The past decade has been very rough for many Americans. We suffered an economic downfall that left many without jobs. A huge part of rebuilding the economy is creating valuable jobs for Americans. The article LoneStar Strong explains how Texas has created over 700,000 new private sector jobs in the last decade while no other state has created over 100,000. California performed the poorest in the same time with over 600,000 fewer private sector jobs. This article is very interesting because we hear so much about how the unemployment in the country has risen dramatically during the recession. To know that Texas, the state we live in, is not only contributing to the unemployment problem but possibly even reducing it is very reassuring.
