(961 posts)I've noted on this board it's easier to slap someone on the back and yell for your team than it is to face even the most simplistic of truths.
The only point I made is that Scott will accomplish what he went to do. That's all I said. He went to CA to entice additional businesses to relocate or to open up their territory into FL. Nothing wrong with that.
Now if you want to see some of the businesses who left CA for TX, you can find them using your favorite search engine. But they are there.
I'll only add this: The best thing Brown could have done was to say to businesses "And here's why you should stay" and then make a list. But a letter that says "Mind your own State's business" is easily met by "If you don't like what I'm doing, make them a better offer." Then game on.
