The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

bighairymike: I for one can hardly wait for him to bring the paradise that is CA to the rest of country.

If California were a nation it would rank in terms of nominal GDP as the world's fifth largest economy, behind Japan and ahead of India, and the second largest economy in the world per capita.

California's economy is the largest in the United States, making up over 15% of the country's economic output.

California is home to some of the world's most valuable technology companies, including Apple, Alphabet, and Nvidia, 11 Fortune 100 companies, and 53 Fortune 500 companies.

But sure, who needs more states like California?
