RE: The greatest weather in the world!!
Sure, there are lots of places with some of the best weather in the world. Many in South America and Africa.
California has been Ruined by its crazy politics (including several political dynasty or royalty families) ...
almost every aspect of life there is Hell compared to how nice it used to be
a terrible shame
Meanwhile, California is literally the only state, one of fifty, where Hillary Clinton performed better in 2016 than Obama did in 2012. They're the exact opposite of the other 49 states now.
Exercise makes your lungs burn because So California is a bowl shape for smog. Not good.
even the best city in the state, san diego, stank. literally. and that was in 1990.
“Also the asinine law regarding plastic bags should be mentioned.”
And they brought that stupidity with them to Austin and feel quite at home with it.
Many Californians populating other states don’t seem astute enough to understand why CA’s boat is sinking, even though that is why the left, and are attempting to drill the same holes in their new states.
Thanks for the motivation!
I will be outta here in a few weeks myself. 😄
Move to New Mexico (Eastern California or California ‘Lite’)
30-35 years ago, you might have been correct. When I first came her in 1981, there were smog alerts almost everyday in the summer. The smog level was actually a part of the weather forecast. And you could not see the mountains for the smog.
I will have to give the enviro-whackos (and all of us for paying higher gas prices) credit for cleaning up the air. Now, almost everyday you can see the mountains and there really isn't a smog problem. I haven't heard of a smog alert in many many, years. Sure, 1 or 2 days a year in the summer it is bad. And no, I wouldn't want to go jogging downtown LA, but it has gotten way better. I live in Huntington Beach, and there is NEVER any smog.
Look, there are many problems with CA, and the whole state could be overhauled. It could be a lot better. But most of the problems listed in 1-16 above do not have an everyday, or any effect on me. The weather does, and for me, makes Huntington Beach an ideal place to live.
It seems the best way to escape collectivist bulls*** is to prosper in some God forsaken hellhole or at least someplace that appears so. Then... DO NOT ADVERTISE the prosperity.
That’s what’s so attractive about the (cough) insufferable miserable desert wasteland that is Nevada. The only major parts that have metastasis of Californianoma to them have a river through it or a zillion gallons of water piped to it (Reno and Vegas).
At the minimum a redstater should consider anyplace that is incompatible with sleeping outside for a portion of the year. Nevada has a kind of lottery like winter weather where it’s liveably cold in the winter sprinkled with short spots of Siberia vacationing there. I’ve slept in the bed of the truck one weekend and 6 days later it was -24 degrees at night. While I’m pretty sure I could survive that, most people accustomed to dwelling under a freeway and filling their caloric needs from a dumpster are probably not going to last many of those.
Have a buddy retired at 55 worked for the parks dept in a Bay area city since he was 25 - $76,000 per year living in the south of France not too far from the Rivera, double of avg income of his village.
Return California to Mexico.
California has problems, no question.
But, where exactly is the best place to live? How do you choose? What criteria do you use to decide?
The subject of out of control liberal states and places to avoid has come up on this site before.
And, many people have said, they live in some liberal place (fill in the blank, Mass. Illinois, Calif. NY, NJ). And discuss how bad certain things are.
Then when questioned as to why they don’t move, they cite issues such as family ties, elderly relatives, life long friends, job situations or children’s schooling which would make relocating to some theoretical preferable place very difficult for them personally.
All of could make lists of the 16 reasons to avoid living in West Virginia, or Utah, or North Dakota, or New York, or any given state. All places have their good points and bad points, don’t they?
It all depends on your criteria for judging.
For those of you thinking about moving to the west coast...please forget Washington State too... it rains here all the time.
I am seeing more adverts in Mexican then in English all around San Jose these days. Adverts and business signs. I swear the only signs in Watsonville and Castroville that are in English are road signs these days. Was not this bad 10 years ago.
plus they got all that govt pension money....

a relatives son took over her mothers house in Napa....because he was there before, somehow the house is grandfathered in and he pays about $400 a yr in property tax...

But everything else is right on about this state of brain dead commies.
