This is what happens when the inmates get control of the asylum! The lunacy is palpable! It is starting to look like there is no sanity left in that state. The suicidal tendencies of the morons that have been elected at all levels (local/state and federal) have the same insane outlook. Do they actually believe this is going to turn out well for any of them? If they do, then they are truly delusional and should have their meds adjusted!
I've heard and read the same complaint made about New England libs who move, often due to retirement, to Florida and other Southern states where winter is warmer. Their indoctrinated minds just can't cope with freedom.
Dob, the flip side is they then take their poor management as "the results of Global Man Made Climate Change" and as an excuse to pass ever more crazy laws. The article cites their crazy laws as a cause for a reduction in farming and production, and Kalifornia was THE state for that, growing fruits and veggies for a lot of the country, even in winter. Now, take it a step further, and what do you have (after you get rid of the pesky farmers)? More water for the cities, where the people who, if finally pissed enough, might out vote the Dumbocraps. Get rid of a few evil farmers, and save you a@@ at the same time. Nice....
Save a tree huh. Overgrown forest mentioned thrice. Please draw your own conclusion.
The Sierra Nevada Conservancy recently published a new report update detailing the dire state of California forests. The combined effects of bark beetles and drought on overgrown forests in the state resulted in about 83 million trees dying between 2014 and 2016. Overgrown forests facilitated the spread of bark beetles. Trees became more vulnerable as the drought reduced their ability to secrete resin to ward away these insects. Additionally, the drought, warmer temperatures, and overgrown forests fueled large, catastrophic wildfires.
Typical leftist result.... ruin what you claim to be helping.
Although, the article also illustrates aptly why just working on total votes is a non starter, a lot of Kalifornia is like Oregon, rural areas are conservative, urban democrat, and that is because the democrats are perceived as Santa Clause 365, that gives them incredible power against the rural self reliant types, who have to pay for it all.
I live in California and know for a fact that this article is only touching on the issues. The left has hijack California and brain wash the rest of the sheeple. It’s amazing to watch; even the electorate is in lock step with the left agenda:
The people of California has recently voted to release the inmates the committed “non-violent” crimes like rap of underage children. My small town had to fight a judge from the bay area where they wanted to place a convicted child rapist in our town. The convict was being released because of the law that the California voters approved. We only won because the judge felt that the convict would be harassed in our community. If you like living next to convicted felons, California has a community just right for you with a rapist.
California voted to ban plastic bags. Now we can’t have a bag to take our groceries out to the car. Here is the funny part, the law went into effect the night the law past. The lines in the grocery store were incredible, I can tell you how many times I heard “I voted for this law but I had no idea”. I said I read the law and maybe you will next time yourself. A few people complaining about the situation obviously voted for the law, I was a little more direct. One poor idiot threw a tantrum in the middle of the grocery store after he was complaining about the situation and I responded that the idiots that voted for the law because they didn’t read the law. Started to throw is food around the store after purchase. I’m assuming he voted for the law… If you like to carry grocery bags into the store, you should move to California…
California restricts tobacco and e-cigarettes but allows recreational pot. They just increased tobacco tax by another $2.00 dollars. If you smoke pot, move to California…
California forces alternative life style education of your children, removing the rights of the parents to op they children out of the education. They have an on campus “club” to promote this lifestyle and children that attend are asked what sex they think they are… They are offered 16 different sexes to pick from. If you don’t see a problem with this, you should move to California…
California allows for people to use the bathroom or locker room that they self-identify as in that particular moment. If you can’t see the problem with this, you should move to California.
I could go on but I must get back to work so I can pay the way of the other Californians. Once you all move to California, I’ll leave.
The bigger problem are those Cali refugees who are leaving the state for greener pastures. They move in to an area (I'm a Colofornia native) and think it's great. Shortly thereafter, they think, "Wow dude! in Cali we had a law..." and they transform the host area into an over-regulated version of the hell hole they left. This std (state transfer disease ) is not treatable and will kill the host over time. Forget the Mexican border, we need a wall on the eastern border of Cali!
I think the founders set up the Constitution with two features to prevent this: 1. A limited central gov't, leaving power to the states 2. Features to make sure all states had a voice.
We have just eroded and stopped following #1.
Regarding #2, the boundaries are no longer along the state lines. When they founded the country, some states were agricultural and some were industrial. They made one gov't that would work for both. Now the lines are more along urban/rural.
An immediate thing they could do is #1- start following the Constitution. I don't know exactly what to do about #2. My thought is #2 as the founders created it is completely broken, but it wouldn't matter as much if we had kept #1.
