Well, California has become an aberration in the United States. California doesn’t want the United States, and the United States doesn’t particularly want California
When I moved here over 30 years ago, this was a fabulous state. It had about half the population, the towns in the San Francisco Bay Area were actual separate towns, the highways carried the traffic pretty well, there was adequate water in the reservoirs despite a three year repeating rain and drought cycle, and the governors were Republican. Illegal aliens back then weren’t as big a problem. They couldn’t get driver licenses, or vote because no one checked I.D., or be harbored as fugitives by “sanctuary cities.” Racist advocacy groups such as La Raza were no where near as prominent, students didn’t march down the streets behind flags of Mexico demanding that the vote for President be overturned, and we weren’t all identified, divided, and ruled as separate skin colors by our state government.
Its been reconquered by Mexico
Neutron bombs.
From orbit.
....
...I'm afraid we're stuck with them and they are stuck with us.
I'm not going there again.
It’s not all of California; it’s a few enclaves of progressivism and foreign nationals dominance.
It has become Mexifornia.
Unless we get serious and deport ALL the illegal aliens, not just those convicted of other crimes here, the rest of the country will fall as well.
I think San Andreas will decide that
Enact Federal laws that punish those that hire illegal immigrants and those politicians that commit treason by giving them sanctuary.
We need to stop playing this suicidal game and get serious.
Northern California should take advantage of the California secession movement and split from Southern California.
If we can kick out the western third of the state, we would be better off.
The observations parallel my experience from having moved to Cal in the mid 70s. I left in 90 to follow my pay check but by that time the handwriting was on the wall. Besides having Reagan as Governor they even had a republicans as Senators. I recall Hayakowa and Wilson and then came the jerks led by Boxer and Finestein and to be followed by the even worse Harris. Of course whom could forget that other dimbulb Alan Cranston. The only good news is they only have 2% of the senate from that lefty state.
1. Close the borders
2. Deport
3. Remove bennies from illegals
4. Defund sanctuary cities
5. Invalidate DLs for illegals
6. Shut down motor voter in states with DLs for illegals
7. Prosecute foreigners who register to vote
8. Prosecute foreigners who vote
This will help drain CA
The dems own the state, but Latinos will own CA via the ballot box, soon.
Which is OK by me.
... the only way to be sure.
Split the rest up into Jefferson State (North) and two others (Central & South).
The California Secession champions really haven't thought this out.
Even if the Feds were to let California secede (which they won't) - the 49 United States of America would not allow the Pacific Coast to be given up. Similar to Russia not allowing Crimea to go to the Ukraine. So the United States will keep at least San Diego (and the connecting territories to Arizona), and possibly Northward to Long Beach.
Then you have the fact that Eastern California is mostly Red. They'll stay with the United States. And as a parting boot, they may choose to cut off the water to the Coast (or charge a lot more for it).
This fantasy would have a very short shelf life. The Country of California - consisting of the Coast line from Northern LA to Marin County would not be very self-sufficient.
Apply to all states what you prescribe to California and prevent the problem from migrating to other states.
“Unless we get serious and deport ALL the illegal aliens, not just those convicted of other crimes here, the rest of the country will fall as well.”
Exactly right.
