“California will quickly look very stupid after other states open up and get moving again.”

Actually, CA has made some other states look stupid.

Very low per capita infections and dead.

Statewide, all State rules are nothing but admonitions. It’s not enforced, it’s “do your best”. And it’s that way because they started early.

Of course there are some cities and counties with more strident rules.

But in my town it’s almost normal now. Not quite, restaurants and bars are closed except for take out. Car repair, all home supply and grocery is open. And bunch of stuff that’s not technically kosher, because it’s enforced at the county and municipal levels as needed.

there are vast swathes of CA where absolutely nothing has changed. Geographically, at least 3/4 of the state didn’t even smell a fart.

Financially, better than that. There was like $10bil in the rainy day fund. Years of surplus, banked.

While I know it’s cool to hate CA, I think a lot of it is jealousy.

I think State of CA will have a budget problem very soon... Other states will have the same problem as well...Because of this shutdown, less tax is being collected.

I am sure that Governor will propose raising taxes...How about Proposition 13? Governor is not a fan of Prop 13...He will argue that Prop 13 should be abolished because of coronavirus crisis.

Talk about jealous take a look at what LA mayor is gong to provide for his residents. Will issue $1,500.00 prepaid debit cards to anyone that needs them to include illegals. Makes Trump's $1,200.00 check look miserly. 😀
