Who Wouldn't Want to be Here?

On February 11 2013 Ross Ramsey published a story on Texas Tribune about the battle for business in California between Texas Governor Rick Perry and Californian Governor Jerry Brown. Rick Perry took a four day trip to California and spent nearly $24,000 on ads to convince businesses to move their business to Texas because business is so "much easier" in Texas than business in California. Brown and Perry duke it out to convince Californians where business would be better. The truth is, neither Perry or Brown care where business will be easier for the businesses Perry just wants to steal the businesses from California to grow economically, and Brown wants to keep it to maintain growing rates in the economy in California. Perry used nothing factual to persuade these businesses other than it is Texas, it is beautiful who wouldn't want to be here? Who does that? Texas being a great place is not going to convince me I want to move my business there. Perry claims his tactics were just to get the idea out there, but that is not something that I feel is going to capture the business's attention. This article is pure entertainment.
