How long before Cali follows the example of their model the former DDR (East Germany) and builds a wall to keep the wage earners/tax payers in?

The state and local governments will compensate for the outflow by imposing more ad higher restrictions on land use and housing.

Good friend of mine is closing his California multi-generational family business, and moving it to another state.

Why?

Taxes, regulations, and ever-increasing bureaucratic interference. He’s getting out while he still can.

“And, Liberalism is a mental disease with no cure.”

G.K. Chesterton called it a mental disease over a hundred years ago.

However, my opinion is that all leftist thought, from the limousine liberalism of a George Clooney to the murderous horrors of Mao, Stalin, and Pol Pot, is of and from Satan. Leftism is a contaminant in the human cognosphere, not a natural component of it.

Satan is smarter than we are, and he never sleeps. Those over whom he has the most influence are like maniacally evil energizer demons.

Every once in a while one of them escapes, as David Horowitz did, but who knows how or why?

Anyway, Satan knows that leftism is bad for humanity. That’s why he invented it, and that’s why he flim-flams those he can into trying to force it on us all.

“I contend it’s primarily related to the import of 3rd world culture and general lawlessness.

The native born just can’t take it anymore.”

AND you can’t arm yourself to defend against that lawlessness.

They move to Texas and bring their lib ideas. They also cause property taxes to skyrocket.

Or in Tennessee. That’s where we went when we fled SoCal in 2015.

My concern now is that Nashville is getting too popular with celebutards. The country music crowd is fine, but the wildly overpaid narcissists from Hollywood are starting to flock there.

It’s worrying that Marsha Blackburn doesn’t have a double digit lead over the dem.

"Why are so many people leaving California?"

Does that question really need to be asked?
I'll answer it anyway:
"Democrat Party control of the state government."
(And control of the major cities and counties too.)

Now, try to argue that pot doesn’t cause brain damage.

...and I’ll argue the state shouldn’t even be trying to “maximize” tax receipts. It should be doing the minimum necessary. The Laffer Curve makes a good point that lowering or raising tax rates my not have the desired effect but the government always assumes that maximizing should always be the goal.

In recent years, the number of people moving away from the state of California has greatly outnumbered the number of people moving into the state.

So why are housing prices skyrocketing?

BS!!!

One can legally purchase and own the Mossberg 590S, Ruger Mini-14, just about any kind of pistol and the Marlin 336...and just about any kind of high powered rifle, to include the M1A.

Simple : Sane People dislike communists and other murderous parasites running their lives.
