If its business environment is so wildly unfriendly shouldn't that have solved the housing prices issue as all the jobs and therefore the desire to relocate should have long since faded?

I don't agree with the law and yet I don't think any of the problems you listed have simple solutions. For example all the ways imaginable to address ridiculous housing prices would seem to negatively effect those who presently own houses who have basically all the wealth. How do you propose to fix THAT.

Few things lag, these things have a long cycle. I come a state in India which used to be richest 60 years ago then we voted in the communists. Now we rank in the bottom five, after all parties trying to out left each other.

People have been saying this about CA at least the last few decades some lag there.
