Actually, Joe, the enviral whackos who control Club Sierra and other enviral organizations have wanted a large part of California's business to move out for decades.
This is why they have made it basically impossible to build a new power plant while closing the older ones or restricting them to being used a few days per year. They knew over 20 years ago that not allowing new power plants to be built would create expensive electricity. Expensive electricity and taxes have all ways driven business away to lower cost areas.
If they get their way, most businesses will move out except their contributors and most farmers and ranchers will be forced to leave so the salmon and steelhead will have water.
Then only the elite Watermelon Jihadists will be left with about 7 million illegal aliens to be their low wage slaves.
The Watermelon Jihadists are more than glad to see Buck Knives and any other business leave California.
Actually Grampa, the state government depends on business taxes and all other taxes created by business, with basically includes all taxes that are created by businesses. Including sales tax, property tax, paid by employees of those businesses etc etc etc.
Take that away and the state government gets choked off. And that's what I desire, to see the leftist government choke and collapse. No number of illegals will support these extreme leftist. Most send their money southbound and as businesses flee the state, the illegals will follow anyway.
I am looking forward to this, bring it on. It's all predictable, and just what this state needs. The AH from New York, Gray Davis will be left standing in the middle of a disaster. LOL!
