Because they are shitholes. Rife with crime, drugs, unemployable people. It's a disgrace what democrats do when they gain power.

In a soon-to-be-aired episode of Unmuted with Marsha Blackburn, “Shark Tank” investor Kevin O’Leary revealed that he does not invest in Democrat-led states because of their left-wing policies that hurt businesses.

“I'm not trying to get involved in the partisanship of this statement. Just a fact, I don't invest in New York, I don't invest in Massachusetts, I don't invest in California. In my mind, those are examples of states that are uninvestable because of bad policy,” O’Leary explained in the episode, which was shared with Townhall.

“So, I’m looking for the path of least resistance. If you make it hard for me to make money, I just take my money and go somewhere else. So, in America today we have this giant competition of states, which is really incredible. The states that have lowered taxes, reduced regulatory environments are getting all the spoils. That's where people are putting their money,” he added. “You see these phenomenal success stories like Texas and Florida and now North Dakota and others that have made it easy for businesses to grow. Anytime you throw resistance at them, they just go somewhere else.”
