Out of curiosity, why aren't developers from California allowed?


There are some regulatory and tax implications which we would like to avoid. We have employees in five different states already, and each new state adds some overhead. According to our accountant, CA has an unusually large amount of overhead. I am not an expert in this myself, so I can't go into specifics.
