"And the state taxes in Texas? Forget about it! Heck, it even has an ocean!"
Sorry Mamas and Papas - not about your song. In fact, this is not even about dreaming - that is unless you consider a nightmare being a dream (I guess it is). As of late, I have been seeing quite a bit of negative press about our Golden State of California. How it ain't so golden anymore. How the state which at one time (in my lifetime) was a mecca, is now turning into a sinking ship.
No, I am not going to talk about the drought. Nor the forest fires. Not even the endless earthquakes. No, I am going to talk about the Moon - as in "Moonbeam". You know, that idiot who is running (or ruining) the state. People and companies (with any capital) are leaving in droves. Why? I don't know - the confiscatory taxes? Is that why so many are moving to Texas?
Here is the bottom line. And you do not have to have an MBA from Harvard to figure this one out. Companies, as well as people, do not have to do business nor live in a state which is unfriendly to taxpayers. Texas has even more room in it that California. Lots and lots of room for people to move into. And the state taxes in Texas? Forget about it! Heck, it even has an ocean!
My question is this. Why would a state with hot, humid summers, tornados in the spring and fall, snow in the winter, have over four times the job creation than California has had in the past 20 years. Could it possibly be the business climate? Like taxes? Well, it has got to be something! And as "Moonbeam" wants more money for just about everything, those who can, have left.
Attention Minnesota's version of "Moonbeam". We are next. Wake up and smell the coffee. Good flipping grief. We will become the "Cold Omaha" that every panic merchant has talked about for years. Check out the exit ramps Governor Statist. There are a whole bunch of people leaving. And if you don't help fix things, I will be penning my blogs from Pensacola in the near future. That is an immutable fact sir - take it to the bank.
