Of the top 10 states in the Union with the highest employment rates (most jobs), all are run by Republican governors. Note: California, New York and Illinois are at the bottom of this list and are all steeped in Democrat Utopian Nonsense.

From Chief Executive Mag:  Texas leads the way while Florida edges closer; Arizona and Nevada move up while California sinks lower in CEOs’ estimation. Business leaders see states moving on pro-growth policies faster than Washington.  
The top 12 states on this list are all "right to work states."  All 12 "bottom" states are not "right to work."  In March of '13, Michigan voted in  "right to work" policies,  but was not a free state at the time this list was made.   Anyone see a pattern?
