Adios California, Hello Austin, Texas

Whatever one thinks of Texas Republicans and their religious proclivities, they seem to be doing a decent job of luring entrepreneurial net taxpayers out of California, while the California Democrats are luring the net tax recipients in.

Each to his own.

UPDATE: Of course, there are hazards to the locals when Californians fleeing the nanny state arrive in large numbers. Southern New Hampshire ran into those when masses of Massachusetts residents fled that state's tax and regulatory hell for low tax, low regulation New Hampshire, and then demanded vastly increased government services. Apparently the Massachusetts schools had failed to tell them that increased services require hire taxes, and increased regulation increases stultifying bureaucracy.

Go figure.
