True
Many businesses I know left California and their costs were cut mostly in half.
Kimberly Clark paper products (BNSF Customer) moved from Fullerton to Tulsa Ok.
My neighbor who worked there is now renting a three bed, two bath home with a 3 car garage on a 1/4 acre for the same price he was renting a tiny studio for.
I never understood why the UP many years ago expanded and built a fuel rack in Yermo when they should have built it at Arden south of Las Vegas, saving the railroad millions.
That AB5 law has been a huge burden on so many,
To ban Independent Truckers (along with a million regular workers) is so stupid!
The losses in state and federal taxes must be in the tens of billions.
