A 2015 study found that CA was DEAD LAST in manufacturing investment. Schiff wants to pretend like it isn’t the state’s progressive policies that drive people out but let’s review one outfits reasons why businesses are leaving.
Number 1 is taxes. Color me shocked. This goes without saying that progressive policies require high taxes. File this under DUH.
Number 2 is wages. California has a 15 dollar an hour minimum wage coming down the pike and many businesses are fleeing before that goes into effect. Progressive fights for higher minimum wages have plagued the state for years.
Number 3 is unions. And who do Unions support? Progressives. Next?
Number 4 is environmental regulations. And who put in all of the environmental regulations? Progressives.
Sorry there Schiff. Progressives killed this state. Progressive policies are definitely incompatible with business.
