And I’ll bet 99.999% were DEI hires!
Yep. The plan is to end up with 50% of the population working for the government and the other 50% slaving to pay for that government.
When they get close to this ratio all free stuff will be cut off if they do not submit to the slavery. It is going to be a bait and switch to all those who are running there for more free stuff and sanctuary.
CaCaLand has long been a commie trashdump, run to benefit the politicos — of course. The GOP was completely feckless for years. Which is why I left them. Then, the DNC became a super majority, SO EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS IS TOTALLY DELIBERATE BY THE DNC.
...and one ‘token’ straight white guy. ;)
Democrats have taken the most beautiful, resource-filled, and richest state and turned it into a poorly run welfare state.
The bottom line always tells the truth.
California liberals have had a nose ring the democrat party placed to follow the party anywhere for any reason it hasn’t failed yet.
Can someone or some other institution double check these Hoover numbers? They sound really unbelievable. We have to put aside confirmation bias at times like this.
The really sad thing is that (as I understand it) with the exception of LA and SF, the majority of California is reasonably conservative.
Still, Diane Fineswine is gone, Pelosi has one foot in the grave and the old guard like newsome are losing support.
And we saw the influence today’s “celebreties” have!
There is hope.
This is among many many reasons you don’t want Gavin Newsom for POTUS - or Kamala Harris for that matter.
They’d both take their California policies - easy on criminals, out of control homelessness, open borders, driving businesses and productive citizens out of the state, boosting taxes to higher levels along with a war on oil companies (which are also fleeing the state of California), giving illegals free medical care along with everything else.
People have NO IDEA how much of a bullet we dodged electing Trump over Harris. Gavin Newsom would have been given a high level cabinet position, Homeland Security or Secretary of State - and run for POTUS in 2028.
Buying votes.
It was a glorious state to grow up in and get my first business going after college. The writing was on the wall when the last of the Republicans lost. (Arnold didn’t count). I still have family and visiting my old stomping grounds but geesh. I don’t like going anymore.
Imagine Gavin Newsom is our President. America is California. That's when things will get bad.
Newsome is definitely on a roll in this State. For the average folks it really sucks, so don’t be average...
Not sustainable.
People are unable to change it because of ballot and election rigging.
Trump will inevitably have to deal with ‘failed’ California as POTUS.
I have a supplier there who told me he gets frequent contacts from other states suggesting he move the business out of CA.
I have a number of suppliers based in CA. I doubt his experience is unusual.
Private sector jobs have decreased the past nine months in a row.
what was the other 4%?
lawyers and cpas to help taxpayers comply with new laws and regs?
re: the headline - that’s how you take things up a notch from Socialism to Communism.
