No state is more committed to the right-wing austerity agenda than
Oklahoma, where I grew up. Since oil revenues are down, Oklahoma public
officials are relentlessly cutting public programs to balance their
budget. In contrast to the well-funded educational system when I grew up
(although not as good as Pat Brown's California) Oklahoma currently has
difficulty retaining teachers they have employed. Teachers can make
something like $10K more just by moving to Arkansas.
Nevertheless, the relentless, well-funded babbitry says the beatified "job creators" are fleeing blue states like CA for those business-friendly red states.
This little tidbit contradicts that:
