lol. I live in that metro and see failed, under-delievered, and cancelled projects all the time. yes, texas has some boomtowns, but that's also only one story of texas. much of texas looks a lot more like oklahoma and kansas and arkansas and missouri and new mexico, etc.
i've said this before and i'll say it again, oklahomans have such a delusional grass-is-always-greener view of the state compared to its neighbors. they think embarrassing politics are the worst in oklahoma, projects are only cancelled in oklahoma, and so much more. a lot of the same things that happen in oklahoma happen in the surrounding states. and i'm not pumping sunshine. i'm actually saying that a lot of surrounding states have their failures and frustrations. it may be incredible to hear, but i'd probably trade oklahoma's politics for what we deal with in texas where the governor won't allow local decison-making at all. the only thing i would say oklahoma is exceptional for is its devaluing and underfunding of public education.
