It is not Texas fault we are so influential in the textbook market, but it is what it is. We are a large state, and do not plan on changing that fact. We are proud of the fact that "Everything's bigger in Texas". LOL
The other states can follow behind us, or can use what California uses, or convince the textbook publishers to make revisions for them.

Well, as Uncle Ben said, "With great power, comes great responsibility"
Does Texas not feel a sense of responsibility to the rest of the country?
Do you really feel that what children in TX learn should be different from what children in MN or AK learn?
