It’s really bad here in California. Homelessness, taxes, housing, crime, politics. It’s getting worse
the nation as a whole
Yup...this is why I'm leaving soon...
It is bad everywhere in the US. We are in such a state of moral decline and spiritual rot that it has become normal for young kids to get slaughtered in schools.
It is also bad in North Carolina, Texas, and Florida. The oligarchs are in control to the point where we are headed for a fascist state. 2024 is likely going to be our last democratic election.
I am leaving the US soon. California is just a microcosm of the current state of the US. Many Americans are escaping to countries like Portugal, Panama, Mexico, Canada.
My dad bought our family home in SF in 1971 for 48k. It is now worth 2.7 million but looks like it should cost 48k. The cost of living in California is beyond belief. The cost, the traffic, the homelessness! This is not inflation. This is madness.
yup these shacks are going for 2-3 million. its just sad.
With inflation $48k was around $330k in todays dollars.
@@NN-pe6ip good point
Still a lot but not bad since it might be in a prime area and income was spot on spankin’ for the time. In the Philippines (now) housing is rising but a not as bad. Php 3 million for a reasonably sized 3 bedroom + guess house (60k USD) and Php 12 million for upper middle class mansion (220k USD). And those prices are already challenging for the average working Filipino, since salary rates here are much lower.
If you ain't happy move.. who cares
My wife and moved from California, and never looked back.
"100k to make your first down payment" I'm dying laughing
Shows out of touch he is.
Don't you guys realize how EASY it is to save 100 grand?
As a California native, seeing California's slow decline isn't even the depressing part, its the masses that are in complete denial and still claiming its the best state in the country.
Thats because economically it still is.
@@Misaelito1991 economically it's not you need to go do your research
@@Misaelito1991 you're blind if you think it's economically good
@@samyguindy8490 politics aside California has a strong economy only an idiot will deny that. 5th largest economy in the world and bigger than Texas. Without the state the US economy would take a huge financial hit.
so the question is if you had to pack up and leave the socialist republic of California, which state would you immigrate too
I was in denial about the declining state of California like “If you don’t like it then leave, losers”…then, I began to look around. The tents scattered everywhere, mental disease, rent prices, food prices, taxes, crime. I’m so glad I left
maybe fake electronic money will save us all
If you think California is bad, then go traveled through Kentucky. Mitch McConnell should be ashamed. I’m sick of Calif traffic. It’s insane. Everywhere. I love the coastal regions. We all think the grass is greener on the other side. Go there first and see.
@@tonisumblin2719 because both parties aren’t looking out for you and mostly not caring at all if the country is rotting. Hell, Texas is slowly turning into your state or California as there’s more homeless guys moving in my area and companies including the government are jacking up the prices on everything.
That's only in Los Angeles proper though. Once you get east of, say El Monte, or perhaps even East Los Angeles, you really don't find that many tents anywhere. I live in the Inland Empire and trust me I don't see any tents at all.
@@Alex-eb6je come to riverside or San Bernardino
Many of my family and friends couldn’t believe I didn’t wanna come back to California after I got my degree on the East coast. They would say, why would you want to live anywhere else?! Fast forward ten years, I’m giving them advice on how to move out of California. Get out while you can.
lol
Is it that bad? 😱
Anonymously Anonymous no it’s not, it’s sadly that people aren’t very smart and if they go back 50 years prices for cars to food to gas have increased. People have different beliefs and some don’t want to hustle to live here, it’s not for the faint of heart. The people leaving are usually trying to get ahead while keeping their lifestyle or they are retiring and aren’t able to afford the lifestyle they want in CA. It’s hyperbolic to say it’s bad when for every 1 person that leaves there are 20 people who come in that want to work really hard and honestly that helps the CA economy because those people make CA stronger because they hustle and work hard.
@@Ap_twsh I see your perspective. I work very hard, maybe 80-90 hours a week. This week I’ll hit 87 hours, here in Texas. So I didn’t leave CA to not work hard. I left to make and keep money. So I can fund my retirement, not to pay for the blunders of a mismanaged state. For my industry (healthcare) we get paid the same no matter where we practice. But I understand if you are in select industries, maybe living in CA is an advantage. But all being equal, I have found a much more comfortable life, and wealth, here in Texas. I would have to work twice as long in CA as I will here in Texas. Hopefully CA will improve, because I like the state, I know it well, and sometimes miss it. But each time I visit, I realize I miss something that doesn’t exist anymore ☹️
@@hb2998 completely understand. its a double edge sword in a way. you have to do what is necessary for your health. glad your doing well over there.
I escaped California in 1995. Never missed it, never went back! Get out while you can.
