Every Californian over the age of 50 still thinks that they have a world-class education system.

Ignorance on display.

The vast majority of Teachers private-school their children.

Vast numbers of Californians are leaving California.

Now, the illegal Aliens with children in public schools in California probably agree with that sentiment, but not the Majority of those over 50 years old who are U.S. Citizens.

Add in the Common Core crap and the general opinion of that crap and your assertion looks like plain nonsense.

Heard on Rush today that there is a online map that depicts high quantities of human feces on San Francisco streets.

Went to the redwoods at Christmas time. We drove home through the great Central Valley. Coastal Redwoods, Giant Sequoias, vineyards, gold, fisheries, miles upon miles of fruit trees and nut trees with oil wells working in between the rows, tourism, seaports. I said to my wife, “The only way this state can be going broke is because it’s being run by idiots.”

A state that rivaled countries in GDP is now basically a sh*thole. That is their utopia and they never realize the paradise they aim to achieve fills a toilet.

When you suck the life blood from Americans and legal taxpayers in the state and give to illegal leeches you will always see a rapid multiplication in the number of leeches.

CA is gonna have to figure out how to pay for their illegals and their poverty.

Yep. And they won't be able to do it without diverting resources from one bucket to another. That's the way CA government works. They tell us they need more money to fix roads, then divert the money for non-road purposes. They enact new taxes for one function, then divert it to the general fund and spend it elsewhere. They're down to diverting money from free drug items and sex programs, towards funding for the illegals. Meanwhile roads don't get fixed, but illegals get free services. Democrats always make a bigger mess of things without true solutions.

RE: Can we just agree that California ranks worst in just about every category? Then again, there’s the weather...

Not just great weather, but CA has plentiful jobs. I'm seeing help wanted notices everywhere, but lots of lazy bums who don't want to work. The ones who do take the jobs, are raked over the coals for taxes to support the bums. Homeless everywhere here in CA attracted by good weather and services, but lazy and troublemakers. Last week I saw a woman walk by a homeless guy in front of a store, the bum asking for spare change. She made some remark like "get a job" and then the homeless guy started screaming at her "b*tch!" over and over and almost assaulted her. Needless to say, no sympathy from me for that bum.

I got it. When we build the wall we include the state of CA pinpointed from their southern border with Mexico.

We vet and issue visas to those trusted CA's who did not get out in time.

They sort out their own mess, within their own domain, without any help or money from Uncle Sam.

Roads? Dams? Coastal defense? Electric grid. Whatever.

And if CA splits into three parts, we will accept the parts back that abide by our laws.

That would be the natural progression of things.

You can have a great economy, but if you let half of Mexico in, you are going to have some poverty.

State of Jefferson, northern California outside of the SF Bay Area. Called redneck country, conservative. People don't understand that there are conservatives in California, for the most part pushed out of the big cities. They still exist, but are outnumbered by the cities on the coast.

“A full answer to that question would require terrabytes.”

Not really. The problem with California is that it’s chock full of Californians.

Kalifornia is Venezuela being played out in the US.

Both the state and the country had everything at one time.

Their liberal leaders have p*ssed it all away.
