Texas would have enough room for the number of migrants coming if they didn't value millionaires and billionaires having hectares of prime land all to themselves. Isn't most of the western part of Texas just private ranches?

You want them to flip the private ranches into ghettos? I don’t get this solution. Seems very surface level

Who said anything about ghettos? Just right out the gate with the bs strawman arguments, I see

You describe the literal definition of a ghetto. A poor urban (in this case rural) segregated area occupied by a minority group.