What pisses me off is that californias pays the highest tax income,highest gas tax,hughes electricity prices and much more and what do we get in return expensive rent,high crime rate,homeless and a government that can't do its fucking job
California also has the most freeways, most suburban sprawl, biggest police budgets, most wildfires, highest population, etc. You get exactly what you pay for with your tax dollars. More lanes, a relatively low crime rate (lower than texas my man), more suburbs, more cops, and a grid that doesn’t explode when it gets cold. Most of the shitty government Californians deal with is local level, not state. You can 100% blame your high rent on your local morons on the zoning board.
These liberals moved from New York to California to escape liberal policies and they voted for the same people that made them leave in the first place. Now that California is ruined it’s onto the next state to ruin.
But California's refugees will still continue to vote for the same policies in the state they flee to.
If you want high taxes, take your lunch bucket and move to Oregon. Some smart asses do not know what is.;;;;
It’s the voters that are not doing their job. Go GOP but then, after the late President, the GOP has little to offer.
“It’s easy to save $100k in ten years?” For whom sir?!?!? As a someone born and raised in CA with kids, student loans etc..the sunny days are no longer cutting it.
The point is to save the $100k before you have kids. Once you have kids, saving money in California is no longer really possible without a high-earning job. Kids are expensive.
That guy was delusional. We experience a lot of the same challenges here in Hawaii. I have colleagues whom I cannot see a path to home ownership, unless they can find a way to live rent free with someone so they can stack money. It’s really depressing for future generations. So many things have to go right to own property in this market…
No. He’s right. Y’all are just terrible at budgeting and love making excuses
He is right. He talked about how people travel so much to post on IG and waste money, forgetting what they need to be focusing on. Work, spend wisely, keep your head down, and 100k in 10 years is definitely possible.
That’s $10k per year..$833 per month. If college students choose a quality major and got a job making AT LEAST $60k out of school (which isn’t difficult at all for a college graduate in SoCal) there’s no reason they couldn’t save $833 per month. The issue is now that they’ve graduated they feel like they “deserve” a new car or a car they absolutely can’t afford. So now they have a $400-$500/month car payment, which is naturally going to require more insurance coverage than a cheap vehicle that’s owned outright plus they’re in their early 20s, so slap on a $300/month insurance payment. Coupled with constantly eating out and just spending money on stupid shit. Most college graduates could DEFINITELY do it. They just handle money poorly or start families way before they should smh. I’m on my 7th year out of undergrad and literally begged so many people not to do what I just described and fiscally wreck themselves but was just called a hater 🤷🏾♂️
I watch the cycle repeat with fresh grads every single year then listen to them complain that they’re broke...while driving a Tesla .. 🤦🏾♂️
I left California 6 years ago. Currently, I settled down in Michigan. I live in Ann Arbor. I think the housing market here is much more affordable for settlements than in California.
Moved from San Francisco to TN. Never looked back
If you're from California, you know why. We just left. Our kid needs a better school, our family needs a better quality of life. The stress of knowing all it takes is one misfortune in life and you could be struggling to stay afloat. The state is absolutely beautiful but so much of it has gone downhill including the people and we didn't see it improving anytime soon. It's really sad.
I left 6 years ago after over 3 decades. It just got worse and worse. It's not even the USA any more. It's a foreign country.
The trash of some is the treasure for others
Voting has consequences keep voting for Democrats and this is what you get. Hope you don't bring it to your new home so you can destroy the lives of the people that have lived there before you
So you have to infiltrate other states to infect ypur wokeness and narcissism?
I have seen enough what youre doing to the park and voting for democrats, there is reason why everyone hates Californians.
Stay in California and fix your own state instead of escaping like a coward.
@@denniskoeman3098 You're just in line for the big one.
when the price of housing becomes unaffordable for median income earners, that society is in decline. I saw the same thing in Hong Kong. No young person I met there wanted to stay in HK. They all wanted to come to the US. The main reason was that they could work a well paying corporate job and still never be able to afford a decent sized home. A society that screws over their middle class like this will go into decline.
Unregulated housing markets are a terrible idea.
Also, I society that is content with infants getting slaughtered in schools is in serious decline. I am in the process of moving out of the US. Leave while you can because the rise of fascism will only get worst.
This is the same thing for Singapore too. As a Singaporean, so much shit here is expensive and with rising costs (even pre-pandemic), and now that we're recovering from COVID measures and opened up our immigration again, the influx of many HKers and other foreigners have once again pushed up housing prices here.
Shit here is so expensive, that you need to spend 100s of thousands for just a fucking flat unit, an apartment (HDB Flat). At this rate in my country, anyone that below being a millionaire would be considered the new poverty line lol.
