The Truth About the Texas Job Numbers

Here's an interesting blog post I found on Twitter this morning:

There are a lot of naysayers out there trying to minimize or discredit the Texas job numbers any way they can. The author of the above post (who you can find on Twitter @politicalmath) did hours of research into the actual jobs, wages, population, etc. data and does an excellent job setting the record straight. 

Note that the author is admittedly not a fan of Rick Perry's, but rather was just seeking clarification and truth on this issue...and the data does indeed show that Texas has been experiencing amazing economic growth. 

Anyway, go read the article. Lots of statistics and graphs and stuff but still very interesting to read.
