Toyota bailing on California going to Texas

[Genx87]

Dallas is a booming city. Highrise apartments going up all over the place.

Look up incorporation doctrine. Stop making statements about things you know nothing about.

In fact, either put on the court jester's hat or stop posting here...

Yes. The 2nd amedment is now incorporated. How's that feel liberal?

Once those libtards see a free state the will rightfully get the fuck out.

High time to repeal the 14 th amendment.

Shit your mouth ignorant liberal

One thing is certain. Libtards will stay in ca against their own interests.

Free people from Kentucky will gladly take the upgrade and bonus to move.

I wanna know who leaked it.

Cheese got moved.

Public school system is screwed anyways, even the students from a "good" K-12 schools in CA are nothing compared on a global level. Charter schools are raising the standards and all big cities in TX have plenty of them

The majority of charters in Texas are TOTAL GARBAGE that are on par with some of the worst districts in the state.

 

[Wreckem]

I think it's healthy for both TX and CA to have some of this rebalancing:

Torrance:
http://www.zillow.com/torrance-ca/home-values/
$662,500

Dallas:
http://www.zillow.com/dallas-tx/home-values/
$110,200

The only thing $110k will get you in Dallas proper is is a tear down crack house/crack house in a bad hood. That said many of the bad parts of Dallas are gentrifying or about the start the process of gentrifying. Crackhouse tear downs being torn down and having $500k houses built in their places. The dense urban core of Dallas has already been renewed and is chock full of $500k-1million+ condos/townhomes and $2000-3000/month rental apartments. North Texas/DFW area real estate is expected to continue to rise.

And $600k won't get you much better in LA and the Bay Area.

Looks like Kentucky is losing out too.

Toyota is going to relocate nearly 5,000 jobs to Texas.

According to Rick Perry, 60 companies have moved to Texas since July 2012.

Something those libtards do not understand, they can not tax their way to prosperity. High taxes, high cost of living, excessive regulations are going to drive companies out of the stats.

I guess there will be an argument regarding their reason(s).

The shift is part of a corporate strategy to locate the employees running its engineering and manufacturing, sales and marketing, financial services and certain corporate functions all in one complex.

“Enabling greater collaboration and efficiencies across Toyota will help us become a more dynamic, innovative and successful organization in North America,” said Jim Lentz, chief executive of Toyota’s North America region.

One thing Dallas doesn't have: the gigantic Japanese community that is known as Gardena/Torrance. Once those JPN expats go to Dallas they'll be like "WHAT THE !!!! WERE WE THINKING".

While Texas will never have as large as Asian population as California, Plano does have the largest concentration of affluent Asian Americans in North Texas, possibly the entire state. The Asian American population of Plano LOVES Plano. Most of the people moving with Toyota will probably end up living in Plano and Frisco. If the housing market in Plano wasn't so tight, they'd all end up in Plano. The children-less and younger people might end up near Uptown Dallas.

You need to dig deeper.

Mr. Lentz had a nice slam on latimes.

Shit your mouth ignorant liberal

Also, you're pretty forgetful, it seems. I'm not exactly a full on republican, but I'm most certainly not a liberal. As for the 2nd amendment, I own 10 different firearms, and have been a pretty strong advocate for the 2nd amendment on these forums. Nearly ALL of the amendments are incorporated, as they should be. The bill of rights is not only for the federal government, but for the state governments as well.

Finally, I prefer to not shit my mouth, thanks. The least you could do is spell-check your posts...but I guess that's hard when you're foaming at the mouth.

They can enjoy the Dallas North Tollway lifestyle. Live in uptown, work in Plano, but spend most of your life on the DNT.

We still got the porn industry, for now.

LoL Not really most of the porn industry has slowly relocating to Vegas due to LA county's insistence on regulating condom use in their movies.

P.S. Lets also remember that here in CA, voters passed a tax on manufactured not to long ago. Also Tesla has made the ever so slight move to have other production facilities like their new Gigawatt battery manufacturing center built out of California. It's only due time until the vultures in this state descend on their business much like the vultures are descending on the Sriracha hot sauce plant over bogus reasons in order to shake them down for money. Though they might be heading out of state too (maybe not Texas but the lure is being swung for them) if the stupid as city council in Irwindale doesn't pull its head out of its ass.

**The majority of complaints against Siiracha came from just 4 households one of those being the son of a local city councilman.**

The city filed 13 declarations from residents, including City Councilman H. Manuel Ortiz’s son, Manuel Ortiz Jr., about the smells coming from the facility and how their quality of life was impacted, according to court documents.

Just give it time.

The constitution doesn't apply to states. So in that regard it isn't valid.

Did you eat lead paint as a child or something?

This reminds me of the right wing meme from a few years ago claiming all the rich people were leaving CA.

Because clearly if you are wealthy you would want to leave a state that has the perfect balance of great weather and amazing geography and move to a crappier place.

Because clearly, if there's anyone left in the State then no one has left at all!

Except me. Been free of CA since 2007. All you're going to have left are Mexicans.

If it weren't for Sillicon Valley's money, CA would have been completely bankrupt years ago.

 

[IronWing]

Maybe Toyota can rent the Energy Future HQ building.

 

[senseamp]

If it weren't for Sillicon Valley's money, CA would have been completely bankrupt years ago.

And if it weren't for oil money, so would Texas.

 

[Zaap]

^ Not a bad comeback! Well played.

Take away either (and California has plenty of oil money too) and my money would still be on TX doing better.

 

[senseamp]

I believe in the free markets. And the free markets are valuing living in CA higher than living in TX. People are willing to pay much more to live in CA than TX.

There has been a lot of debate over this, and it isn't exactly a free market. A lot of places are prohibiting new housing to be built, thus artificially driving up the cost of housing.

Texas does have a lower cost of living than CA, but that is because Texas isn't so full of smugness.

 

[Zaap]

People just have no choice but to pay more to live in CA. It used to be exactly the opposite by the way- this was the land of cheap property. Those days are over.

Paying more to be here is fine and dandy for those who can afford it. But why would companies pay more to be here when they don't have to? More and more, if they don't have to, they won't. And I know it doesnt mean anything to the ass-sitters doing nothing anyway, but to the productive that means those jobs won't be here either.

No one is prohibiting people from moving to Texas. People choose to stay in CA even if they have to pay more. That's how the free market measures value.

Depends on the company. If a company needs the best people, it will go where those people want to live, and pay what it takes to keep those people.
If a company just needs the cheapest labor, it will go to China, not TX anyways.
