 ►   FLORIDA RANKS NUMBER 2 as the best state in the USA to do business, according to a 2018 study by Chief Executive Magazine and website. They surveyed 500 CEO’s across the country about the best and worst states for business. The survey measures tax and regulatory regime, workforce quality and attractive  living environment. Texas was number 1 and California last of all.  To nobody’s surprise,  Florida beat Texas in the quality of living environment category.  Beaches beat oil rigs!  California came last due to its taxes and regulatory issues for business.
