Horribly run, such insane taxation, overrun with illegals....yet managed to create 75% of ALL job growth in the U.S. in February. Carrying the weight for all of those red states sucking on the federal welfare teet. Maybe they are on to something.....
the only thing California has going for most of it is the weather. Ill only visit on the companys dime.
Southern CA has absolutely PERFECT weather...year round!!! Of course that is going to be expensive! Id move there in a freaking heartbeat if I could afford it!!

I agree, California has perfect weather. I didn’t even see snow until I was 20-something!

I do miss that a lot. Sigh. At least we are out of the worst of the snow probably now.
The link doesn't assess 'level of taxation' either in dollars or percentage.
The link compares the total of each tax in dollars for the state compared to/expressed as a percentage of total personal income for the state....which isn't the same thing. Incomes in California are higher, so that is going to mitigate their percentage re what WalletHub is looking at, but it doesn't mean that Californians are paying less dollar wise than the states 'above them' on the WalletHub list, nor that the assessed percentages for income tax, sales tax, and property tax are less for the states listed 'above them' on the list.

I appreciate these sorts of facts and statistics, but never one to assume them true without some effort to verify, I'm having a lot of trouble finding what justifies the claim, especially before I pass this on to some choice Trump supporters and conservatives I know...
Lots of job growth, yes, but "75% of ALL job growth?"
Best I could find was this that doesn't seem to back up this claim at all.

It truly is. We left LA for Colorado several years ago and am thankful every day. We recently traveled to northern California as part of a larger road trip down the Oregon coast and was truly shocked (had forgotten) how terrible the homelessness and poverty was, as we simply don't see that sort of thing here in Colorado.
