I live in California and I hate the place, but yes, I would agree there are a lot of great things about California.
To me, that is a lot like saying, there are a lot of great things to like about my nymphomaniac supermodel wife, if only she was a bi-polar meth addict with AIDS.
See that is the rub with California. Oh yeah, it has a lot of great things like climate and scenery and attractions, and even jobs and good pay. It’s just that the escalating tyranny and the oppressive burden they claim on the sweat of your back sort of puts a damper on the rest of it.
Putting a concentration camp on the beach in Hawaii doesn’t change the fact it is a concentration camp.
An oppressive socialist utopian hellhole that taxes your labor into oblivion and crushes you with regulatory restrictions and burdens doesn’t suddenly become freedom just because of good weather and beaches.
Good luck to all of you who love it here and are staying. I hope you are happy. For me, I can’t get out if this oppressive communist hellhole soon enough. I want out of the concentration camp, even if the downside is a bit of overcast and rain.
