Pat in the West 🐎

ANOTHER ONE? 😂 Hermeus isn’t “moving to California” the way you’re spinning it, Gavin. They’re shifting their design and prototyping HQ to El Segundo to be closer to the big Southern California aerospace/defense talent cluster (SpaceX, Northrop, etc.) and military test facilities. Translation: They’re keeping their manufacturing and production in Atlanta, Georgia — because your insane regulations, high taxes, and anti-business environment kill productivity and make real building too expensive. This isn’t a win for California. It’s proof that if you want to play in the Military Industrial Complex and move fast on high-end defense work, you need to be near the established West Coast ecosystem. The actual making of things still happens in red states where government doesn’t get in the way. Meanwhile, real companies keep voting with their feet and leaving your failing state:Chevron — moved its headquarters from California to Texas • Hewlett Packard Enterprise • Oracle • SpaceX • Tesla (major operations) • Charles Schwab • McKesson And many more Net result? California has been bleeding people and businesses for years — the largest net domestic out-migration of any state, year after year. Keep trying to spin something you've had nothing to do with for your Presidential campaign. The rest of America knows the damage you've done to California.
