Then you'd have to do your business in the district of Eastern Texas, which may well be punishment enough. The major cities in the district aren't Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth, El Paso, San Antonio, and Austin. They are Beaumont, Lufkin, Marshall, Sherman, Texarkana, and Tyler. There are four US districts in Texas, and pretty much anywhere you'd want to run a major business is in one of the other three.
