The state is not sustainable for the long term on the course that it is on. Major electricity supplies from Arizona/Nevada Hoover dam, water aqueducts and pipes everywhere that would make the Romans look like pikers, IMO.

Mulholland raped every water source in California to feed LA - for what? Millions of bleeding heart liberals and millions of illegals?

As for coal, it’s soooooo bad, huh? You’re believing the Eco-hype.

No, I think not using coal is stupid. I was merely pointing out that we don’t have coal-fired plants here in California. As for the water, the big culprit here has always been Los Angeles, and we in the northern part of the state hate what they’ve done in the past to satiate their desire to grow using someone else’s resources. California would be a better place with a much smaller population in the Los Angeles Basin. And it may be coming because the water entitlements from the Colorado River are going away as Arizona takes what they were legally to get from the original contracts that were set up when Hoover Dam was built. And they’ve been cut off from large portions of the Owens River water because they were killing Mono Lake.
I seldom go to LA, but the decay there is striking. If we cut off the state at the south end of the Central Valley, and controlled our own resources, LA would wither.
