Gov. Perry Invites Limbaugh To Texas

April 13, 2009 · Filed Under Media

Rush Limbaugh made headlines again recently when he declared that he was leaving New York forever, because of the ever increasing tax rates in the state. New York now has the highest taxes in America.

Gov. Rick Perry of Texas is planning to reach out to Limbaugh and encourage him to take his act to Texas.

“He’s not unlike other people who want to go to a place that’s got low taxes and fair regulations and a balanced legal system and a skilled work force,” Perry told the Dallas Morning News. “Excellence in Broadcasting hires a lot of people. So if he wants to go somewhere where he works hard and keeps more of what he makes, Texas is the place to do that.”

As a Texas resident myself, I applaud Perry for reaching out to Limbaugh. Unlike liberal states like New York, Texas doesn’t punish businesses with and individuals with unnecessary extreme taxation.
