If Davis's medical law drives oracle out of California- good riddance, imo they should move to India anyway.
Why not just tax all profits at 110% and drive every business that can move out of state if this is to be the philosophy? We can pay for lots of sweet sounding programs with THAT money- -for a short while.

If a business is movable, why WOULDN'T it leave CA, given the direction you and your friends are taking it? Our neighboring states have got to look irresistible at this point.

You think businesses have to be in this state to take advantage of CA universities? Are you going to get a law passed prohibiting graduates of CA universities from leaving the state? I think the USSC is going to have a problem with that. Unless CA is prepared to secede and then hold off the US Army, this won't work.

What are those UC grads going to do when they get their sheepskins and the jobs are in AZ, UT, OR, .... ? That's a rhetorical question; you know what they will do.

A lot of those foreigners you are whining about? They have advanced technical degrees from foreign universities. They come here on a green card, work awhile, get permanent residency, maybe citizenship, and start their own companies. There are hundreds of companies in the valley that were started by immigrants. And CA taxpayers DIDN'T have to pay for their education, which not uncommonly are better than supposedly equivalent US educations.

Have you got your Socialist Worker's Party membership card yet? You really are the sorriest excuse for a conservative I've run across. There is no such thing as a tax or a gov't program you don't love.

What gives here, lizzie? How can you POSSIBLY claim to be a Republican with views like these? You'd fit right in with Robert Reich, Ted Kennedy, .....
