Just got back from a two month stay. Paid more in CA income taxes I have paid in many years, the mood of many was gloomy, homeless guy was sleeping on the stairwell of the extended stay hotel I was staying in a middle class neighborhood and the only real positive was a cheeseburger, fries and coke was still under $10 at In N Out. In N Out a California company that was founded back in the 1940’s in Baldwin Park CA is planning on moving out of state. This follows a long trend of major companies moving out. At one time Toyota, Nissan and Honda had its North America HQ;s in CA. Only Honda remains. Two years ago California had a budget surplus of 21 Billion. Now the State claims a 73 Billion budget deficit. How does that happen during a “booming”: economy?
