Easy pickings, thanks to the democrats complete screwing up of the California economy with massive over-regulation, corrupt workers comp, an out of control crooked lawyer industry, and astronomical taxes.

Arnold's got his work cut out for him.

I thought Arnold was supposed to stop this.

I guess Arnold's lame workman's comp reform, inaction on the high cost of unreliable electrical power, foisting of higher local taxes and fees, and reinvigorated regulatory bureaucracy had nothing to do with it.

Great job Arnold.

So...if businesses are leaving, and Red State Nation people aren't wanted, just who is going to pay the bill for Kalifornistan's Blue State Nation entitlement seekers?

Yep going elsewhere to build is more favorable because land is cheaper and the codes for building less rabid.

I can see that.

California still supplies more revenue to the Federal government than it receives. In fact, not a few red states are among those most dependent upon Federal largesse, notably Montana.

"We take a holistic approach," Laurin said.

And that says all that has to be said. Business is NOT "touchy feely". Business is "dog eat dog".

You should slide on that BS you posted for a mile or so.

It's the Democratic controlled legislature and the press time given to the few radicals for news bites that are problems with the state.

We need to make about a 6% switch in voting patters and things will start to change.

Kalifornistan is already billions of dollars in the hole, but nevertheless saw fit to commit another 3 billion dollars they don't have to stem cell research. And they just banned .50's too ... I am starting to see why.
