There is a lot of manufacturing in California. There are a lot of new factories in California. California manufactures almost as much as most of the Southeast combined. (Note that CA manufacturing is spread across dozens of industries.)

The difference is that successful businesses in California just do. They don't whine about problems caused by their own incompetence.

Trust me I know. If you've ever talked to any of them they absolutely whine about California if you let them.

I’m going to doubt your claim. Texas alone has a similar number people employed in manufacturing as CA.

How CA can manufacture more when you add all the other SE states?

And your statement is like saying “sure the food has poison in it, but people just tough it out and don’t whine”

How about not poising food? Seems like a worthy goal.

There is also a good framework of shadow organizations that will take cash and some of your problems away.
