LOL.
Failing "companies" who either are somebody's nephew who couldn't afford the Bay Area or crappy exploiters who needed cheaper labor and lower real-estate prices to manage to stay in business.

Wishful thinking, Dave. Go back to the Texas board and talk about whatever there is in Texas. Skeeters and oil, I guess.

Like this nonsense:
Automattic
was in: San Francisco
now: Work from home

Or: Mithril Capital Management

Yeah, a "capital management" company named after a Dungeons and Dragons armor. Super legit. Some trust fund baby deciding to close his 200sqft "HQ", because he's mad at dad cutting off his MJ money, and work from his Mom's basement in Tennessee.

What a joke! Thanks for the laugh. Call us when SpaceX or Google leave. Haha.

Dave, you should be glad. Now all those immigrants you say will flow from India when the working visa limits are removed won't be coming to California...

This new article says the contrary but that is the case with a lot of articles and statistics.

Yea it's real funny that companies are leaving Ca. Don't think Sacramento is agreeing with you but they'll never comment on it. Toyota left LA, Karl Karcher left OC. Boeing is a fraction of what it was here. Still laughing???

Yes. I am. Those companies leave and the state economy continues to roar on surpassing all others. I wish it wouldn’t, as I keep saying, but there’s still humor in “the sky is falling!” outcries.

How many times do folks like you need it pointed out: businesses move all the time all around the nation and world ... for many reasons. Have a martini and a joint. Watch some funny shows. Enjoy your days.

California doesn’t need to hold on to every resident and business in order to be a nice place to live and enjoy life.

McKesson is on that list and nothing you just posted is the reason why they are moving.

It only makes sense as to why companies leave. CA is notoriously know for being anti-corporation and not business friendly like Texas is.

Sapce X is in Texas right now

also you cant have a Coke with star in calif due to politicians telling you stats are bad

alot of companies moved out of Calif not just for lower taxes but just got sick and tired of the BS the liberal leadership outs you through - and who likes paying 10 -11% income tax after you risk your life saving to start a business.

some like me said screw it- you win and i am out of here - not worth the bull**^ anymore

Again: so what if companies move? So what if people move? So what? Do you whiners and chicken-littles think every person and company in the nation needs / should be in California? What kinda cluster fork do you think could endure such a horrible fate? The state rolls on ... right over all others. Sheesh.
