I was born in TX, moved to LA for a few years, and then moved back to TX for family reasons. I can't wait to not live in TX again. As the article suggests, the government will never represent me in this state, and the things they are doing are reprehensible to me. However, I have a few obligations preventing me from just picking up for something more fitting. The first is lack of firm decision on where to land. Every place will have pros/cons. I hate hate hate moving, so the pros must significantly outweigh the cons to make moving across country (let's face it that moving out of texas is equal to across the country in sheer miles).
