Toyota moving to Texas

NEW -> Contingent Buyer Assistance Program
Idaho already hates us, just like Washington/Oregon did in the 80's-90's and how Arizona/Nevada did in the 90's-00's.  Now its Texas/Idaho/Montana's turn.

?Go back to California?: Wave of newcomers fuels backlash in Boise

BOISE, Idaho ?  This city sure knows how to roll up the welcome mat ? that is, if you happen to move here from California.
Just consider last week?s mayoral election. It was the most competitive race in recent memory, a referendum on growth in the rapidly expanding capital of Idaho. And candidate Wayne Richey ran on a very simple platform: Stop the California invasion.

It's actually a bad thing for the states who take in these "California tax/social issue refugees". These expats want the same perks of a spend, spend, spend government but refuse to pay for it by hiding their wealth in a low taxation state. Eventually California refugees will begin changing local, then state political views over time, bringing blue state values to red states they fled to - only without the $$$$$$ to pay for their imported nonsense. Californians will continue ruining what was a better run state government when they arrived - Texas being a prime example. 20 years ago if anyone in Austin suggested defunding the police, they would be railroaded out of town. Today, you are warned with billboards by the police unions that "you're on your own" and the State has threatened to intervene with their troopers to re-inforce law and order.

What are these "mythic" perks of living in a high tax & spend state? 

Our education system is near the bottom... Roads and traffic are not very good... High crime, high homelessness... DMV lines 5 hours long.  The ROI on our money has to be one of the worst in the nation.

The perks of living here are the weather, geography, and world class cultural institutions... none of which our taxes actually go towards paying for.

But you were wrong about Kapernick.
Maga = covid jkjk
 
Biggest perk of CA is the weather and the food.  I?ve been to many other places where they say ?ya you can get the same Vietnamese food, same sushi, same Mexican food?... nope, it?s never as good and plentiful as it is in OC.
 
Bye bye Gulf Stream and your selfish 700 jobs...have fun in Texas and Georgia....good luck with that!! The coyotes  need the acreage back around the airport anyway...they were here first!!!

Gulfstream to leave Long Beach, taking about 700 jobs with it


The company has made significant investments in new facilities in Florida, Texas and England as well as expanding its facilities in Savannah, Georgia?where it is headquartered?Appleton, Wisconsin, and Van Nuys.

?By leveraging these newer, more modern locations and synergies across the network, we can further enhance the overall experience for our customers, whether they?re taking delivery of a new aircraft or scheduling service,? President Mark Burns said in a statement.

It just gets better and better....

Blue State, Red Tape
California is shedding residents and businesses.

Nor is the California exodus limited to desperate residents. Joe Vranich, a relocation specialist once headquartered in Irvine, California, but now settled in Pennsylvania, has been tracking business departures since 2008. Vranich says that he became ?irritated by repeated comments from California politicians, including governor Jerry Brown, that business departures . . . were not a big deal.? As he analyzed the companies, jobs, and capital fleeing the state, he realized the drain was significant. The state?s toxic business environment, Vranich estimates, caused as many as 13,000 ?disinvestment events? from 2008 to 2016.

Data-analytics software company Palantir is among the firms to announce more recently that it is leaving California. CNBC characterized its decision to relocate from Palo Alto to Denver as ?one of the first signals that a long-anticipated exodus from Silicon Valley is on the horizon.? Hewlett-Packard, a garage-band Silicon Valley original, recently announced that it would move its global headquarters to Texas, seeking ?opportunities for cost savings,? while accommodating ?team members? preferences about the future of work.?

Founding Fathers of Silicon Valley Give Up on California, Move to Texas

The company reported $7.21 billion in earnings in the fourth quarter, which now will not replenish California?s tax stockpiles. No one is being fired in this move.

The pandemic is giving companies a good reason to get out of the California gulag.

NO biggie.

Cost of operating in CA is growing at certain clip. HP is kind of fading company and one could see that they business and profitability may be growing at slower pace. makes business sense to move out and operate more economically. Free up the spot for a company that is up and coming and growing at faster pace than CA costs.

Gentrification of silicone valley long-termers (companies).
 
$7,200,000,000  in recurring taxable income is not easily replaced by the implanted microchip ap company growing its earnings at a blistering 100% pace by selling $2.00 this year up from $1.00 last year.  Arrogance and hubris will just accelerate the collapse.  Gotta recognize you have a problem and ask for help before you can recover.

California is like the food capital.
