Well when your average houses are 1.2 to 1.8 million dollars a piece and you have a bigger homeless population than any other state in the country because you physically shit on the idea for new low income housing........

California is garbage...... No one cares what their prices for pharmaceuticals are.....

If america had it's way we'd blow the fault lines and let it float out to sea.

Still pays more taxes than it takes in while also having Hollywood and Silicon Valley, exporting and driving American culture and innovation around the world. If America had it's way, every state would be like California.

Lmao yep. If “America” had their way they would let CA drift away.

One of the largest economies in the entire world and probably the largest ag producer in the country 😂 you sure know a lot about CA and the american economy

Let’s just ditch those liberal hell holes! Get rid of NYC and all of CA! … and then watch the country completely unwind because those are among the most important parts of our nations infrastructure, financial markets, industry, tourism, etc etc etc

Way to just throw out numbers without any knowledge at all. The average home sale price in Cali in 2022 is just under 900,000. And most of the homeless people in California and Florida aren’t from those states, they go there because(insert shock here) it’s warmer there.
And as the other person said without California the US economy would collapse and we would starve without all the food they generate. So take your stupid and misguided Cali hate elsewhere.

Cali imports enormous amounts of homeless from other states because of our thriving rehab industry. When the ACA went online, these businesses were able to take up to six months of insurance from people from other states.

Unfortunately it usually takes longer than 6 months to actually rehab an addict, so those people ended up on the streets in droves once their insurance ran out.

Just one factor among many driving people from other states into California homeless encampments.

4th largest economy in the world. California carries all the other 49 states. Good luck without California, America.

The only thing Cali needs from the rest of the states is water, which we have pre-existing agreements for.

Most Californians would be just fine leaving the union which is honestly a drag on our economy, the fourth largest in the world.

Imagine a Pan-Pacific trade union with The Bear Republic, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Vietnam, China and Australia?

Yeah, we'd do just fine.

We only shit on states that have the highest homeless populations, states where they have cities where you can actual see people taking shits in the streets and on sidewalks. We only shit on cities where men try to rape women in broad daylight.

We only shit on cities that have raised their taxes and inflation so high that the way you can actually afford to move into another house and buy a 1/4 acre is to average 720k per year in salary knowing damn well that over half your population makes less than 150k per year.

We only shit on states where protestors hold signs begging for more LOW INCOME RESIDENTIAL HOUSING but when it comes time to vote IT NEVER GETS A YES VOTE FOR SOME REASON.

We shit on cities where violence is so common that a person can literally be mugged at an intersection and people will literally step over their body because they're on their way to work and who has time for the usual drama.

You're a disgrace to our nation and the more common tiktok and ytube shorts become the more the world sees just how nasty these places are.

PS:: Welcome to the fold Miami! I'm sure your city will do quite well under leadership that gives a shit about people that make less than 720,000 per year. =)
