  Alan Feld, President and CEO of Sportsmobile, a company specializing in the design and manufacture of 2-wheel and 4-wheeldrive vans, van campers, and cargo vans, employs 50 workers and relies upon some 37 regional suppliers.Feld outlined how in the past year Sportsmobile's sales, employment, and gross profit had increased significantly yet net profits were down 46 percent as a result of a consortium of cost increases - most importantly, a 234 percent hike in workers' compensation rates over the last three years.
  
  "The state of California makes more money off my business than I do," Feld explained in exasperation.Sportsmobile's California facilities pay $31 per $100 in salary while its other facilities in Texas and Indiana pay only $5 and $2 per $100 respectively."Basically, we pay $1000 a day in work comp rates to operate in California," said Feld, "That's money I can't put back into my business."
