The best and worst states for small business Red tape blues The Economist
To be sure, low-tax states such as
Texas generally score well, while
high-tax states such as California and Illinois flunk their tests. This may be because the kind of politicians who like high taxes also like bossing people around. But not always. Minnesota, a high-tax state, earns a respectable “B” for business climate, partly because it is easy to start a business there. Washington and Florida, both low-tax states, earn a “C” and a “C+”. Entrepreneurs fault Washington’s harsh zoning laws and gripe that in Florida new firms must jump through hoops like dolphins at SeaWorld.
Okay..........you want to start a small business............Look at the map from this site...............California scored an Overall F for small business............High Taxes...........Highest Regulations............and Highest Licencing costs in the country....................Check out the map............
Now go to Texas............A+...........overall............A+ on Taxes..........A+ on Regulations..........and lower than most states on Licencing Fees................
One state is Friendly to businesses and the other stabs them in the back.........
One state has been dealing with the possibility of water shortages with Desalination plants for over a decade while the other argues about how it will destroy the environment...............
Where would you want your new small business.............and with Desalination where you are punished to build in California due they wonder why they haven't done enough to protect their Citizens to ensure ample water supplies....................
Liberals are their OWN WORST ENEMIES.............and it takes nearly a disaster to go WE NEED TO BUILD THESE THINGS.................
So again...............
GET OFF YOUR HIGH HORSES AND GET IT DONE..............
Let's see, lets put two and two together. Which California Governor recently made statements regarding opening the California border to anyone who wants to move to the state and live the American Dream? But what this "Balding MoonHead Governor" forgot to mention to the citizens of Mexico was " We Are Out Of Water" !!!!! It was already bad enough before he opened the doors! Now what are all of these millions of immigrants from South America going to do when they wake up someday, turn on a faucet, flush a toilet, And Nothing Comes Out !
