Don't worry, when I buy Albert (Soon to be pronounced Albear, just like my cousin Albert... who has a brother named Clebert [pronounced Clay-bear]), There will be women, wine, and song a plenty.
It will be the new City of Mahogany!

My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

What exactly does owning a town mean in the United States (or specifically, Texas).

In other words, why would one bother?
"If there is a sin against life, it consists not so much in despairing as in hoping for another life and in eluding the implacable grandeur of this one."
Albert Camus "Noces"
Don't ask questions BG, just make some assumptions about how cool owning a town is and cough up the cash.
