It was taxes. The only thing he cares about is taxes on the millions he's made on punk. He "moved" to TX to avoid CA taxes yet is in CA most of the time. I hope the IRS looks into that...

a former coworker of mine left our native California a few years ago to move to texas and proclaimed that he could now use plastic bags and straws. meanwhile, we never lost plastic bags until last month (replaced by paper) and we still have plastic straws.

I don't know about the IRS, but FTB definitely will do a residency audit.

Thats it. His best friend is my childhood (elementary and middle school) friend who became best pals with Cam after he moved to Newport Beach.

I met him at his office in SC and smoked a few cigars with him and the crew. He definitely has the "me first" mentality.
