  It's the opposite, California is the new brain-drainer like US post WWII. https://www.ppic.org/blog/californias-brain-gain-continues/ https://www.ppic.org/blog/californias-brain-gain-continues/

  California's larger number of domestic outmigrants tend to be lower income than the smaller number of domestic inmigrants. The people coming in are more likely to be software engineers, the people going out more likely to be the warehouse workers (or, even more likely, retirees.)

    Tell me the number and types of software engineers who have left, and I will measure the loss
