agreed... I would very much consider moving to Texas if that were to happen.
not going to happen in California, I’m stuck. My daughter lives here, and it’s hard for me to leave her..
I would really think it through however... what is left of this country? I don’t recognize it and I don’t think it can be saved.
I need to think about 3 things: my family, where the jobs are located, and freedom.
I have a real problem with parents who will not move from their grown kids, especially when they are up against high costs of living on small amounts of Social Security.
Those kids can get a job transfer in the blink of an eye. Then what? You are stuck there, or you are “moving also to follow your kids”.
We are not traveling in covered wagons or on horseback anymore. You can visit very easily, even on Greyhound.
Most of today’s Social Security recipients do not have the funds to pay for higher costs of living in California, deal with the crime & gangs & illegals, etc, etc.
Let the kids with higher pay scales come to visit you-—and YOU GO where it is financially more beneficial to you.
There are plenty of choices——I have traveled the country alot in my 74 years. I cannot afford to live in the house I bought in May of 1966 in the San Fernando Valley-—even under Prop 13. I left So Calif in 1993 & I left the state in Dec 2004.
Don’t miss it. Only considering moving again now because of family member with health issues & I need to be closer to him.
