Well, you have a point there.

I had not thought of it like that, but you might be on to something.

Need facts to make a decision?
Delaware was one of the original Thirteen Colonies and is known as the "First State", officially referring to the fact that it was the first to ratify the United States Constitution
Delaware is the second-smallest state in the United States, Rhode Island being the smallest.
Delaware is on a level plain, the highest elevation not even rising 450 feet above sea level. The northern part is associated with the Appalachian Piedmont and is full of hills with rolling surfaces. South of Newark and Wilmington, the state follows the Atlantic Coastal Plain with flat, sandy, and, in some parts, swampy ground.
During the American Civil War, Delaware was a slave state that remained in the Union.
Delaware has lacked air service from major carriers since 2000. On June 29, 2006, Atlantic Southeast Airline, a subsidiary of Delta Air Lines, began two-a-day flights between Atlanta's Hartsfield International to New Castle Airport
I didn't know any of this stuff before I looked it up. Everybody already knows all about Texas.

Most states are less.. politically active than Texas. That means that most states make or influence the creation of most laws.
Most states kill way fewer people than Texas, too.
So, yes, most states are better than Texas.

The best state?
that's an easy one.
Hawaii
1. It doesn't share a single border with Canada
2. It's isolated waaaaay out there in the middle of the ocean
3. It can safely be ignored (see #2)
4. Very vulnerable to attack from air or sea (see Pearl Harbour, History of)
5. Perpetual summer
6. Residents not continually reminding everyone else that they are the best
and the best reason that Hawaii is the best state?
It's not Texas
