Don’t get fooled. Intel has always had operations there. They have freaking expensive fabs there so of course they will spend money to upgrade every few years. This “new” investment was probably in the works for a year or two.
New, old, who cares. The point is if there is going to be that many new jobs there shouldn’t an investor check it out? Now who is the Debbie Downer???
I keep telling you, watch out for the disruption of states where Bannon, I mean, Trump the president has a hatred for.
Let them build over there, it will start a trend that will call for more companies to move out of CA. Add to it, a massive deportation of your renters in California, and you are in for a delightful scenario.
By the way, when they finish that factory, at the pace of innovation, it will be obsolete.
I called a friend of mine in Finix Arizona. That’s how we pronounce it in Spanish. She told me to wait for something. Maybe time to move there and buy some-anything. Houses and cars with signs for sale.
I’m sure Arizonans are thrilled. The last thing they want is to have the place Californicated. Heck - if too many of my fellow Californians move there I may have to take it off my list and go farther afield!
First - a few tech giants start up or expand existing operations bringing in folks from out of state. Next thing you know people are voting against open carry - but for motorcyclists splitting lanes!
An aging mom with advanced Parkinsons who needs me around - partly because exploding property prices make it all but impossible to find reliable, trustworthy caregivers.
Sorry to hear that. Long term care is so expensive. I deal with that, our life insurance policies have living benefits that will pay you for any sickness. Unfortunately, once you are sick you can’t apply.
So, we shouldn’t generalize, right? Everybody has a reason to leave CA or to come in. It is not about liberals and conservative voters. It’s the place that many people love for its weather. I think.
