The California libturds who control that state are doing all they can to rid themselves of their working class tax paying heroes by running them out of the state via financial force.
you are exactly correct
we know several long-term California workers who cannot afford to stay there
not that they want to anymore, living in the LA or SF areas has become a horrid nightmare
but also they just can’t afford the artificially-inflated costs of living there, inflated mostly by the political hacks and taxes and fees and regulations that drive up costs of living even more
Wait til Californians come to grips with $10,000 cap on personal State/Local/Property taxes. Adding an individual State version of the Obamacare Mandate is foolhardy.
