"It is no secret that business and jobs are flowing to Texas from California but that is not the only state that is benefiting with new jobs as a response to higher taxes in once was called the Golden State."

The quality of Examiner blogging is such that I appreciate your posting only a single sentence.

I use the term lightly.

Let's see. On the plus side is more jobs. On the minus side is an influx of fags, pedophiles, America haters, anti gun psychos, PETA types, open borders proponents .......

Are we sure it's worth it? It's not entirely unlike the Teamsters getting into be with the mafia. Sure, it meant job security, but is it worth it?

That "thing" you posted as a single sentence prompted me to look at your profile page. I thought perhaps I would find some indication of a poor upbringing or pertinent medical history that would excuse your butchery of the English language. Instead I found this:

"Master of Library Science by training, writer by choice" (sic)

To borrow from a popular movie, "You have chosen ... poorly."
