“California a once great state, has deserted you.”
CA has not deserted anyone, those running it have. Love my state, hate those who are running it into the ground.
CA, in every measurable way, is superior to almost all other states. More natural resources, more deep water ports, more oil, more gold, more board foot, ect, ect, ect.
But those on this site, along with all so called republicans, have written us off? Why? If the GOP could win CA, they would never loose another presidential election. Why no fight?
I understand all that, believe me. The fact is however California governing legislature and executives and courts have chosen to set aside American Law where it doesn’t suit them. By disregarding the law, they have in effect left the union.
I know about red counties and fantastic California conservatives. Such great conservative Americans are the largest supporters of Free Republic in both numbers and funds. You have lost and can never regain control unless there is a massive earth quake that destroys San Francisco or LA.
So, the state having determined that it sneers at the federal government has in effect left. It still takes tax money but disregards large sections that are the real Americans. If the state is gone, then the real Americans are in effect California tax slaves having no say in their destiny.
