Now the problem with your rants and prejudiced comments about people with Texas being on welfare and therefore not counting in unemployment rates is that their labor force participation rate is higher than ours in California.

So do you know how to count?

https://www.bls.gov/web/laus/ststdsadata.txt

LOL, can you?

employed in CA: 18.4 million.
employed in TX: 12.7 million.

Again, the state that generates the highest revenue is in fact CA!

#themoreyouknow #themoreyougrow

now, why are you ignoring the fact that Tx has more violent crimes, more rapes, more child molesters than CA? Even though CA supposedly has more Gangs and illegals?

Maybe because rednecks are more violent? Heck, if the KKK were included in the Gangs statistics, TX would shoot to #1! Violent trump supporters alone is going to make TX the #1 most violent State in 2017. Just wait for it!

TX already beats CA. In just 1 year they will beat the rest of the states at the most violent, most hateful and most ignorant! #yesweklan

What do CA get from TX? Nothing really. Beside hateful and pathetic people on the internet trolling the CA forum.

What do TX get from CA? Apple, Google, Tesla, Air Plane parts, In N Out, and who knows what else. And that's just TX. The Red States all benefit from CA federal tax revenues.

If CA secede, most red states would cease to exists. Trickle Down Economy supporting the Red States. Imagine that.

* type 3-5 words in caps is a Temper-tantrum or making a POINT? hmmmm

Those who love it must have a paid off Los Altos house with prop 13 taxes from 1990 or just content with pitiful existence in a little cage and even "thankful" for it; those always do stand behind liberal brainwash.
You belong in California. With your post apocalyptic writing style, Hollywood would pay you big bucks.

So basically what you're saying is, if we were perfect, our economy would be better than 5th in the world? Damn, that's quite the incentive.

Facebook, another great California exporter. But it employs all of 15,000 people, and having all these brand name Internet companies does nothing to reduce severe unemployment throughout the Central Valley, or the higher than US average unemployment across the state.

I've already proved you wrong twice and you've had no response other than incoherent prejudiced rants, so please take your meds before trying to respond this time.

Oh, drive perfectly good people, who are born and raised in the State out because of Hi Tech.??? Not a chance and quite egotistical to boot. Decent people would want jobs of all types for everyone so the State was ... diverse and not just by the race or ethnicity. They would care about everyone not just those they think are better suited to live in CA.

I would think that the Liberal Progressives here would be trashing you for such an attitude, as they are supposed to be happy to help everyone, regardless of social standing.

Lol... Why you getting mad for? But your right we get our technology from California. Also your saying that you can get everything that Texas has in California. OK so where can I find a 3 bedroom house with lots of land for $250k in the Golden State?

California job growth in Manufacturing is half the rate of the rest of the United States. This one chart shows the growth from 2,000 through 2016.

Compiled by Chart: CA Manufacturers & Technology Assn. As of September 16, 2016 using figures compiled by Sources: Labor Market Information Dept, U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics

http://cmta.net/multimedia/20160915_...10_to_2016.pdf

Going back to 2007 at the start of the recession, Ca has lost a lot of manufacturing jobs, and lost a quite a few in 2016. See figure 5 page 4 and 6 to get the truth. These are government figures and official.

http://www.calmis.ca.gov/file/lfmont...Highlights.pdf

California jobs have been created in Education and Health Services, Leisure and Hospitality, and Professional and Business services in large numbers, and other fields have had very slow growth or have had a big decline in total jobs. The declining industries have lost hundreds of thousands of job.

I believe it maybe time for the following quote,"“If I owned Texas and Hell, I would rent out Texas and live in Hell”

Glad to be retired, but sad for those still trying to find work.
Sears, K-Mart, Radio Shack, and Macy's are losing business because people order online from Amazon and other retailers, and those stores could not keep up with the times.

The above stores have been dying out for years, and the companies will likely close in the not too distant future.

If a Californian wants to buy a saddle and there is no one nearby to make it, the saddle can be acquired from elsewhere in the USA where they are more prevalent. However, I think it is likely that there are still some saddle makers in California, because we still have lots of horses and riding stables and "horsey" events.

Here's a few right in Silicon Valley:



Northern California, and especially Silicon Valley does concentrate on high tech of all kinds and Southern California has a lot of people engaged in the entertainment industry.

The hospitality, travel and tourism industries are throughout California.

It's not unusual that companies tend to locate near other companies that are in their same industry and it helps them that they can draw on specialized workforces in those locations.
Poor and working class people are not particularly mobile. Look at the massive homeless population California cities have. They don't move away and they won't move away. California has to deal with them.
