California is a prime example of what happens when you wed the general public's desire for spending with giving the Republicans the power to control tax policy, so that none of the spending is ever paid for.
This post is an excellent example of the lberals complete lack of sanity. Repubs havn't had control of the purse strings in CA for decades...but don't let that screw with your dementia there ol boy.
States with low unemployment rates, such as Texas, are drawing people from California, whose rate is above the national average.
Taxation also appears to be a factor, especially as it contributes to the business climate and, in turn, jobs.
Unfortunately, a lot of those Fornicalians bring their idiotic lolberal politics with them, as they try to make their new state more like the socialistic hell hole thy just escaped.
Colorado and New Mexico are prime examples.

What control do Republicans have over tax policy in CA?
Proposition 13 gives them a veto over tax policy.

No, it doesn't.

Republicans absolutely control the purse strings in California. They have the power to veto any tax increase.
Been suffering from these delusions long?
Proposition 13 gives them a veto over tax policy.
No, it doesn't.
Yes, it does, because it requires a supermajority for tax increases.
Always the leader in Trends.. here is another area..
A finer-grained regional analysis reveals that the main current of migration out of California in the past decade has flowed eastward across the Colorado River, reversing the storied passages of the Dust Bowl era.
Southern California had about 55 percent of the states population in 2000 but accounted for about 65 percent of the net out-migration in the decade that followed.
More than 70 percent of the states net migration to Texas came from Californias south.
A third factor is state and local governments constant fiscal instability, which sends at least two discouraging messages to businesses and individuals.
One is that they cannot count on state and local governments to provide essential servicesmuch less, tax breaks or other incentives.
Second, chronically out-of-balance budgets can be seen as tax hikes waiting to happen.
States with low unemployment rates, such as Texas, are drawing people from California, whose rate is above the national average.
Taxation also appears to be a factor, especially as it contributes to the business climate and, in turn, jobs.
Most of the destination states favored by Californians have lower taxes. States that have gained the most at Californias expense are rated as having better business climates.
The data suggest that many cost driverstaxes, regulations, the high price of housing and commercial real estate, costly electricity, union power, and high labor costsare prompting businesses to locate outside California, thus helping to drive the exodus.

WOW... taxes too high? Move!
No, it doesn't.
Yes, it does, because it requires a supermajority for tax increases.
Wrong again buckwheat. Prop 13 made it possible for poor old people to continue to live in their homes without having to sell them to pay the property taxes. Every time the home is sold it gets retaxed at the current rate.
What a ignorant lib you are.

True... I started this thread topic hoping some of those 7% Undecideds that may be on this board MIGHT make the very simple link that Calif. is a microcosm of the USA i.e. continued higher taxes, MORE regulations, ANTI-Capitalist attitudes is the Obama agenda!
The only problem is as it was said THE USA was the last bastion for where people could go that want freedom.. well if Obama gets re-elected that may not be true!
No one besides the right wing idiots want the whole nation to turn into a dump like mississippi.
This shit cracks me up.
Who the fuck wants to live in Texas?
Yes, it does, because it requires a supermajority for tax increases.

Tales of old people being forced to sell their homes to pay property taxes were used to tug at the public's heart strings, but didn't have a basis in reality. Most states don't have these types of caps and there is no wave of the elderly being evicted from their homes.
This shit cracks me up.

let see.... what my million+ property in SF gets me.... and what a million+ would buy me in TX..... i tell ya, it looks pretty darn good.
I could get 5X the house, a pool on at least an acre of property.....in a good area. Or no property in a gated community.
And that doesnt even go into the cost of living.
