Toyota Moving American HQ From Cal To Texas

[Katzndogz]

Maybe after Pfizer fires everyone and moves to England liberals will get a clue.

 

[Politico]

Everything should move out of Kalifornia.

1. Texas is not as red as you think. In fact, Republicans aren't even guaranteed to win the governorship in November.

2. Businesses aren't leaving California in droves like you think, in fact California is adding jobs at a faster rate than Texas. If you are truly naive to think all businesses are trying to leave California, then you are too far blinded by red that it has clouded your logical thought process.

And you whistle while walking past cemeteries. Yes, that IS blind faith.

The hell are you talking about?

Milli Henry is best left unread. His coils aren't wound in the most uh, orderly manner, if you get my induction.

Toyota has been an incredible benefit to Torrance. The civic center, the Symphony hall, the meditation garden, all from Toyota or Toyota executives.

To see this fine company run out of the states by liberals is a tragedy.

It isn't "run out by liberals" -- that's the OP self-medicating, ignoring the rationale he put in his own OP because it doesn't fit his comic book. Consider the source.

 

[OKTexas]

Nope

Wrong answer, TX only gets a bout 78% of the dollars we send to WA back, so yes, we do subsidize the states that get more than the pay in.

Which are red or blue states?

Both.

 

[HenryBHough]

California's tax system is based on the unique religious beliefs of the Democrat hierarchy.

In their faith-based system of mathematics 91% of nothing ($0.00) is greater than 5% of anything.

Similarly their zealous belief that one can write a check for a percentage sign (%) rather than a dollar sign ($) and have the damn thing cashed.

Ummmm, THIS is what the headline actually is of the link you provided.....

Gee, CA, IL, NY. Businesses fleeing these states for red states. What does that say about liberal policies?

It says that liberal states are supporting moocher states like Texas.
What mugs.

Repeating a lie does not make it true, just annoying.

Red States are outperforming Blue ones...what the poster meant to say is that they mean to TAKE away the surpluses of the better performing States. He's confused, and jealous.

California Dumbos are too stupid to realize the consequences of their overregulation and excessive taxes.

Taxes are higher in California, but not the highest. Which 'over-regulation' are you writing of?

 

[eagle1462010]

This issue is proof that the Dems Socialist experiment is a FAILURE.

You can't constantly attack business and expect them to stay.

California needs to Wake the hell up and get rid of the loons that believe you can tax yourself into prosperity. We don't need the liberals leaving California anyway as they might infect other areas of this country with their Stupidity.

Rich People Leaving California for Mysterious Reason | FrontPage Magazine

It’s okay, the 1 percent only pays 41 percent of California’s income taxes. And half the state pays no income tax at all. No one will even notice they’re gone.

The rich aren't leaving California, they're moving their tax entity.

Whatever THEY are doing? It makes a statement about the punitive environment the Democrats in that State are foisting upon the people OF that State. Regardless. And California IS bleeding people.

Rich People Leaving California for Mysterious Reason

It’s okay, the 1 percent only pays 41 percent of California’s income taxes. And half the state pays no income tax at all. No one will even notice they’re gone.


Prop. 30, approved by voters in November 2012, raised state income taxes retroactively to Jan. 1, 2012, on singles making more than $250,000 and married couples making $500,000. It raised rates by one, two or three percentage points through 2018, bringing the top rate on incomes above $1 million to 13.3 percent, the highest in the nation.

Bryan Goldberg, who founded the Bleacher Report sports website and sold it to Turner Broadcasting for about $200 million in mid-2012, is moving his primary residence from San Francisco to New York this year. A major reason, he says, is Prop. 30 and the way it was applied retroactively.

Lee Schneider, a hedge fund salesman who works from home, also cited Prop. 30 as the “deciding factor” for his move from Walnut Creek to Austin, Texas, in 2012. The California native had recently built a $2 million house at the foot of Mount Diablo and took a loss on the sale, but “I can make half of it back in one year of tax savings,” he says.

Schneider’s neighborhood in Texas, which has no state income tax, is full of cars with license-plate frames from California dealerships. On a flight from Austin to Los Angeles shortly before Christmas, 11 of the 12 seats in the emergency row were occupied by people who had moved from California to Texas, he says.

Gov. Jerry Brown’s budget proposal released last week estimates that Prop. 30 alone will generate $5.7 billion in additional income tax revenues in fiscal 2014-15. That represents 5.4 percent of total general fund revenue, projected at $106 billion.

The budget makes no allowance for migrating millionaires.

But HEY? They're gonna have a $68BN Rail Line with all that new spending...what's NOT to like? FABULOUS...Illegals, and the indigent will LOVE IT.

It shows that the political out weighs the needs of the people. They have a levee system that is old and degraded which controls most of the water supply to the entire State.

They would rather have high speed rails than ensure the protection of the State's Water supplies.

Ridiculous.

Toyota To Move Jobs And Marketing Headquarters From Liberal California To Conservative Texas…

Another win for Perry and the state of Texas.

Via LA Times:
Toyota to move jobs and marketing headquarters from Torrance to Texas - latimes.com

Toyota Motor Corp. plans to move large numbers of jobs from its sales and marketing headquarters in Torrance to suburban Dallas, according to a person familiar with the automaker’s plans.

The move, creating a new North American headquarters, would put management of Toyota’s U.S. business close to where it builds most cars for this market.

North American Chief Executive Jim Lentz is expected to brief employees Monday, said the person, who was not authorized to speak publicly. Toyota declined to detail its plans. About 5,300 people work at Toyota’s Torrance complex. It is unclear how many workers will be asked to move to Texas. The move is expected to take several years.

Toyota has long been a Southern California fixture. Its first U.S. office opened in a closed Rambler dealership in Hollywood in 1957. The site is now a Toyota dealership. In 1958, its first year of sales, Toyota sold just 288 vehicles — 287 Toyopet Crown sedans and one Land Cruiser. Last year, Toyota sold more than 2.2 million vehicles in the U.S.

The U.S. branch picked Los Angeles for its first headquarters because of proximity to the port complex — where it imported cars — and easy airline access to Tokyo. As Toyota grew, it opened its national sales and marketing headquarters in Torrance in 1982. The complex, built where its parts distribution warehouse was once located, now has 2 million square feet of office space. But today, about 75% of the Toyota branded vehicles sold in the U.S. are built in America — many of them at plants in Texas, Mississippi and Kentucky.

Yeah, right. Toyota is moving because they can't stand California anymore.

Period.

Yeah...those people are gonna love it there....for about 3 months.

You ever live here in Plano,Tx?

The median household income in Plano is $79,234, according to the U.S. Census Bureau,
nearly 60% above the national average, and 8.1% of residents are below the poverty line,
compared to a national rate of 15.1%.
The city is also home to a number of Fortune 500 companies.

“Plano is a very clean, affluent suburb with no inner city per se,” says John Worrall, head of the criminology program at the University of Texas at Dallas. “Plus it has one of the few police departments in the U.S. that require four-year degrees. I don’t know that there is research to back up its making things safer, but it makes Plano unique.”

2nd lowest crime rate in the country for cities over 200,000.
