Hyper-liberalism thrives in MOST big cities, not just in California. You know that.
Lack of border enforcement happens in Arizona, New Mexico and Texas too only MORE people want to come to California because there are MORE jobs. Get real. People sneak across the Canadian border too but only a few because there aren't so many jobs up there. Yes, illegals go to Canada FIRST then sneak over the Canadian line. What do the Canadians care about borders? They have an open frontier.
High taxes, yep, but nothing compared to New York. New York City has its own income tax.
So, before you shoot off your mouth do some reading first. It's obvious you have some "issues" with the Golden State. 38 million people are here, while MANY states in the midwest and north east and north midwest BLEED people.
Maybe it's just the weather; ice and snow for months and months on end must get old.
Yes, Hyper-Liberalism infects most big cities, but in California the whole state is infected with it. You must know that.
The state is a liberal petri dish. It’s as if someone said, let’s see what happens when we give the Left free reign to do whatever they want. The Unions effectively run California, and the state is bankrupt.
Do I have a problem with California? You bet I do. I grew up in Modesto, one of the cities on the list. That whole Central Valley is in a depression. I escaped to Texas 6 years ago, and thank God I did.
It saddens me to see what the Left has done to my state. Hardly a day goes by that I don’t see yet another reason to be glad I left.
You want me to do some reading? I suggest you read Victor Davis Hanson’s blog on PJ Media. He gives almost a weekly account of the deterioration of the state.
