It's not just the millenials - it's teacher union run public ed coupled with digital dependency - the dynamic duo. The original Calcasieu Lumber Company in Austin was downtown. Back when the sales tax rate was 5%, you'll have to figure out how long ago that was, I made a purchase for one dollar. The clerk got out his calculator and said, "That will be $1.05, sir."

Dolph Briscoe or Bill Clements era maybe? My old friend at Home Lumber Company used to say, "I liked Austin before it was weird." Good thing he's gone now. We moved out three years ago. Back the other day. Unbelievable.

Can remember back when Okla. had a 1 or 2% sales tax and Texas had none and ragged them about it. Wonder whose is higher now?
Maybe a DOGE effort will be instituted at the state level, too. But I think Texas bureaucrats are better than the DC ones.
LOL!
