One has to love the fact that California will soon become either a third world country...or if they’re lucky...a below sea level part of the Pacific following the big one.

At least the latter possibility will eliminate the drought problem.

Every state that embraces the drug culture will become third world. The users will defend their usage to the end while the walls crumble around them. Itsf no use arguing with a blind man over what color the sky is.

BTW - unintended consequences suck don’t they, CA?

Maybe ... just maybe ... SOMEone is going to step back and look at California from afar and realize ... We are SO F'd up ... and that someone will have the cajones and clout to clean the politics and kick out all the gummint agencies and all those "California, here I come" happy songs ring true once again

Those songs and sentiments are only about 70 years old.

Naaahhhhh

A third world country?
Yah, a third world country that produces twice the agricultural output
as Texas, the next leading agricultural state in the nation. That doesn’t
seem to say much for the rest of the country.
