Are People REALLY Fleeing from California?

Of course, there is no science or math behind the map here.  But it fits the narrative that people are fleeing California because of its (you name it) environmental regulation, high taxes, woke ideologies, etc.

Why would anyone want to live in a state that, if it were a nation on its own, would be the fourth largest economy on Earth?  Leads the planet in innovation?  Where someone can ski and surf in the same day?

Better get yer ass down to Texas, the oil-drillin’ and death penalty capital of the world.