And our clueless government is still wondering why our birth rates are among the lowest in the world. (Our TFR, Total Fertility Rate, in 2021 was 1.1. Can't afford to have kids when you can't even afford to buy a simple apartment to live in as a married couple lmao)
My country is like that (middle east)
I should work for 25 years saving 90% of my salary to afford an average house
Why the United States? What about mainland China
People in California are so unhappy but they are in denial mode.
Moved to the Philippines to stretch my money until things get better in California. It’s a nice change, getting to live a simple life for once. I always felt stressed and anxious living in LA
I plan to retire there with my filipina wife... in 20 years.😢
Until things get better? California has been sliding downhill for 40 years. It will never get better, only worse.
As Australian, what i witnessed in LA and SF recently. it was disgusting.
did you go to Fresno?
too many mexicans....
Fellow Aussie here. I haven't been to the States, but seeing this video I'm even more in love with Melbourne.
@@robbiesheppard3280 Fresno is cool but the fucking air quality bruh💀
@@ToothlesstheNightFury510 yeah I heard it can really hot there too and the air quality, but I heard it is becoming a cool place
To those who are watching, It's only good until you get involved in a crime. Then you realize the court and the law is not in favor of the victim, whether it be yourself, your children, or your elders. No amount of sunshine tax, diversity, a good food selection, or walking in T shirts on a beach in February will ever be worth the well being of your family.
So so so true!!
@@asimhussain8716 Let me know when u get sued as a landlord / storeowner /. victim of crime in California or talk to people who’ve been through it. I have. Relevance is important.
@@asimhussain8716 yea I’m from Cali I have gotten off for armed robbery for felony burglary for possession of narcotics like 1,000 dollars worth of heroin. This was not all at once but different cases unfortunately I became the product of my Environment we came from Afghanistan and we got an apartment in the worst area of the bay area. Basically what this person said is true. I got a slap on the wrist for many of my felony cases that even had victims unfortunately this was all in my past life tho from the age of 15-27 I was in and out of prison now I am 31 4 years free from police contact and sober as well. Person who wrote the comment is saying the truth out here in Cali u get away with a lot of stuff then again all it takes is one judge to make an example out of you.
Housing markets are heavily regulated in California. Ever heard of zoning regulations? It's the reason why prices are unaffordable along with rent control due to artificially inflating the market value of local real estate by bottlenecking supply relative to increasing demand.
@@asimhussain8716 The voters of california literally voted for prop 47 which does nothing but incentivize petty theft.
You reap what you sow.
As a Floridian, California was always a dream. It was on the top of my list of places to visit-now, not so much unfortunately. The increase in moves to Florida has been beyond belief. I love Florida. I am sorry so many people are leaving California.
If anyone of you are thinking about purchasing in Florida, I’d love to help you find your next home. 😊
That guy that said Seattle is too white is the problem
Agree! How narrow minded can one be? Why are so many still so hung up on skin color?
Until we learn to see each other as fellow humans, our attitudes will get us no where.
I don't give a damn about a person's skin color, never did. I do give a damn how a person conducts themselves.
Most Austin natives hate the influx of new residents who are pushing up house prices and making Austin expensive. It's just a cycle, and Austin will follow like San Francisco. Prices will keep skyrocketing for some years while all the locals are priced out and forced to leave. Then when things reach a breaking point, those same businesses and their employees will leave for a cheaper place.
People leaving California because they have been over-taxed and over-regulated
yes that is human conquest. always has been, always will be.
@@jadesea562 that's real bad
Yeah
Moved Further away from Austin about 45 minutes, already its expensive! Its insane how a 375k house is now 600k+
I left California after 43 years and now live in a small town in New Mexico with access to a bigger city when the need calls me. Affordability, friendliness and the outdoor lifestyle are what drew me here. California is beautiful and cutting edge but these aspects have been severely eroded over the years.
Fed policy supported this by low interest rate below inflation since before 2008. Now it is too late too little to correct. Real inflation rate of needs including housing, fuel, foods, energy, medicare are much higher than the average inflation. Instead of using average inflation rate of needs upon the percentage of consumption over income. Only good part that Fed needs to sell bonds with discount rate. So, the better solution for CA is to increase the supply over the demand in housing, and offer decentralization of tax and permit to lower cost; etc in rural areas. But no way hose for this.
It seems as though some cabal has an interest in causing a mass exodus from California, for whatever reason.
New Mexico is California lite, sadly for you.
You left CA the 3rd economy in the world to live in very poor state!
Yeah but i mean thats exactly what the state need, as more people will leave the costs will also reduce.
I live in the California central valley and the weather during the summer is HELL. When summer ends, fires begin so then we have to deal with 2 months of non stop smoke not just from forests but from houses and cars and cities that burn down. Homelessness is increasing and you go to the supermarket and see people just walking out of it stealing bags full of groceries. I have been robbed a few times now. Things are getting out of control here
I rather take that central valley heat than this Central Texas subtropical climate. The humidity is goddamn awful.
