Inconvenient truth, of course. Facts have a well known liberal bias!
And Ca. is still a s**thole. Amazing.

The inconvenient truth is only venture Capitalist and the well off can afford to live in the major cities there.

And for the love of god PLEASE stop moving to Las Vegas! we're FULL!. I'm sure people in WA, OR, ID, and TX are saying the same thing though.

They are. No state wants Californians moving to theirs.

He sounds just like a Democrat doesn't he? Anyway California has basically done away with any effective border with their Sanctuary state policy. No wonder the cities are starting to look like 3rd world countries.

It's a bogus article by a bogus business network simply trying to prop up a blue state. There's no way Cali could have added any more jobs than those doing better. Even if it were true, it wouldn't offset the many losses they've had and are continuing to have due to horrendous political, social, and economic conditions.

Inconvenient truth, of course. Facts have a well known liberal bias!

And even considering the fact above (and let's not forget Texas is one of the "big 4" in terms of VC investment in the US as well) all three states rank among the worse of the 50 United States in terms of fiscal health, generally jockeying the the bottom 40th to 50th positions overall:

Here's the fine example of where this fine Governing, taxation and regulation have got these fine states thus far:


Massachusetts:

Cash solvency: 111%

Revenues to Expenses: 95%

Long-term liability to total assets: 275%

Pensions to income: 33%


New York:

Cash solvency: 108%

Revenues to Expenses: 101%

Long-term liability to total assets: 61%

Pensions to income: 37%


California:

Cash solvency: 119%

Revenues to Expenses: 104%

Long-term liability to total assets: 92%

Pensions to income: 54%




Here's some more interesting facts on the subject where you can compare each state's current financial situation:

The red states will proudly go mine in harsh weather like real Americans... or Russians!!
Wonder how many jobs Mississippi, Alabama, Kansas, Arkansas, et. al. each created? Weren't there only 22,000 total jobs created in February in total? And 17,000 were in California. Interesting.

Are you speaking for all 49 states, or just yourself as one individual with an opinion? Could you post your methodology for reaching millions and millions of people?
