Glad we left “The Golden State” 22 years ago now. Friends and family still there are buying standby generators to try to keep their frozen and refrigerated foods and medicines from spoiling during extended power cuts. Hello Venezuela.
Thank God Almighty for the electoral college.
The worst thing that happened to California was the death of the defense industry there. All those engineers and clear thinkers became unemployed and moved out leaving a large majority of academics, techies and other liberals and hanger ons. The good people outside the cities were stuck, you cant roll up your farmlands or ranches so they are slowly being swallowed alive.
My heart hurts for them.
