Ten-Gallon Economy
Author: Pia M. Orrenius
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 1137530170
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 311
Book Description
Texas' economic growth has consistently outpaced that of the United States as a whole over the past quarter century. What accounts for the state's economic success? And does it come at a price to be paid in the future? Ten-Gallon Economy features new research on regional economic growth and some surprising findings on Texas' unique tax and banking institutions, booming energy and export sectors, vibrant labor market, expanding demographics and human capital, and growing border economy. Texas has a dynamic economy, large yet flexible, but it is still subject to the booms and busts of the energy sector, which exercises an outsized influence. Taxes are low but regressive relative to national benchmarks, which fuels growth but can inhibit investment in education and health. Meanwhile, Texas, as one of only five minority-majority states, is poised to reap a big demographic dividend if it invests wisely in the coming generation of mostly Latino workers. Taken together, the chapters in this volume provide unique insight into the economy of the nation's second-largest state, laying out some of the choices facing policymakers charged with safeguarding the Texas growth premium for future generations.

The Texas Triangle
Author: Henry Cisneros
Publisher: Texas A&M University Press
ISBN: 1648430112
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 279
Book Description
This important new study examines the intricately linked phenomena of interwoven population growth, economic power, quality education, business leadership, and fiscal significance as exemplified in the “Texas Triangle,” a network of metropolitan complexes that are reshaping the destiny of Texas and adding a strong pinnacle in the global system of economic mega-centers. The Texas Triangle consists of three metropolitan complexes: Dallas–Fort Worth at the northern tip, Houston-Galveston at the southeastern point, and Austin–San Antonio at the southwestern edge. It consists of four US Census–designated metropolitan statistical areas and includes 35 urban counties that comprise those areas. The Texas Triangle soon will include four of the ten most populous cities in the United States. Together these metro areas represent the fifteenth largest economy in the world. The authors describe the trajectories of each of the Texas Triangle metros in which they live and work and integrate them into a larger dynamic of functioning cohesion and effective collaboration. The Texas Triangle offers community leaders, elected officials, policy makers, and others a more nuanced understanding of an important moment in America’s continuing urban development. With broader perspectives for how community-building advances the public interest, this book lays important foundations for matching the path of economic prosperity to an informed sense of what is possible.

Pages : 95
Book Description
Texas Tomorrow presents a blueprint for growing the Texas economy resulting in a higher quality of life for its citizens. It promotes innovative and creative ideas to prioritize state spending, stabilizing the states taxing and regulatory programs, incentivizing the job creators and calls for true public school reform. The blueprint also shows us that there are alternatives to higher taxes and deeper spending cuts that rob our citizens of their ability to live, work and prosper. And finally it calls for the legislature to take bold steps to rein in spending, encourage economic development and for it to take a real leadership role as Texas transforms itself into a 21st century state.
