The Number of the Day columns published on Ballotpedia reflect the views of the author.
April 12, 2021: Sixty-six percent (66%) of U.S. adults think it’s appropriate for a company to leave a state if another state has a lower cost of living. A Scott Rasmussen national survey also found that 60% say it’s appropriate to leave because the state’s taxes are too high. Additionally, 59% say it’s appropriate to leave if the company disapproves of laws directly affecting the business.[1]
However, just 39% believe it is appropriate for a company to leave a state because it disapproves of laws completely unrelated to its business. When it comes to issues unrelated to their business, more Democratic respondents (47%) than Republicans (36%) consider that an appropriate reason to move.[1]
As for cost-of-living issues, taxes, and laws directly affecting their business, the reverse is true. On those topics, Republican respondents are more likely than Democrats to consider them appropriate reasons to move.[1]
