe is a fat man who has a pocket full of aspirin, vs losing weight.
Wrap is good, but proper routing, center of house outwards, and proper materials like pex are way better.
That's not code here, should I explain it again? We don't build for freak once or twice every however many years weather. It's real simple to understand you just want to feel like your right and won something no one but you really cares about.
If you live where thats the weather normal code is to that, when 110 summer and a long sleeve shirt maybe on Christmas is normal you build for that.
Edit-Added "that's the" because words

So the gov said don’t worry about it and independent Texans trusted gov.
Using shit PVC and putting zero thought into routing, not having backups like a fireplace at least, that’s just being cheap and lazy as a builder.
I could give a shit about code, and I trust gov as much as, well there’s not much going trust less
So you don't know anything about the situation just like most people who argue online. Noted.So the gov said don’t worry about it and independent Texans trusted gov.
I could give a shit about code, and I trust gov as much as, well there’s not much going trust less
I only said anything because yalls argument was so stupid.
Uhh negative
I’ve had to go through and re plumb a house before because cheap builders be cheap, I lived somewhere much more demanding wx wise than TX, but still lazy cheap building is lazy cheap.
And having pipes blow and being cold because your government power went out is as dependent as section 8
If my power went out right now, my place just goes to battery, check my victron app and I’ll be energy surplus, got propane, Swedish alcohol stoves, and tons of diesel plus water maker, I’d lose AC cooling unless I spin up the diesel, but that’s about it
Or Willie Nelson writing the soundtrack to Broke back Mountain. I wonder what inspired that Beto supporting, dirty old hippy.
So you still don't know anything about here, but you know everything....alright.
this is about as stupid as everyone bitching about Ukraine and Russia but don't know shit lol
You're a know it all old man, and you incessantly argue over stupid shit like a child we get it.
It’s shitty building, PVC sucks, it sucks in the sun, it sucks in the cold, it fucking sucks, sucks in Texas, sucks in Alaska, it still sucks.
And having no other means to heat, get water, cook food, without gov “utilities” is being dependent regardless of location.
I’d also wager I’m younger than you, just not as dependent on the state.
If you actually knew what you were talking about you'd know it's inches of exposed pvc, it last forever normally because it's not enough to matter.
Lots of people are self sufficient, some don't have the means. You can't run a generator in an apartment.
You want to feel superior without knowing what's going on with everything. It makes you feel good like every other twat online.
We get it man you aren't happy with something so you want to feel big here. It's okay.
I thought you were alright before, but your really acting like a cunt now lol.
"Boohoo I hate Texas, here's my chance to feel superior. Every single person in the US besides those dumb Texans are prepared for everything and anything 100% of the time."

I could care less, I just think it’s funny when the muh independence TX curls up and almost dies when gov power goes out.
Also if you look at PVC the wrong way the shit breaks.
I don’t hate TX, shit there are places I wouldn’t mind building a place on, but as a state it runs it’s mouth waaay too much and acts too little where it counts.
"I could care less" means you care FYI. You're looking for couldn't, and your constant arguing shows you care about wanting to feel right. If you didn't care you wouldn't flap your digital cock holster.
You're still going infact. Typical "got to have the last word know it all" mad old man. I'm just having fun because I know you're all butt hurt....you keep replying and I'm living rent free in your head and enjoying it.
I'm only doing it to annoy you at this point because you're acting like a twat.
You're so out of the loop you don't even know most houses are phasing out PVC, and it's because pex is easier to run mostly. Not because pvc breaks every time the wind blows. You'd also know most of the exposed shit on houses is brass and copper that still has to be insulated, but you're the expert on everything.
You didn't post a zinger, you don't even know how a mic drop works but you know everything else. Lol
P.s. I can explain sarcasm if the gif confuses you, and after that I'll show you how to work the DVR.
(This is when you use a mic drop)
Edit- funny part is the mic drop would go with what I posted before it ragging on you, so you inadvertently mic dropped yourself and don't realize it, good job.
Night night baby girl.

I can't belive that asshole is still here.

How 3rd world
Being on gov water is something I’d never do, first house was on that shit, noooope
Got lots of water onboard tanks, plus water maker, filters and parts on hand, last house had a good well, gov water sucks balls
Lol, what’s the bad answer, that I said don’t trust the gov when building a house in Texas
You have to poop outside and make water by warming snow? That’s taking the full cock of gov and asking it to spit in your mouth
Lol.
Main thing is that judge needs recalled and thrown out of Texas

You don’t even grasp that your replies aren’t making you look any smarter. It’s just a very sad attempt to get the last word, and I don’t sleep much.
You’ll be my entertainment tonight

You’re trolling? You need to troll harder dude
That’s the whole point, but ol genius over here wants to play retard fuck fuck games, he’s got the retard part down and we are teaching him the rest as we go.
Now I’ll sarcastically post this making fun of you, but also teaching you how it’s used.
When you’ve posted this being serious, you’ve already lost. A proper post would infer this.
Your attempts are just sad at this point, and further proving I’m living rent free in your head.
If you were really happy this wouldn’t have been a thought in your mind you’d read it and move on, but that need to feel superior strikes again.

