despite the California exodus (of residents, companies and industries) to less expensive locations, mostly notably Texas, which had started since the late-1980s, the golden state has continued to grow. in terms of GDP by US states, Calif continues to be the largest ($3.1 Trillion), ~ 78% bigger than Tx ($1.7 Trillion) who is in 2nd place. fwiw, If Calif is regarded as a country, in 2020, it had the 7th largest GDP in the world in 2021/2022 it has the 5th largest GDP in the world, surpassing the UK, France and Italy. by 2030, Calif is expected to be the 3rd largest, behind only the US and China
If California was it’s own country independent of any federal assistance much less, who would want to move there ?
lol 11 states pay more in federal taxes than they get back — You get what you pay for — but that may not always be the case when it comes to federal taxes. A lot of federal tax money is immediately rerouted back to the states in the form of grants, which the state uses to spend on resources. But in some states, some taxpayers are left spending more in taxes than what they receive back in federal services. Consulting a report by the Office of the New York State Comptroller, we took a look at the monetary difference between how much taxpayers pay to the federal government and the benefits they receive in return for each state and Washington, DC. The report examines the flow of funds between the federal government and each state for the federal fiscal year that ended on September 30, 2017, based on data from federal budget documents, the IRS, the US Census Bureau, and other sources. We described the difference as the balance of payments. For example, California's balance of payments is -$13.7 billion. This means California residents get less in return than they pay for. However, Iowa has a balance of payments of $2.5 billion, meaning Iowa residents receive $2.5 billion more in federal services than what they pay in taxes. The difference per capita means how much the average state resident received in federal services versus what they paid in federal taxes. In California, each resident is sending in $348 more than they get back. In Iowa, each resident is receiving $797 more back in federal services than they paid in taxes. The majority of states received more in federal services than what they pay in federal taxes. ... https://www.businessinsider.com/federal-taxes-federal-services-difference-by-state-2019-1
Why compare? There’s enough California in Texas I mean you can go to In and Out and Trader Joe’s and not pay $6 for gas
