California just made it more difficult for employers to classify workers as independent contractors

California government is scum

Interesting that you cite NY and CA moving further left as the reason your clients are leaving. The republican tax initiative is the bigger reason why more people are leaving, making it even more difficult to own a home in the already overpriced LA.

There is a big problem with businesses in LA illegally classifying their employees as "independent contractors" yet requiring them to stay on the job 40 hours a week. Great for business as they escape their share of the employees taxes, health insurance, work mans comp, etc. CA is starting to crack down on this. It started with bill 1513; a lot of business freaked out at first but it's, imo, worked out for the better.

We already have a huge problem with companies using loopholes to escape taxes, it's nice to sometimes have the government looking out for the employees.

What you just said is "actually" retarded. It quite literally is the inverse of reality. The Trump/GOP tax plan is causing companies to move back into the US. Unemployment, including for minorities, is at a long-term low. You just made a stupid statement without any facts, and then went back to your socialist rant about using government to force party a to give party b something. Blue states are experiencing population decrease even with illegal immigration to their big cities.

You clearly are either unemployed, or work a boring, rote job for someone who makes more than you. You have no idea what business is, and your opinion (given how you cite nothing to make a sweeping, utterly wrong statement) is proof.

UFC is based in Nevada

But if the fighters are gonna try to unionize and take on a big labor fight, California could be a place they'd try to file the case since their labor laws and recent rulings could benefit their cause. While the UFC would try to file countersuits in Nevada, or something of that nature.

Think about when the NFL was in their most recent labor negotiations. The players were filling stuff in NY cuz past ruling favored them there while the NFL kept filling in Minnesota because of their stances.

It could play a big roll in that whole game if something like that were to happen.

Yep. It's very short term thinking.

If you owned a company, would you open a plant in California? If you say yes, then you clearly don't understand all the laws that businesses have to navigate and how much extra it costs your business each year.

It's like, would you open up a textile factory in America? No? Why not?

Because the American economy is more advanced than that. You'd open that in the third world.

California doesn't need nor want "plants". California has advanced technology, the highest echelon of film making and arts, etc. California doesn't design its laws or society like the less advanced societies and economies in the US need to do.

I doubt it because the UFC is centralized while the NFL spans the U.S., but I'm not a lawyer or paralegal. I hope the fighters get paid their worth even though I won't put up a penny to fund it through a union.

Wait what? Companies are leaving the state of CA, and not because of their "advanced economy." Its because the labor laws, taxes, and regulations are too onerous. The reason you would not build a plant in CA has nothing to do with CA being "advanced" (which it is not, as you can see by the homeless shanty towns and drug gangs), and everything to do with both the cost of labor, and how these regulations impact productivity.

It is amazing how socialist-leaning people keep repeating the same thing: if you do not agree with us, we do not want you in our state/hobby/sport/government. You don't get to pick, and frankly, you cannot do without us/them, because you are far better at giving opinions than producing value.
