    Oh come on. You don't think that California isn't almost always on the top or bottom of this list because it's so much more populous than any other state? When you adjust the numbers for population, California's 27th, ahead of AR, RI, IN, TN, CN, AL, MN, OH, HI, MT, NH, GA, MS, ME, AZ, MI, VT, UT, SC, CO, DE, ID, and NE.

    Or perhaps all of these have greater "tax and regulation threats" than California?
