California economy gaining steam but recovery uneven

The economic recovery in the Bay Area and California is gaining steam, analysts said Thursday, yet the pace of job growth is being hampered by new technologies that enable employers to limit hiring.
Economists with the closely watched UCLA Anderson Forecast say the Bay Area is leading the economic rebound in California, and that California is leading the nation. But the upswing is uneven.
"This is a bifurcated recovery," said Anderson Forecast senior economist Jerry Nickelsburg.
Much of the Bay Area, Los Angeles, Orange County and San Diego enjoy robust employment growth, primarily because they benefit from high-tech and biotech employment growth. Yet the East Bay, Central Valley and Inland Empire continue to struggle to add jobs...
The population of Texas will be decimated by diseases transmitted by Asian Tiger mosquitoes. It's only a matter of time till it happens. Some random year in the near future. If it weren't for that, and the unpleasant summers, Texas would be a nice place with a great future.

Neither of those really discuss the fact that Texas has no long-term sustainable economic plan. It's not that straight forward. California is in the worst of times right now, but it's still a productive state. Texas, not so much.

Yeah Texas isn't productive that's why California based companies like Apple & Google are moving here.

Besides being significantly cheaper than CA (due to lower demand), why would anyone prefer Texas over CA? The worse weather and higher crime? Texas is really just a larger version of the Inland Empire, only with worse weather.

California has it's shares of problems has well. Crime, proverty, pollution, ect. Yes I have lived in California for a while it is beautiful, but when you have to many people living there it can become a nightmare. There is nothing wrong with Texas, so what if it's spread out not everyone wants to live in a concrete jungle. You know there is more to life than just cities.
Yes Texas could be it's own country but it's to late for that. Texas gave up it's rights to be it's own country when we joined the union in 1845. What Texas can do that no other state can is break up into 5 separate states, but I highly doubt that will happen either.
I'm sure any state can break into smaller ones if that is what its residents really wanted.
