The schools are good in California where the elite liberals live and lousy everywhere else.  In fact, according to US News California K-12 is ranked 42nd and Texas is ranked 41st.....so much for Texas rewarding corporations at the expense of the kiddos.  Heck, Alabama K-12 is ranked 39th and above California. Facts.....stubborn things.

There is not a state in the union that is a worse business climate than California (NY and MA come close).  As for Texas, it makes one wonder why everyone is moving there, including tons of people from California.  Texas actually appreciates their businesses and that is why they go there. Our company is very successful in Texas and given the costs and regulatory burden have always struggled in California.  If we didn't have clients with projects there I would fire everyone and shut the office down.  Instead, I will make enough money in Texas to cover the fools in California that like living in a 3rd world state with nice weather.

Every state has problems but California makes the rest look like paradise.
