Silicon Valley is still in California.

Many new start-ups still want to start in California.

As much as I hate the policies of Sacramento, reports of the death of the entrepreneural spirit of the Golden State are still exagerrated.

As long as Californians continue to run and elect the candidates they do, they deserve the mess they are in. The fix starts at their own ballot box not with the companies that are leaving.

NO PROBLEM!
Ca will just tax its residents more!
They should not mind as they are mostly liberal and LOVE big govt.!

“It’s no mystery what causes companies to leave California: high taxes, undue regulation, workers’ comp costs, a legal environment stacked against businesses, and lengthy and costly construction permitting requirements,” Vranich says

And the Democrats there can be counted on to do absolutely nothing about any of the above.
Congratulations on your election habits, California.

Sure isn’t going to be much commerce for the mexican government to absorb once it plants its flag in Sacramento.

This does not include all the small businesses that left eons ago..

Without getting into all the particulars, I met one such contractor that left for a very low populated state which will remain nameless as to not have more follow him...

Just hope these companies don’t drag any California contaminants with them. Colorado use to be a red state. Now it’s going pretty blue, and then there’s Boulder which might as well be in S. California.

Minnesota seems bent on following the California template. 3M and NWA aren’t the only ones leaving.

[Logical me]

California is nothing more than a suburb of Mexico and add the liberal communists jackasses that have ruined the business community and what do we expect. I'm moving just as soon as the grand kids get established so they can support themselves, then away I go to the sound of mariachi music as I pass down the freeway out of town forever.

The song Golden Gate depicts an entirely different California--before its economy was ruined by welfare state socialism.

Schwarzenegger made a crack about now wanting to make a commencement speech in Arizona because, with his accent, he might be deported back to Austria. Do you suppose he could use his accent to explain why businesses are leaving California.

[Vaduz]

High taxes, undue regulation, workers’ comp costs, a legal environment stacked against businesses.
It all sounds just like what Obama&Co.wants to do the nation.

I really, really hate to write this and it’s just MHO, but if you want to see the future of California, look at Detroit today.

Not only is liberalism a mental disease, it causes widespread destruction.

C’mon November!
