You may have a bad lease in Denton, but Austin is still a special case
as far as treating residents like shit.  This is mainly because the city
itself has a govt which prides itself on denying basic services to people
(like roads, see US 183, _finally_) because services to taxpayers is pork and
when employed people live here, it drives prices up.  The majority
of our city council was elected by people who want to live in a 
small, cheap town of students and musicians.  If we need more tax $$,
the state can send them to us from Houston and Dallas, 'cause our lifestyle
is so valuable it deserves public support.
