“We are doomed to ride this train all the way to the ground before there is any hope for change.”
Contained within California, let it happen.
My interest is not letting the infection spread across the rest of the US while California drowns in its cesspool it created.
The successful are leaving that state in droves, as I did a few years ago.
Unfortunately most of the successful people who flee California take California with them which is why California is the not-so-far term future of the USA. Mr. and Mrs Successful Entrepreneur get out of Cali to escape the ruinous taxes and the soaring crime rates and the smothering regulation of everything and go to, say, Arizona. They love the new freedom and security they find there. Then one day over coffee after breakfast, Dick says to Jane, “ You know, this place is almost perfect. It only needs a few more services...” And they vote. And they donate to candidates.
