2014 Layoffs and Business closings

[Capt Caveman]

Communistfornia contributes more than just entertainment. I eat fruit grown in the state.

The original comment was about how much money the state makes.

My question was how much does the state bring in if you subtract everything from the entertainment industry. My opinion is the entertainment industry contributes a lot of money and tax dollars to the state.

For some reason a lot of people are quick to protect this parasite of a state.

Actually, it brings in very little compared to it's other industries. Idiot.

Parasite of a state? Again, you're an idiot.

 

[Londo_Jowo]

What does commiefornia contribute to the rest of the union besides entertainment?

Where are the chemical plants, refineries, steel mills, ship yards,,, stuff that is used to make real products?

Refineries - 18 (16 operating)

Chemical plants - California has about the same amount as Texas.

Shipyards - 10 (1 Naval, 9 private)

So they do contribute something after all.

Instead of posting insults, take a lesson from Londo_Jowo.

A simple google search would solve your problem. Maybe, instead of doing your own work, you should educate yourself. Idiot.

You'll soon realize that CA outproduces in many industries that your small little brain thought TX led in.

 

[Texashiker]

Idiot.

You sure are good at insults.

Did you mom and dad not show you enough love when you were a baby?

Plenty but when someone like yourself posts time after time with your ignorance and stupidity, expect to be called an idiot.

I heard people who have fetal alcohol syndrome have anger issues.

Did your mother drink a lot when she was carrying you?

She doesn't drink. I'm guessing you were born with a brain defect b/c at your age, it's hard to believe somebody can be as ignorant and stupid about the country as you. And you'd think you would know how to use google by now.

Did your dad not molest you, but you wish he had?

There has to be a reason why there is so much anger in your post.

Quoted for proof, and reported.

You be sure to report caveman and all the insults he post.

What does commiefornia contribute to the rest of the union?

Your chart shows a lot of basic stuff that people need - education, health care, real estate, government, finance,,, which creates no real wealth.

The only thing on that chart that creates a physical object that could be considered real wealth is construction, mining, and manufacturing.

Like I said, besides entertainment commiefornia contributes little to the rest of the union.

Is it simply that you were poorly educated or is it just willful ignorance?

I will repeat, the 12th largest economy in the world if you compare the state of California to the economies of all the counties of the world.


"According to the California Department of Food and Agriculture, "California agriculture is nearly a $36.6 billion dollar industry that generates $100 billion in related economic activity."[36] The state’s agricultural sales first exceeded $30 billion in 2004,[37] making it more than twice the size of any other state's agriculture industry."

"California is the leading dairy state.[38] Milk is California's number two farm commodity.[37] Exports of almonds continued to be the top commodity from California, with a value of $2.83 billion in foreign sales. Dairy and dairy products ranked second to almonds with a California total export value of $1.42 billion, a 24 percent increase over 2010. See http://www.cdfa.ca.gov/statistics/pdfs/2013/CA_Exports.pdf. California's dairy industry generated $47 billion "in economic activity" in 2004 and employed over 400,000 people."[38]"

We are getting too far off topic of the thread.

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

12th largest economy in the world!

Make it bold, italic, all caps. It won't pernetrate that thick skull.

FYI, as long as a person isn't making specific threats or racial slurs, direct insults not of an excessively scatalogical nature are par for P&N (and OT). However, saying you've reported a post is a violation, and possibly actionable. That last part seems a little vague.

 

[Texashiker]

12th largest economy in the world!

I have already said commiefornia contributes something.

I work at Dell and we lost some good people thanks to Obama

Links, proof that it is Obama's fault

 

[Engineer]

Not sure if serious. Of course, you know that many of the jobs created are of the McService McJob type though. I guess that's better than nothing though.

Obama may have caused some of it but Dell hasn't done itself any favors over the last decade or so as far as business decisions.

You mean this economy?

 

[cubby1223]

Wow that is one of the most deceptively scaled graphs I've ever seen! Never realize at quick glance the chart is actually saying there are more than 4x as many people employed 35hrs or more than under.
