Indeed. Homes here are in able supply, and so is the land. Honestly, Missouri is going to be the next Texas if Abott isn't careful with the Democrats "fleeing" to Texas.
income tax in Texas is offset by high property tax so the "no state income tax" shit is really not that attractive when you consider that property tax in Texas makes it impossible to truly own land.
just curious, do you actually live in Texas? I see a lot of people flaunt this "no income tax" thing when they don't even live there. I live in Oklahoma but was born in Texas and have lived there multiple times throughout my life so I have seen the cost comparisons of property tax vs. income tax and at the end of the day, with salary and property ownership assessed at an average level, the come close to balancing out...
it comes down to how much property do you wanna own versus how much taxable income do you make.
I used to think people like you were stupid. But since the government can make money appear out of thin air, allocate money by sneaking it in unrelated bills, I’ve realized that the way our government does it makes it evil. I truly think there are ethical ways of doing it but this isn’t it.

Missouri has an income tax.
That's gonna be a no from me.

^^This.
My property taxes went from $3100 to $4800 over night after buying a new home.
Included are the stupid-high school taxes, which coincidentally, pay for the illegals who cross the border to get a free education on our dime.
Yikes. What kinda property and home are we talking about? That’s a lot
Texas is not the only income tax free state.
But it's true there are no states without a property tax, some have a lower property tax than others.
We all have to make sacrifices, also check out "The Law that Never Was" if you want to contest the IRS.
Sacrifices I can do, it's empowering an enemy that I'm opposed to.
Government is the enemy of Liberty, and taxation is the root cause of much of this evil.

Believe it or not, we have more blades of grass than Texas. A solid third of your population wants the rest of you dead.
I can see the appeal. Plus you are not far from many major cities (Chicago being one)