Damn that’s rich coming from the state of Georgia….can you guys even election bro?
What grade did you leave school? If you graduated you shouldn’t have your reading comprehension is shit lol. It’s “my” supposed living situation now? I’m talking about people who had issues, I didn’t have any. You’re trying to twist shit because your compelled to reply and have nothing.
Probably a few higher than you did, had my college degree at the same age you had your high school diploma.
I just don’t have too much of a fuck typing on my phone
oh excuse me then, You must know all about every situation here because of some papers on the wall. How dare I...
Yes your phones the problem.
You're normally mostly alright, but you're sure a twat tonight.
I don’t know every situation, but running PVC pipes and dependence on gov utilities isn’t a wise move
If PVC is such shit then why do so many places use it and not have problems unless some retard causes one?I don’t know every situation, but running PVC pipes and dependence on gov utilities isn’t a wise move
You act like most of the country isnt on a power grid. Lots of people have generators for when shit goes down but if someone doesn't have a spot outside to run one, or can't afford it that doesn't make them stupid necessarily. There's times here you can't find a generator because they all sold out everywhere, so obviously people are using them. You have this Texas sucks and everyone's retarded hard on and can't see that not everyone where you live is 100% self sufficient either. Very few places would that be the case.
But you saw your chance and shot your mouth off, and then stuck by it like a moron. It's all opinions there's no fact to what you're saying.
As bad as this article is let me share some insight into Texas politics. Other Texans should remember when Perry was governor and the congress was out of session (Texas is only in session every other year) he started traveling out of state to lure other businesses to Texas and in the beginning I thought it sounded good to bring in some additional revenue/jobs to the state etc.“While you, your company, employees, and diverse fans face authoritarian, anti-business, and culture war attacks from extremists in Florida, we in Fort Bend are more ready to welcome the Disney family with thousands of good paying jobs and billions of dollars of investments,” Fort Bend County Judge KP George wrote.
Disney in Texas? Judge invites company to move to our state amid DeSantis feud

Why am I no longer surprised. And it's not even Austin this time.
Well very quickly Perry was spitting out press releases that he was primarily visiting California to lure Cali businesses to Texas. Those press releases usually mentioned he was working with you guessed it…The Chamber of Commerce. Not kidding you he probably racked up a million miles flying back and forth to California every month it seemed like. Even the California governor was trolling Perry saying he was a stalker and to leave them alone. It worked for the most part as a lot of Texans believe Perry started this whole wave of Californians moving to Texas and it hasn’t stopped with Abbott either.
Reason I wrote all that is because I can guarantee you that when Perry read that Fort Bend County Judge KP George invited Disney to Fort Bend county I know what Perry did next. He immediately called Abbott and said:
“Greg I know all those Disney folks in California and we are not going to get beat to the punch by some dummy Democrat. Here’s the number to Cali Disney so call and make them a grand bargain. You see Greg, Disney will ask for 500 million in tax abatements plus other incentives. We are smarter than those dummy democrats because they will hit Disney low and only offer them 450 million in tax abatements and incentives. Now to close the deal offer them 550 million in tax abatements and incentives with one request…ask them to lay low awhile on the transvestite stuff until this all blows over we don’t want to rile up the base. Heck I can even have my assistant write the press release once the deal is done. Trust me everyone will be excited they can drive to Texas Disney and not fly to Florida it will be fine. Now remember Greg, that extra 50 million in tax abatements are for them to lay low on this tranny stuff and to buy their silence for a while. That’s why we are better than those dummy democrats Greg is we know how to out negotiate them. Every time they come up with an idea we just turn around and make it our idea but we can manage it better and keep it under control. Trust me Greg that is what‘s wrong with the democrats they are way too emotional and don’t think with their head like you and I do. Now go close the deal Greg Texas is counting on you!”
In closing…we have a politician problem here not just a democrat problem.

They use it because it’s cheap
Even without a gen set, a simple fire place would make a world of difference
That’s the only argument you have, you keep repeating it and it’s not really a good one. Mine at least has substance.
There’s arguments for both and really no need to run a whole house copper I’ve asked, they use pvc because it works plenty well it doesn’t corrode, break down easily, and it can’t take some pretty decent abuse(they claim better than copper). Other than hot water applications it’s better than copper in a lot of situations. You use CPVC for hot applications it’s quieter and has better thermal insulating properties than copper it also doesn’t have metallic taste people bitch about. Pvc also stands up to more acidic water better making it last longer in those areas. copper can bust and crack too, or pop the solder joints when it freezes. Frozen is frozen either way, and it’s not like random pipes in your attic bust on average we have insulated houses also. They usually bust where the water enters the house (outside of the house) and it usually takes longer for the glue to dry than replace the problem area. Sometimes they do bust inside, but copper does sometimes too.
Pvc is also easier for your average moron to fix. Copper is claimed to last “70-80 years”, so does pvc. The old stuff was 30-50 supposedly, but the “newer” stuff is 70+.
Again, the majority of houses have fireplaces or gas heaters around here...yet you keep coming back to it. Shit ton of people have generators too. It gets cold here too, but 9-25* for days and snow isn’t the norm, 20s sometimes at night and 30-40 is normal.
Also that judge like you is a douche, but at least I don’t have to explain to him that we also have fireplaces.
