Yamaha Moving From California to GA
More high taxes and anti-corporate policies causing a very predictable reaction.
Yamaha US headquarters moving to Kennesaw, GA.
I guess nice weather wasn't enough to overcome all the other issues in an increasingly socialist run state.

Just today former head of Starbucks leaving WA for FL. I do think Yamaha has had some production in GA a number of years.

Good for Yamaha!
I guess they’re sick of the California bullshit.

As
Far as starbucks goes-
I’d be rather suspect of those moves.

And their answer to the continuing exodus is, “TAX THE RICH MORE! That’ll teach them”.

As long as they don’t bring the California bullshit with them. Otherwise it won’t be long until Georgia is sick of Yamaha’s bullshit.

Exactly!
Georgia is like Illinois that’s successful.
Atlanta is pretty liberal, yet the rest of the State keeps it Republican.
Keep jamming people into that area that are leftist, the cancer keeps spreading.

The same with Tennessee and Nashville area.
Starbucks moving in just adds more liberal bullshit to that state.

Illinois-
You get away from Cook, Lake and DuPage counties, this place is actually pretty normal.
Unfortunately, the majority of the population (and voting) comes from this area.

Who does Commiefornia "want" to live there? Someone HAS to make the money they want to tax, right? Is the entire coast supposed to only be populated by the uber rich and their serfs? It is unfathomable how anti-business they are. They can't expect everyone to stay and be taxed to death. Moreso corporations that have investor interests to consider.

Yep. Some of the deepest red, most huntingest and shootingest country boys/girls you'll ever meet are from the rural areas outside of Chicagoland.

It's a shame that they can't counter the sheer mass of Chicago politics.

They already have a large operation in Georgia, but this sounds like they are moving the rest of the kit and caboodle there.

My Waverunner was made in Georgia so you are 100%. Engine was made in Japan but waverunner is made and assembled in Georgia.

I’d imagine Honda will leave the LA area soon enough as well. I think they are in Torrance.

Yep. Chicago makes the state blue. Nashville and Memphis could destroy Tennessee.
What we have is an urban welfare state problem.
The rest of us are sick of it.



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

My old home state of NY map looks a lot like this a big blue blob in NYC, a couple more sprinkled around and the rest of the state solid red. In reality ( the only exception I can find is Massachusetts) ever5 so called blue state is really a red state with a couple big urban blue cancers stuck in it.

Some of the blue in that map isn’t even all that populated. The bottom tip is Cairo. Once a thriving city, it now has a population of about 1500. Welfare is the number 1 employer (#2 being the criminal Justice system). The town has become a wasteland of ghetto car washes, weed shops, and slot machines.

Exactly!
I just don’t want places like Georgia and Tennessee to suffer the same fate.

With a lot of of these companies moving in, like I said, I hope they don’t bring their liberal bullshit with them.
Especially their liberal voting people!

I fixed that sentence above for you. I know because I live in Texas and it’s the same here in DFW. The same in Austin. The same in Houston. It’s a damn virus that won’t stop spreading.

Uber rich and their surfs - that's the plan.
