Message: [QUOTE="freescooter, post: 5141495, member: 1023"] Not to mention a highly unpredictable power grid which is unable to access non-Texas generated power. Because, you know, Texas didn’t want to upgrade its grid to meet interstate requirements that every other state follows. The Stste agency responsible for energy predicts rolling blackouts are between 50-80% likely in winter storms and the Texas electricity supply is not sufficient to support winter demand already. Forbes just had a piece on it. Not some left wing publication. They ‘d prefer to blame solar power when there is an outage. And an increasingly inhospitable social agenda. Those kids being born now are lucky. 13% of on-gyns are planning to retire early and ob resident applications were down 15%. And another 15% of current medical ob residents plan to leave Texas after program completion. This is a major source of new doctors in any state and if they are leaving in high numbers it is a big concern. 45% of Texas counties now are considered ob deserts meaning there is no ob service. Expected to reach 60% by 2030. So in a couple of years most of those babies born in Texas will be born without their moms having any access to pre-natal care. This from a study commissioned by the state agency that oversees medical practice. Again, not some pinko human rights group. But yeah, Texas is nirvana [/QUOTE]
