1) What matters more, effective tax rate or regulations? Texas collects more than California in taxes from corporations (on average). California regulates more. There are better places to go than either of these.

Better than Fox News: fake and just not even close... :)

Of course, this data is not for corporate taxes, but rather state taxes in general.

You do realize where these people moving into Texas are coming from, right?

They're privately owned and operated, and are generally for-profit. Yeah, here in OH we regulate the % of revenues they take for "management fees", but they get around that in a heartbeat.

Anyone know any more?

Understandably, Toyota may have wanted to wait until employees were notified of changes before yesterday's report that Toyota is moving to Texas. Or maybe they wanted to soften the blow by letting some news leak?

The 2015 Jeep Renegade has an optional targa top, but what if you want more freedom? More beach buggy experience? Less UV protection? Renegades can take it.

Ooooh... I'm from Ohio - can I be my own distrac..... SQUIRREL!

My thoughts exactly...

There's a neighborhood that these homes remind me of near my office in Cincinnati. The homes could be spectacular, but instead half of them are crumbling, a quarter are in poor shape, and only about a quarter are kept up. Then because of the bad neighbors, the whole neighborhood ends up being cheap housing. If they…

To be fair, the starting price for the auctions is $1000, but the properties will likely sell for significantly more (my guess is $15k-ish based on their past auctions). The buyers get these without ever seeing the inside, so they don't know what all will be needed to get the buildings to code, which they must do…

To be fair, these fools have been publicly shamed and probably can't go any lower than they already have.

Sweet Baby Ray's is readily available in the grocery store in Michigan already, and it is priced appropriately for the slop that it is.

First off, it was actually significantly larger than a Civic. Its MSRP was below that of an Accord and above that of a Civic. But you're making the same mistake the writers at C&D made, and the same mistake that numerous other publications make. MSRP is meaningless. The actual price paid is what matters. Honda…

You tell me.

Ok - let's be honest. For manufacturer market share, Toyota is #1 in California. GM and Ford are next, then Honda. For brand market share, it is Toyota, Honda, Ford, Chevrolet.

Sure - but that doesn't address what requirements they put on you to get the $100. Most of the time, these payments are only made IF you buy a competing vehicle. In other words, test drive the Cadillac and if you buy one you get $1,500, but if you buy something else you get $100. If you don't buy anything, you get…

I've always viewed Firestone as fully to blame, after seeing that NHTSA found that the Explorer was no more likely to roll than its competition after a tread separation problem - but the Explorer was much, much more likely to have the trouble-prone Firestones installed, since they came standard from the factory.

"This is our way of way of trying to reach out and get people," he said in a recent interview. "The way to conquest in that super competitive market is to get people's seats in seats." Peffer said qualified drivers who have a registered vehicle are eligible for the payout, which comes in the form of Visa prepaid gift…
