So, will all of y’all who’re fleeing California stay the hell out of Jawja. We really don’ need yer socialist ways. We’re happy enough bein’ moonshinin’, banjo playin’ crackers who pay almost no taxes to the State Gu’mint, and suffer almost no regulation in return.
Y’all taxed and regulated y’selves into a Terminator-overseen Judgment Day, and we don’ need any of that shit.
Stay the hell out of Jawja, y’hear?

In all seriousness, I truly hope that the people currently fleeing California are producers in favor of low taxes and low regulation, not looters in favor of high taxes and high regulation. No doubt I will be disappointed.
I remember, years ago, having a conversation with a Canadian woman, come south to work at BNR in Norcross, GA. She was living in Forsyth County, and while she appreciated the low taxes, she bemoaned the lack of government (taxpayer-funded) services. Though fairly smart, the link between government services and taxes apparently had not occurred to her. One day she remarked to me that she couldn’t wait for the day that Forsyth County had enough people who thought like her, so they could completely change the county.
Fortunately, Northern Telecom (majority owner of BNR) went Tango Uniform and had to shut down operations in Georgia - an importation of Canadians - before she could get her wish. That was a near miss, let me tell you.
For myself, I live in DeKalb County, and we have enough looters already, thanks very much.
