Regulations and taxes are driving record numbers of businesses and jobs out of California. The politicians and bureaucrats are in denial about their role in this.

Gone to Texas? (And isn't that the title of the novel that the movie The Outlaw Josey Wales is based on?)

the recent governor’s race was the narrative of the “oppressed” latina vs the “oppressor” rich gringo and capitalism.

californicate patio lizards chose the former and high taxes and excessive regulations against business.

How To Get Rid Of Obama For Good

Unless we are facing imminent threat from a foreign aggressor, Americans will vote in national elections on the basis of the state of the economy. Inflation is a major factor in this, but the most important issue is jobs. Unemployment is now chronically high.

We all now know that Obama is a socialist and his intent is to expand government at the expense of private enterprise. We also know that government never generates capital. It only consumes wealth; never creates it. We also know that the single greatest aspect of the economy affecting how people vote is employment. If I have had my job eliminated, my hours cut back, have been furloughed from my job, or am about to lose my job, I am more likely to vote against Obama and his big-government socialists.

Small and mid-sized businesses know that higher corporate taxes and government regulation, which Obama loves, destroys our free market system of prosperity. Small and mid-sized business owners know that the Obama administration must be defeated in 2012. Their contributing to the elections of those who run against Obama is not enough, however.

The best way for business to insure the defeat of Obama is for them to begin now to voluntarily cut back their employment rolls - even if it means temporarily sacrificing their companies’ profitability. Putting people out of work temporarily in order to insure Obama’s defeat in 2012 will mean a healthier business climate in the years to come. Once we get government off the backs of business and the working middle class of this country, we will be on better footing to grow our economy once again. The removal of Obama is the beginning of a long-term solution to our economic depression.

It might sound like a draconian measure to lay people off in order to insure Obama’s defeat, but let’s face it Obama is out to destory our country and we are in dire straits. What’s needed, as in time of war, are drastic measures.

In the past, when our country was under a threat from external forces, men (and now women) have been called upon to leave their normal means of employment to join the armed forces to insure the security of our nation for our families and posterity.

Now our country is under a different kind of threat - a threat from within - a threat from our own government which has hijacked our Constitution and has concentrated power in the hands of a few elitists. The threat is no less real than when our enemies have been external to us.
So the call for all of us to make sacrifices in a time of war is no extreme measure but is patriotic. And just as in a time of war when families, communities, friends and churches pull together to get through the crisis, so this should be the same response to those who find themselves out of work. If we all pull together, in the end our collective security will be insured and that of our children as well. Obama must not be re-elected for the good of all.

"The politicians and bureaucrats are in denial about their role in this."

I think that one of the problems is that there is no forceful way of bringing this information to the notice of the politicians, The Democrat idiot majorities that run California are in total denial and there is no way to convince them of their complicity in the cause of the problem and thus ti change their ways. With Brown as Governor, 2011 sure looks like popcorn time!

They are not!

They just went to Texas to see why business is leaving California. Then, promptly returned home and increased their taxes to improve “infrastructure” (Bike paths, paved foot trails and parkways) and force remaining business to convert to “Green” technology.

Like, fer sher man, who in their right minds would want to leave such a paradise? It's crazy dude! Texas is a dump and environmental waste land!

Besides, who needs jobs anymore? They are so out of style...

The only way to solve this is to raise taxes on the companies that are left. Well, that’s what they’ll do. Just watch.

Big business is sitting on cash and not hiring on purpose to make sure the first black P gets fired.

OJ didnt do it.

The majority of California voters are also in denial. That's why Boxer is still Senator, and Brown is Governor. It's why Democrats still control the state legislature, even though they refuse to fix the problem.

LeMaitre Vascular Inc., closing its Laguna Hills manufacturing plant and moving the work to Burlington, Mass.

How bad do you have to be to lose jobs to Mass of all places?
