Over the twelve months through the end of May, the U.S. added 2,408,000 jobs.
15.9% (383,000) of those jobs were added in TX; a State which has only 8% of the US population.
Basically, Rick Perry’s TX is delivering twice the load it should have relative to its population size.
These numbers come at a time when Bank of America reports that the U.S. is now the number one energy producing country; surpassing even Saudi Arabia!
How? Enter Texas once again.
Back in 2008, five million barrels of crude oil were produced daily in the United States. That number cracked 8.1M barrels per day (BPD) in March of this year.
Where in the U.S. have we added 3M BPD compared to five years ago?
800K Barrels Per Day were added in North Dakota and about two million added BPD was in Texas!
Basically, 2/3 of the added production of oil in the US over the last five years, is in Rick Perry’s Texas!
There is one more thing where Texas is saving Obama’s America economically, but oops. I can’t remember it now…
