If you're blind, sure. I guess they'd both feel the same if the maps were embossed. Otherwise, no.. not really. Keep trying though.

So where are the obligations/debt/liabilities?

Cost of living?

[Isitjustme?]

Cost of living?

Red states have the advantage there since no one wants to live in them so the price of real estate doesnt get driven up

I guess those Austin home prices must be my imagination.

My advice to kids: it's not what you earn, it's what you keep - factor in taxes, cost of living and see what's left over. And don't forget what your state has promised - who do you think they're coming after to pay those liabilities?

Texas is and has been #2 for years. California has been #1 for years as well.

Conservatives trying to claim Austin.

even Williamson County voted for Beto.

Red Texas is hilariously envious of Austin and tries to punish it every legislative session while enjoying the break from their respective holes here.

LOL California. For the rich and the poor. No in between.

California's economy is regressing proportional to increasing Dem control.

California is now the world's fifth-largest economy, surpassing United Kingdom
By Associated Press, May 04, 2018

California's economy has surpassed that of the United Kingdom to become the world's fifth largest, according to new federal data made public Friday.

California's gross domestic product rose by $127 billion from 2016 to 2017, surpassing $2.7 trillion, the data said. Meanwhile, the U.K.'s economic output slightly shrank over that time when measured in U.S. dollars, due in part to exchange rate fluctuations.

The data demonstrate the sheer immensity of California's economy, home to nearly 40 million people, a thriving technology sector in Silicon Valley, the world's entertainment capital in Hollywood and the nation's salad bowl in the Central Valley agricultural heartland. It also reflects a substantial turnaround since the Great Recession.

All economic sectors except agriculture contributed to California's higher GDP, said Irena Asmundson, chief economist at the California Department of Finance. Financial services and real estate led the pack at $26 billion in growth, followed by the information sector, which includes many technology companies, at $20 billion. Manufacturing was up $10 billion.

Regressing from the mean. You shouldn't even bother; you're not smart enough.

I don't know if I'd be using New Jersey (#2) and Puerto Rico (#3) on your list in any argument about "best" state economies. My point is show the negatives too - taxes, cost of living, unfunded liabilities matter too.

[CosmicCowboy]

If California is so great and Texas is so bad, why is there negative migration from California and positive migration to Texas?
