Porn Industry Leaving California

A lot of jokes will be made about this and a lot of pundits will take the opportunity to hurl tomatoes at their favorite villain but pornography is a bell whether. In some situations (VCR sales) pornography has driven the trends.  In this particular case, they are followers.

Industry has left California for Oregon, Nevada and Arizona. Nevada has done especially well because they have no income tax. They might do even better if 80% of the state's real estate was not federally owned.

It's an age old phenomenon. Industry leaves for the greener pastures of lower production costs which just happened to coincide with lower taxes, lower fees and a lower degree of regulation. TV production and high tech might not be far behind.
