If that's what it is (and I cannot refute it), maybe we should consider tapping into other oil deposits?

Anyway, I don't know if that's what it is. Do you?

Texas' location also has poses some monstrous challenges...you se, Texas shares an enormous border with a country called "Mexico", meaning that Texas has a huge number of penniless Mexican immigrants. Yet somehow, Texas is adding jobs, and it's a place where people in my state (CT) are fleeing to.

Only a liberal would dismiss Texas' success as being based on oil, and then refuse to expand on that success elsewhere.
