Liberals and democrats forget that eventually, you get what you vote for.

No, even STUPIDER states offering even BIGGER taxpayer subsidies have done this.

Unnintended consequences: Big government loses its biggest advocates due to big government. Big government good for thee, not for me.

For half a century, almost every movie and television show had dry rolling hills covered with oak, California walnut, and eucalyptus trees in the background because it was filmed in SoCal. Then, starting in the late 80s, it seemed that everything was being filmed in wet, evergreen-covered Washington State.

Why don’t they just TAX the Studios anyway, for Not Filming in California if they have an office or a “presence” in the State?

Well, as a proud native of California let me just say that these
Hollywood movie tycoon types (mainly from somewhere else)
reflect a certain unique style. They financially support politicians
who raise taxes and then take their business elsewhere because
our state taxes are too high. If only I could only afford to take MY
business elsewhere while keeping my residence in the state of
my birth.

The article doesn’t mention the real reason film production has moved out of California to other locations: those other locations are union-free. All the tax breaks in the world aren’t going to affect that particular issue one iota.

So these leftist rats are fleeing the ship and spreading plague to all the saner states which they now infest. I wish to put a big sign at the Texas border “Hollywood Scum Not Welcome.”

Not surprising, since no one wants to wear a condom.

Hollywood communists are a disgrace to America. Hope where they move that the communists element gets crushed real quick before they pollute the air.

So the labor unions that fight for more taxes and regulation are now fighting for less taxes and regulation?

Unfortunate. They should be nailed to the ground in the state they helped screw up.

So LIEberal Producers and Film Industry who promote and vote for DemoRat leftist policies flee the state they voted in their ‘utopia’ to obtain tax breaks and incentives in other states. Buncha hypocrites and phoney 1%er rich, leftist elitists.

The Socialist movie-makers puke out anti-capitalist/pro-totalitarian dictatorship films at an alarming rate and then go somewhere else because the policies of that they are begging for cause their films to be too costly.

Every studio should be sent a 55 gallon drum of irony smothered in heavy malaga syrup.

Kind of like smokers moving to the non-smoking section to smoke because the smoking area is too nasty from all the smoke.
