While it’s unlikely that Toyota, which is ranked 8th on Fortune’s Global 500, will directly cite taxes as the reason for its relocation, it should come as little surprise that the financial burden of operating in California – both on the corporation and its employees personally – played a major role.They won't because Toyota is Japanese and Japanese are polite. Plus they have a lot of business interests in California which would be the targets of retaliation if they did.
Most likely they will offer most of their employees the chance to move to Texas with them, including generous relocation packages for key employees. I'm betting that in today's crappy economy, a larger number than normal will seize this opportunity to bail on California as well.

This is gonna be good. Would not surprise me if the state of Kalifornia tries to stop them or extract more money from them.
And the unions? Their heads are exploding.
It’s a good day when MARXISTS get their asses handed to them.

Remember your economic multiplier effects too.
5,000 jobs at Toyota support a good number of service jobs, both servicing Toyota, and also Toytota employee spending which supports jobs in places such as grocery stores, coffee shops, gyms, health clubs, hairdressers, department stores, you name it.
So, if 5,000 jobs are moving out of state, it’s possible that about 8,000 jobs total will be lost due to this move.

I read in the WSJ this weekend that when California “Cap & Tax” really gets going in the out years, the tax burden on business will skyrocket.

Note well it is a headquarters move and I’m thinking Kalifornia took a bite out of their total US revenue. At some point stockholders are going to demand this of ANY corporation headquartered in Kalifornia, Illinois, and New York, to name a few tax and spend locales.

They’re following Nissan’s footsteps. Nissan ditched California for the Nashville-suburbs.
