«Texas gained an astounding 471,000 people last year and Florida gained 417,000, while California lost 114,000. […] Those Census net-domestic-migration numbers show that 343,000 Californians left for other states.»
Reasons stated in the article:

- Punitive tax rates
- Untouchable public-sector unions that are ransacking budgets and opposing reforms
- Shoddy school systems
- Decrepit (but pricey) public services
- Traffic congestion
- Absurd housing prices
- Growing crime rates
- Failing efforts to provide basic infrastructure
- Sprawling homelessness crisis
- Lack of political competition

- Old agencies are not held accountable
- Environmental policies
