Since 1978 the oil jobs from LA have moved to Houston. In fact, almost all of the people I went to college with are now living in Texas. That's because the job market is huge compared to LA.
Many people in LA think that Texas is the greatest state in the union. Texas is the only state that can leagally suceed from the union. If you do, I'm moving there.

Yeah Louisiana screwed up royally a long time ago and Texas was watching and dug in when the opportunity presented it's self, now Texas is pretty much farming Louisiana for it's resources and Louisiana can't do anything but stand by and watch it happen as it receives whatever crumbs Texas leave's behind, Louisiana has a lot of growing up to do, first the Corporations started leaving, then the factories/industries, then the Brain Drain, Katrina happened and everybody picked up and pulled out, Now Louisiana has an opportunity to start over and do it right it's starting to look up now, Louisiana is now attracting businesses and brains from other states, Bobby Jindal has done somewhat of a good job scouting for companies with leases about to expire or looking for relocation and selling his state's land to them, i just wish he would grind a little more.
