Will migrating Californians bring their Leftist policies with them to Texas and ruin another state?
Californians: "It's too expensive here, we're moving!"
Californians in new state: "You guys are like SO primitive and backwards! Back HOME we had blah blah services and this or that government program and it's SOOOO much better."
Californians in new state during election: They vote for the exact same leftist policies that drove California into the ground to begin with.
Years later, same Californians: "Why is my property tax SO high?! Why do I have to pay SO much more for gas and other basic goods?! This is outrageous, we're moving!"
And thus the cycle continues, destroying state after state while fleeing the devastation THEY created in their wake.

Watch the video below to learn about three different ways we can encourage the development of new ideas: patents, prizes, and subsidies.
