So the farmers that have been supplying him for 30+ years can go screw themselves? Same for his employees? Gawd. I can understand encouraging people to relocate to friendlier climes, but some of you Texans are just vultures.

Maybe there should be a billboard sign at the first stops from the West into TX: “We Welcome Good CA Businesses… Not ~~Bad~~ Californians!”

FIFY. There are NO “good” Californians, or at least so Texans have told me.

Over and over and over.

I do not think the Huy Fong company is going to pull Texas to the left. They know why they are leaving and California and moving to Texas, and they are not going to mess that up.

I however agree that many people move to an area and try to change it to what they were trying to escape. The answer to this is simple.
The longer you live in an area the more your vote counts. The longer you are in a party, the more your vote counts in their primaries.

Here are a few more articles about the Colorado Model:

“It wasn’t The Democrats that pulled off the sea change in Colorado politics, it was a “Gang of Four” gillionaires that did it using the Democrat party as their vehicle. The “Gang of Four” are a group of extremely wealthy individuals who privately financed dozens of 501(c)(3), 501(c)(4) and 527 organizations that worked to overturn the Republican establishment and install leftist radical policymakers throughout the state.”

Huy Fong Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce is a safe bet for when eating out. In our house, we use Melinda’s for our sauces and Huy Fong Chili Garlic Sauce as a condiment at meals. You spoon it out rather than squirt it. Try it.

mostly being claimed by just a handful of residents.
In the old days these good folks would have been told quickly ‘STFU’ or leave .
Business and Jobs were # 1 then . Thats the way it should be long as the business isn’t dumping paint in the water supply .just saying !

The multimillionaire John Edwards was full of it, talking about “Two Americas.”

But more and more there are “Two Californias.”

The liberal coastal elites and everybody else inland.

"David Tran, the Owner and CEO of Huy Fong, and a refugee from Communism, says he escaped from Vietnam almost 35 years ago to be free of the Communist Government there and its many intrusions."

If he moves from California to Texas, he will once again be a refugee from Communism and its many intrusions.

Dems definitely had a successful plan in Colorado. I can’t find the article about how they use media to write false articles just before election. The charges are false but swing voters at a critical time.
This article covers other aspects of the plan.

Copying Oregon, we used the expression “Don’t Californicate Colorado.”

It didn’t work. Joggers in neon Spandex populated the back mountain roads, having bought low-sold high in the LA real estate boom, relocating to “God’s Country.” (Credit Merle Haggard paraphrase.)

They didn’t only bring real estate profits, they also brought progressive politics. “In 2004 Republicans held both Senate seats, five of seven congressional seats, the governor’s mansion, the offices of Secretary of State and treasurer, and both houses of the state legislature. After 2008 the exact opposite was true: replace the word Republicans with Democrats.” (Amazon blurb re: the book How the Democrats won Colorado.)

I’m sure he can find a very good farmer in the Rio Grande Valley who can grow those peppers year-round. And cheaper than anyone or anywhere in CA.

Upside, Texas gets businesses and therefore revenue, more popluation and therefore more voting power in congress. Downside, Texas gets a lot of California liberals moving along with the company who don’t have the brains to realize that their liberal policies are what forced them to move in the first place. If they’d leave their voting habits in Cali it would be fine, but they don’t.
