Too eager or too dumb/pig headed to recognize the failure of California’s policies?

It is really very simple.
most our population, indeed the world’s population are idiots.
The smart people expend most their efforts trying to work around them.
We can’t kill them all, they have rights, but they sure are a pain in the butt.

The people whose lives aren’t negatively impacted by such policies - and consequently vote for them - are either: (a) wealthy enough to absorb it (and/or amoral regarding cultural poison) or (b) poor enough that they look to the government to underwrite their standard of living, in which case it doesn’t matter what pain is inflicted on actual taxpayers.

The only problem is a lot of very smart people vote for these failed policies.

That is why I do not understand “migrants” supporting demonrats. And they do. Proof? If they supported republicans the dems would have installed a 70 foot tall 10 feet thick the base 20 feet deep steel wall with a moat filled to the brim with crocodiles with patrols of pit bulls and dobermans and towers with machine gun turrets every one hundred yards unbroken from San Ysidro to Brownsville

The only successes and failures they recognize is how many votes they get.

It’s a religion to them. Whatever wackjob theory the elites in academia can dream up their sheep must follow blindly. They must also contrive the most insulting and degrading invectives to aim at rational people that won’t blindly follow. They use all manner of coercion and propaganda as peer pressure to bring in the more weak minded, and it works/ That’s why I’m just done with these types.

Mostly about Harris and Becerra. Bottom line— once you manage to get into the club, you’re in— and competence has nothing to do with it. That’s life in a one party state.

“The only problem is a lot of very smart people vote for these failed policies.”

should be “The only problem is a lot of very CLEVER people vote for these failed policies.”
Smart implies moral ethics, clever Democrats generally have no moral ethics, only professional ethics.
Moral ethics never change, professional ethics change like sands on a beach.

Nah...each person is a mixture of 4 types:

1) ignorant (don't know the facts)

2) stupid (can't draw the correct conclusion when facts are known)

3) insane (just make up their own facts)

4) evil (know the facts, can draw the correct conclusions, but intentionally lie to achieve their goals aanyway)

Schumer, Pelosi, etc. lean to near 100% evil

The objective is to do as much damage to the major culture as possible. That’s why.

I don’t have to and won’t take the time to read that article.

The answer is, they desire destruction of the United States for a myriad of demonic influenced reasons.

But they certainly all see it as this nation’s undoing and they’re frothing at the mouth to see it done.

They feel they’re immune from the destruction and by the time they realize how wrong they were they will regret it and regret more that it is already too late for correction. Many are brainwashed, many are directly possessed and many are simply useful idiots. Regardless, there are too many of them.

You left out Gib-me-dats. All democrats are greedy crap-heads that want stuff for free, and they'll steal it any which way they can.
