Downer Ending? Iconic Hollywood Studio Considering Ditching Tinseltown for Friendlier Waters


In recent years, however, the Los Angeles district itself has faced struggles, with the one-party Democrat rule in L.A. and the rest of California makes life more and more miserable for companies trying to actually get things done and make a profit.
State Attorney General Rob Bonta has been threatening to sue to block the merger because he believes that it will harm competition, reduce jobs, and shrink consumer choice. What he’s really saying, though, is that California can’t afford to lose all that tax revenue (it costs lots of money to fund healthcare for illegal aliens), and they don’t plan on changing their business-busting ways, so he’ll try to stop the bloodletting with lawfare.

California’s Utopian Fantasy Takes a Hit as Defense Firm Flees Bureaucracy for Texas Opportunity


Saronic Technologies, an Austin-based innovator in autonomous vessels, opted against building its $3.2 billion “Port Alpha” shipyard in Solano County, a move that would have delivered thousands of high-paying jobs to a region desperate for economic revival.

This isn’t merely a lost bid for one company. It exposes the deeper dysfunction plaguing the Golden State: a regulatory labyrinth engineered by Sacramento Democrats that prioritizes environmental dogma and union demands over practical job creation.

when people are willing to take a loss to get the hell out of your state…there’s something terribly wrong.😡😡😡👎🏽🦄🌈

'Disappointing': Steve Wynn's massive Calif. estate sells for staggering discount​


Rabinowitz said the proposed billionaire tax in California has made it more difficult to sell these ultra-luxury homes. “I think that we’re in an environment where the people in power in government in this state, where they’re chasing away entrepreneurs and ultra-wealthy people,”
 
Outside of Manhattan Beach or South Pasadena I would never buy property and live anywhere in LA County - those 2 towns are so uniformly nice and accessible I can make an exception.

PV is great and all but a PITA to get in and out of and now it’s as Asian as Irvine. MB was always elitist even back in the 80s but I like the mix of restaurants and walking to the beach and it’s easy in and out. Plus who doesn’t love sitting on the roof at El Tarasco.
 
My post-USC South Bay years were 89-92 - pre-Sharkeys. 12th Street in MB was the spot with all the girls flocking there for the Frohoff brothers - lots of pharmaceuticals. Besties in HB had a rocking club upstairs and Sunsets and SnortCenter for reggae Sundays. Lots of cheap meals at El T. Hoops after work and Sat mornings at Valley/8th Street courts. Great memories.
 
Harry O’s was a huge Kings hangout, before Sharks….I was a bartender at Beach Bum Burt’s for a decade. I’m sure I served you up a drink at some time. That place rocked the SB, along with the Red O next door…it was the golden age of bars….i miss it😢. California was truly golden then

Did Harry O’s replace Pork Browns on Highland?

RB Red O punched below its weight IMO - we went to the MDR RO for the MNF HH spread (remember when that was a big deal?) and Friday night meat market and the Huntington Harbor RO for reggae Sundays. The only place in King Harbor I hung out at was Najas and their 1000 beers.

Total golden age - Belmont Shore back then too. Even the Maxwells in Irvine went off.

yes, harry o’s became Baja sharkys across from ponchos. And correct again on RB RO…MDR set the standard for meat market layouts with the sunken center floor…King harbor had Beachbums, RO/Senior Frogs, Sports Center, Splash , Chillers and On The. Rocks…all strong bars.😂👍🏽🇺🇸
 
there was a super lurky place there called Blue Moon Saloon I recall - same crowd as Cassidy’s in MB on Sepulveda

Yah, a guy died there once when a bouncer threw him out and he landed on his head. It eventually turned into chillers😂😂😂👍🏽🇺🇸
 
I remember going to the opening of Chillers - always got the Suicide. Kind of sad our kids won’t get that young 20s experience we had - different times
 
We reap what we sow….🤦🏽‍♂️👎🏽😡😡😡🦄🌈

A California CEO Said Doing Business There “Sucks” So He Left for Texas​

Rent was never the whole indictment. California piles cost on cost until a grown man running a real business finally does the arithmetic. High cost of living. Workers burned by long commutes. A legal culture that treats a company like a piñata.

Permits, taxes, and a political class that talks about “equity” while chasing the people who sign the paychecks. Just the News recorded the same verdict Davis gave Fox. Add it up, he said, and the whole thing collapses.

Sacramento still sells the weather and the myth. The IRS is selling something colder. The latest IRS migration numbers show Los Angeles County led the nation in taxpayer flight, a net loss of 17,496 filers who took nearly $1.9 billion in income with them. Orange County lost 11,618. San Diego lost 9,401. Riverside lost 8,968. San Bernardino lost 8,462.

 
Being taxed for underfunded pensions that criminal Jerry Brown enabled by allowing collective bargaining for govt employee unions will produce the political crisis we’re all waiting for
