california is losing its wealth. they're going to states like nevada, idaho, and texas. how the explain texas? over the last 10 or 12 years, texas has had about 40% of all the net new jobs in the united states. that is an amazing performance. 40% of all the new jobs have been in one state. it is a note tax state. it is a light regulations state. it is booming. one last point i will make is that one thing i am looking at right now is that the blue states are getting lower and the red states are getting -- the blue states are getting bluer in the red states are getting redder. in illinois, things are so bad that people want rod blagojevich back. [laughter] we raised our corporate tax by over 50%. the corporate rate is now a highest in the midwest and the third highest in the country. mitch daniels said it well when he said being in neighboring states to illinois is like living next to the simpsons. it is true. it is in an incredible a rut. taxes affect behavior, they certainly do. the last point is that these men states -- red states -- he is one of the nine states with no income tax at all. tennessee will grow fas
