Look at ALL the really stupid, brainwashed sheep with masters degrees, PHD’s, they are EVERYWHERE!! Not ONE OUNCE of common sense, NOT ONE OUNCE of critical thinking, TOTAL group think!! What amazes me is not how they became rich BUT how so many of them were so easily brainwashed!! You can become rich being focused on ONE THING that is your business and how to get BIG FAT government subsidies!!

If California wasn’t California I would love to move back. When I lived there it was great. Good schools, nice weather, beautiful scenery, started my first business there. Then the democrats took over.

Of course there are two issues. One is the question of how many of these [mutli-] millionaires make their money off of the grift that is particularly available in these areas. Second, what fraction of them are so rich that they can live in super well off enclaves in this places and the endemic societal rot doesn't affect them.

Does this include the principals in a family owned plumbing parts manufacturer in Toledo Ohio?

California is great for the rich and New York City is a paradise for the super-rich.

Who wouldn’t want an estate in the wine country or on the coast if they could handle or even enjoy liberal government and afford it?

I bet San Francisco is still great for many of the super-rich there.

In other words, these are millionaires who want to be taxed more.

But have yet to send a single check to the IRS above what they absolutely have to.

Hypocrites.

Total fool. Higher taxes do nit equate to cleaner air & water, better schools, etc.

CA schools suck. The water isn’t any cleaner than anywhere else and the air quality sucks.

I’m a Freeper living in California. If you’re making money remotely, don’t have a business, live in a gated enclave, it’s not bad. The state taxes are offset by Florida’s high home insurance costs. Property taxes low compared to Texas. Home prices are consistently rising since 2007 is another bonus.

Better Schools?!?!? Don’t make me laugh

California always ranks low in schools

Kids who love from CO to Missouri have to go into remedial classes to catch up because of how bad California schools are.

I have to disagree with his air quality assessment. CA, especially LA is known for its smog, and the smell of human feces in LA, SF, and Sac count as well. Meanwhile, there is so much rain and high wind in Fl that bad air doesn’t stick around. Of course, there are exceptions in every state, but in general, the air is better in Florida.

I like to think that what I’m getting in return for it–cleaner air and water, better schools, better parks, better hospitals–is more than worth it.

Well, let us know if the reality matches what you think you are getting.

Does anybody believe he packed up his homestead and business to move to CA without big dollar tax planning? Ny guess is he lives in Florida for 7 months of the year and CA for 5 months or so...

So they find one rich ahole and make him the Rule, Not the Exception, or at least they tried.

Just because you are rich doesn’t mean you are smart or sane. However I bet this clown doesn’t live in a tent in Downtown L.A. or SF or San Diego.
