I live in CA rather than Texas because I expect the state to take some of the wealth we create with the common infrastructure we’ve built like excellent public education etc and reinvest it in our communities.

That’s why so many companies chose to be here and have their highest paid positions here too.

Other communities in other states are welcome to bend over backwards to enthusiastically attract our tablescraps and feel like it’s a win to their communities to have them. But they don’t get to expect to be taken seriously if they tell us to change how we run our state to be more like them.
