It seems the legislature in California is doing everything it can to drive businesses out of California. Higher taxes, out of control spending, more regulations and pandering to special interests are at the core of our economic problems. The state government has made it nearly impossible for businesses to survive because they do not understand the cause and effect their actions have on businesses in California.

The loss of these organizations to other states means a loss of private sector jobs, the source of government revenues through taxes. Instead of creating an environment conducive to free enterprise and job creation, our state government is making California suitable only for endangered species and those who believe the solutions to our problems exist in government. The exodus of business enterprises leaving California is of Biblical proportions.

It doesn’t have to be this way.
