Abbott wants major Texas cities to have as little control as possible since they’re mostly majority democrat. Doubt they’re even thinking about markets solving problems.

Can confirm this works great. I wish there were more options for higher quality 20x20 box fans though. I’ve had Lasko fans that got loud after a few months, and I assume that’s a bearing going bad.
