Is California "the land of the free?"

It depends on who you are. For many, it is more "the land of free (stuff)". For the rest, it is tax soft-slavery.

There’s a mistake in the first paragraph of this article — a number of people in California probably don’t care about the 4th of July or its meaning, or if they do, they think its racist and imperialist. So its just another day off for them. The whole state slid off the deep end into a toxic Hell of extreme environmentalism and political correctness, and the insane spending and productive enterprise bashing that results from a completely unrestrained entitlement state.

As a 4th generation Californian I am weary of
all these California threads. The libtards run
the place,true, but those of us who are
conservatives get lumped in with the lefties by
morons here who think we march in lockstep
with libbies . Let’s see a few libtard NEW YORK
threads at FR. After all, it was NY libs who
brought their bullshit out West that got Cali
going down the wrong path in the first place.

apparently this author, Carson Bruno, does not read Victor Davis Hanson, or he would know the answer already.

No. It’s called the Peepul’s Republik of Kaleephonia for a reason.
