California is pretty much operating on their own....they still think they determine how the rest of the nation goes but things have changed.
There are 3 states I would never live in...California, NewYork and New Jersey/maryland....
If you ever make the mistake of living in New York state, even after you move and reside permanently in another state, NY will continue to demand you pay their state income tax - and will audit you every year.
New York is as much a diseased communist-infected sh*t hole as is California - both are lost causes. All productive people should leave - and let both states suffer total economic collapse. Then we can send in the military to finally rid us of the subversives.
