It's not getting better its getting worse. Hell, LA is legalizing serious crime. Same with Oregon. No serious business in moving to Portland.

Elon Musk may be moving out of California, but state is still 'highly desirable': Lt. Governor
Elon Musk is moving. He’s not taking Tesla (TSLA) headquarters with him, but the newly minted second-richest man in the world, has moved out of California and is calling Texas home these days.
He’s not the first to leave, but he’s certainly the wealthiest and most high-profile to depart California. Musk’s move follows, Hewlett Packard Enterprise’s (HPE) announcement last week that it is moving its headquarters from Silicon Valley to the Houston area. Newly public Palantir (PLTR) also announced earlier in the fall that it would leave the Valley and move its headquarters to Colorado.
“For every one of those examples, which are unfortunate, certainly not something that I want to see, but for every one of those examples, there are many more companies that are telling us they have no intention of going anywhere, that they are California companies, that their people want to continue to live here,“ California Lieutenant Governor Eleni Kounalakis said in an interview with Yahoo Finance’s A Time for Change.
CEOs moving their companies out of California is nothing new. In 2019, Charles Schwab (SCHW) announced it would shift its headquarters from San Francisco to the Dallas area, as part of its TD Ameritrade acquisition. In 2018, a study by Spectrum Location Services, estimated that 1,800 relocation or "disinvestment events" occurred in 2016, the most recent year available. About 13,000 companies left the state from 2008 to 2016.
The Pacific Research Institute has ranked California No. 50, last place, on the level of burdens from state regulatory structures. Musk, who recently compared the state to a winning sports franchise that gets “a little complacent, a little entitled,” has also complained about government regulations in the past and this week at the Wall Street Journal’s CEO Council he called for the government to “just get out of the way” of innovators.
