As a result, many businesses have left the state due to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/these-5-states-have-the-highest-tax-burdens\/\" title=\"These 5 States Have the Highest Tax Burdens\">high tax burdens<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/5-businesses-and-entrepreneurs-that-bolted-from-california-last-year\/\" title=\"5 Businesses And Entrepreneurs That Bolted From California Last Year\">anti-business policies<\/a>, and concerns \u200dover the state&#8217;s &#8220;woke&#8221; \u2064public schools and spiking crime rates. \u200bIn response to the deficit, California Governor Gavin Newsom has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/biden-kills-trump-budget-cuts-totaling-27-4-billion\/\" title=\"Biden Kills Trump Budget Cuts Totaling .4 Billion\">proposed budget cuts<\/a>, including cutting\u2062 funding for \u200blaw enforcement and\u200c criminal justice resources. However, this decision has been heavily criticized as it could lead to more crime and further damage the state&#8217;s already struggling economy. Furthermore, the budget\u200b also allocates funds for various programs and initiatives, such as free alcohol for homeless alcoholics and immigration and equity initiatives, which raises questions about the state&#8217;s priorities.\u2064 The article also includes a message from The Western Journal staff asking for donations to\u200b continue their fight against Big Tech and the elites who \u200cwant to shut them down.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<header> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/commentary\/\">  Commentary <\/a>   <span> <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/author\/remmanuel\/\">  <\/a> <\/p>\n<p> <span>   By <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/author\/remmanuel\/%20\"><span>Rachel M.
