Long the liberal redoubt in conservative Texas, the capital city is becoming a statewide model.


Is Austin becoming the San Francisco of Texas?

And I'm hardly the only one who thinks that way.

Austin is a leach upon Texas. It benefits from the wealth that the rest of the State generates.
Austin has always been a fucked up liberal city full of assholes.

I like some of their strip clubs, though.

Over-priced real estate, horrible traffic, overpopulated,

Liberal bias everywhere
The State Capitol and politicians are ensconced - along with the usual greed and corruption
No thanks

I'll take north Texas anytime.

I should have added that Austin has a very low crime rate and the rise in median home prices has soared, meaning I have made quite a bit of money on my house investment. Tough to get into the housing market though.

Exactly what liberal bias is there in Austin that you have a problem with?

Totally true statement. I no longer live there but still take advantage of the city on an almost daily basis.

When you arrived in 1992 it was already infested with whining, socialist, liberal want-a-be's that perceived Austin as the technologically innovative Mecca that coddled to the "strange" segment of our society that drowned their discomfort with unmentionable substances and publicly displayed anti-social behavior .... "birds of a feather flocked together" in Austin. That's why a drunkard DA was re-elected.
