The Big One could leave 250,000-400,000 quake refugees in California. Where will they go?

Yep.

But a really big one in the LA area could easily lead to a million or many more refugees. The government-dependent bad characters would scatter to states with the best welfare or to those with the best criminal opportunities.

I would. But they’re not flaming liberals.

Canada, Mexico, or just get on a boat and head to wherever. Leftist Californians have already ruined too many previously good states.

Right wing Californians are welcome anywhere in the USA.

Zuckerbergs acreage in Kauai could handle thousands. They could use his bathrooms.

The cost of recovery from a significant earthquake in Los Angeles or San Francisco creating a million refugees could exceed a trillion dollars. California and the progressive left will demand the federal government assume the cost. This might be the tipping point forcing the federal government into bankruptcy. If a Democrat government is in power at the time, there will certainly be huge increases in taxes.

It “offends” me watching those foreigners holding their BS sign while waving OUR flags.

Don't fall for the ruse. Its just a tactic so as not to trigger the normies.

No, because they aren’t criminals.

They can even have color TVs and evaporative coolers.

... but they’ll have to buy their own underwear.

Good thinking. I’d bet his big mansion could hold at least a thousand illegals. And the pool could serve as an emergency toilet. Gotta be diverse and tolerant and COEXIST.

Except the US paid Mexico for all those territories including Texas which they conveniently forget.

Imagine if the Russkies get the same idea about Alaska.

A couple of hand grenades would break up that little fiesta.

No housing available in Idaho. Try Portland or Seattle.

I hear there is some very affordable land near the Lelani Estates neighborhood. Once the new eruptions stop and the lava cools, that is.
