Any other country this would be considered treason.
The free sh*t army votes for more free sh*t. That is how democrats stay in power. Why they don't care about illegals voting. Why they crush the law abiding and working class.
And yes...it's a great article!!
Just another day in Progressive Utopia.
I feel sad for Victor. I’m reading his “Carnage and Culture” now. Maybe he can work and addendum from California into the book
Anti Cow Fart Machines
$1,000 ticket for throwing a frisbee on an LA County beach
Get sent home from school for wearing American flag t-shirt
LOTS of other stuff....
Sounds like VDH is going to have to either move or go Mad Max.
Forty years ago California had a school and college system the envy of other states, an economy that seemed unstoppable, great jobs up and down the wage scale, and for the most part was a fantastic place to live.
Then the democrats became more and more powerful.
Now much of California is following democrat run cities like Detroit and Baltimore into the toilet.
In 2016 there were zero Republicans running for statewide office and no GOP candidates in nine of California’s congressional districts. At the state level, Investor’s Business Daily reports, six districts had no Republicans for the state senate and 16 districts had no Republicans for the state assembly.
Insult to injury:
The San Joaquin, Sacramento and Klamath rivers dump MILLIONS of gallons of fresh water into the ocean every hour. A pipeline feeding California lakes and the central valley could turn the state into a garden and end droughts forever, while also generating hydro electric power along the way.
...But, NOOooooo!
What has Moonbeam and the leadership decided to do with $100 BILLION dollars? They're building a bullet train to Bakersfield ...BAKERSFIELD!
$100 BILLION DOLLARS (and counting)
During the sixties and seventies, the then Golden State was reputed to have the best schools in the USA.
BTTT
Compared to Bakersfield, Grass Valley is very hip.
Ya got me there.
Wow looks like a quaint little town with a style from back of the Gold Rush.
Unfortunately the cost is making a lot of em move east and turning AZ purple because the dumbas**es bring their voting patterns with them so they end up with the 2 morons McCain and Flake and it’s just going to get worse.
The Bear Flag Republic is dying a death by a thousand cuts and millions of illegals and insane politicians. I can never go home again, its gone. Still have family there but they can’t afford to move out, their property has lost value due to the barrio-ghettofication of their neighborhoods. Makes me sick in my soul...

Same here. Too late to save California but maybe there’s a slim chance we can save a good part of the rest of the country.
Grass Valley and especially Nevada City just north of it are havens for the 1960s San Francisco flower children generation. Some went to live there early on and many more retired there after working lives in the Bay Area. They are cute towns and nice to visit but very much liberal anomalies in the general political landscape of the northern Sierra and its foothill regions.

He chooses to have his feet in both urban and rural California cultures. He could leave his family farm if he wanted to. VDH the historian probably recognizes that he has a unique perspective from which to chronicle California's decline. He has maintained his professional dedication at considerable personal cost.
