No mention of the real cause - importing poverty-stricken, low-skilled illegal aliens.
That and taxes. Our gas just went up again because of a 12 cent (?) per gallon tax they voted in.
“No mention of the real cause - importing poverty-stricken, low-skilled illegal aliens.”
Yes, the truth of the matter is that absent the heavy influx of illegals from Mexico and all points South, CA’s poverty level would look like most states, probably better.
Our population hasn’t been displaced by illegals, it’s been “supplemented,” and the supplementation has been, for the most part in Southern California.
Take a look:

Five of CA’s 58 counties account for more than 50% of our population, and probably 80%, or more, of our illegals, and all of them are in SoCal. I live in Central Contra Costa County where homes routinely sell for more than $1 million, some, a lot more. No illegals living here, and having lived here for 60 years, I can tell you that the demographics have changed very little.
