Hey guys Toyota has cited moving the HQ closer to the factories and that meant Texas. Nissan cited taxes as a major factor in leaving California.

Face it-Regardless of the Tea Party, Gov Perry and all that conservative vs Progressive debate, taxes and regulation have a big part in corporate decisions and necessarily so. Neither Texas nor California are as awful as the critics say or as wonderful as the chamber of commerce says. Methinks partisans let all that debate color states beyond reality.
