Texas is the state with the Best Business Climate and Virginia tops the chart of Cybersecurity Leaders in Business Facilities’ 16th Annual Rankings Report, released this week.
Texas, BF’s 2019 State of the Year, adds to its unmatched portfolio of top awards and rankings from the magazine, including a record four State of the Year (SOTY) awards.
“Texas has established its hegemony in an impressively diverse array of growth sectors. A rapidly expanding skilled workforce, solid infrastructure, readily available renewable energy and a vibrant innovation ecosystem are just a partial list of the must-haves TX puts on the table for corporate site selectors,” BF Editor in Chief Jack Rogers said.

Virginia, which has taken a leadership position in cloud computing and cybersecurity, edges out Texas this year as the top-ranked state in BF’s Cybersecurity Leaders ranking.
“Virginia has everything it needs to defend our cyber crown for years to come,” Rogers said. “VA has established itself as the data center capital of the known universe, with a digital infrastructure second to none. Its institutions of higher education are training the next generation of cybersecurity professionals.”
“It also doesn’t hurt to be home to the HQ of the military-industrial complex,” Rogers added.

Virginia is just lucky that it shares a border with DC.

It's hilarious that Republicans put so much stock into these types of publications. All they do is pat people on the back for giving out handouts.
It'd be like Silicon Valley companies ranking the bigotry of states. You going to put much stock in that?

“Handouts” that entice companies to move in creating tons of jobs for the local population and/or bringing people into the population thus increasing tax revenue, economic spending, etc in said area.
You act like tax breaks for these companies only benefit the city/state in terms of bragging rights.

Not easy to get permits in Texas these days, even with already existing mfrs needing to add on

They don't seem to get that the consumer bears the tax burden as it gets passed along in price.
Mississippi definitely understands this.

You could say the same thing about most handouts.
You could air drop $100m in loose bills over virtually any town and it would stimulate the economy and "create" jobs there. More than $100m in "economic activity" would occur.

Tax breaks=handouts
My money not your money
My labor not your labor
There is no socialist creep in the US!
