"Perry wants us to know some other facts about his long record as Texas governor. His website is proud of his economic policies: Texans enjoy one of the lowest tax burdens in the country and one of the lowest government debt burdens per capita; he cut taxes on small businesses and delivered a historic property tax cut; he protected the states Rainy Day Fund, which has $6 billion set aside for future needs.
Here are some things that Perry never speaks about. Texas has the second-highest poverty rate among the 50 states, behind only Mississippi. It has the second-highest percentage of population without a high school diploma. Texas leads the nation in the percentage of people with no health insurance, over one quarter. It is tied with Mississippi for having the biggest percentage of workers paid at or below the minimum wage."
Listening to Perry you would think Texas is the greatest place on earth!
