Californicators destroyed AZ. When I came here in the 90s as a NY refugee, I didn’t bring NY’s problems with me. NY’s problems are partly why I left. It seemed logical.
Californians also moved to and ruined Washington State en masse in the 80’s and 90’s when Microsoft and Starbucks were founded and started on a large scale.
Started hiring, that is.
Yep. I moved here in body and spirit decades ago. Everything was fine until one day while shopping for groceries, I looked around me and there they were: Californians. The thought that ran through my mind was, "Oh no, they found me!"
