A Comparison of Texas to California

Since putting pen to paper to share my thoughts on economic and social issues, I have hoped to replicate the intellectual honesty and dispassionate demeanor of my father, Dr. Joseph Werlin, Chairman of the University of Houston Sociology Department. Our conversations and his musings and writings have been influential throughout my life. My mother, Rosella, equally influential, was a noted journalist who highlighted the remarkable accomplishments of everyday people. It is my desire that this archive of my writings, PowerPoints, and speeches will stimulate your learning and curiosity.