Personally, I did something similar to people leaving California for Texas. If I'm being honest it's the best decision I've ever made. In Vancouver (my previous city) I was working endlessly just to maintain living standards and despite having a great salary, it was hard keeping up with year to year price increases and watching 2 thirds of my income go to paying someone else's mortgage on a shitty apartment that I could be kicked out of at any time. During the pandemic, my Dads business started struggling, and since I could work remote I moved in with him and helped him pay the bills. Within a year of paying off his mortgage, The reduced stress of not having to work my ass off, thanks to my reduced bills allowed me to focus on myself. By the end of that year, I found my fiancée and saved up enough money for a down payment on a house 2 minutes away from my dads. My mortgage, property taxes, utilities and food for me and my fiancée are less then what I was paying for myself in my old apartment, but here I get a beautiful front and back yard and 2 additional bedrooms. The lower bills allowed me to take on more risk, and to start a business further increasing my income and happiness, the increased space has also allowed me to get 2 puppies, take up new hobbies that would have violated my old rental agreement. Me and my fiancée are even talking about having a kid.
This is just conjecture, and based on my own personal experience, but I feel like people are happier, and more productive when they can own a stake in their communities. I have friends that sacrifice so much... They have to do unfulfilling jobs, for assholes just to make enough money to spend time in a city they don't have enough time off to enjoy, that lack of time also leads to them losing opportunities to find people and build families to enjoy their cities with. Even if they're able to save up enough to buy a place, its because they've worked so hard, and gone without for so many years, they'll be lucky to pay that house off by the time they retire. There's an old Greek proverb that says "Great societies are build when old men plant trees who's shade they will never sit in" unfortunately its unlikely that in some cities people (if they can even afford to buy a home) will ever be able to buy a place where they can plant a tree and watch it grow tall enough to provide their children with shade.
That's how I felt in California. Making a 6 figure income in my mid 20's, but having a standard of living of that of a fast food worker in a lot of other states. It's demoralizing.
As someone born and raised in Texas, it’s always been so hard for me to understand why people leave these beautiful states for mediocre Texas. And I guess it always just comes down to money and space for their family. We had a 4 bedroom house with a few living rooms, backyard, front yard… none of that mattered to me as a kid since the weather and scenery were usually not very inviting to be outdoors. So I grew up on the internet and video games. Whatever one can do inside. I lived in California for a few years and it was so different. I worked a lot to pay for my small bedroom in San Francisco and the cost of living in such a desirable city. When I wasn’t working, I was exploring the sights, enjoying the weather, trying new restaurants, meeting friends at Dolores Park... It always felt like there was something to do. Texas never felt like that to me. It’s just a place to stay inside and save money if you can, even though the wages are much less in Texas on average.
@@tybarker5038 Curious if you were able to save any sort of money for retirement or long term financial planning. Most of my friends that live in San Francisco have a terrible financial future.
This was beautifully written.
Vancouver is the LA of Canada. Drugs sunshine homelessness etc. Vancouver and south BC is really great but way too expensive to live
Left after 25 years….it’s so bad. The homelessness, the housing prices, the drugs, the crime, it’s terrible. There are better places in the world. Travel more and find them 🥰🙏🏽
What did you do different? Where did you move most Cali people are liberals! Who believe in dreamers and giving criminals rights!
You vote different and think differently now? Or you will destroy these same place you at! Alot of people say they hate y'all moves where they are! Y'all have increased prices and crime
@@TheRealWorldNews247 Mate its Capitalism that are causing prices to inflate very high.California is the most capitalist state in US.Nowdays,Texas cities like Austin are seeing rising house prices as well.
Keep on voting Democrat!👍
Thank Newsom, Democrats and the decades-long Democrat majority ruled power structures and decision-making process for it. I mean, you had a "recal" ... but of course Newsom didn't lose, because, of voter fraud and ballot harvesting.
@chewbacca Stay there. My state doesn't want you!
Just remember when you move to a new place to adapt to their culture. Don't move somewhere and try to change it into California. If the people of those areas wanted to live in a place like California they would have moved to California. Don't move somewhere new and try and destroy the local culture and way of doing things even if you believe your way is better.
That's how we feel in Idaho. It's flooded with people moving in from Cali. This is an open carry state that doesn't even require a license to conceal carry. It is safe, crime is very low. We understand people want to escape Cali. We are fine with it as long as they don't bring all those gun restrictions in with them.
@@Skateordie193 I get that. I grew up in North central Idaho but live in Utah now hopefully I'll make it back Idaho is the best state. One thing I wish would happen is open carry become normal all the time. Every where you go you see them on people's hips. It would desensitize people to firearms. I also wish they would bring firearms/safety training back to schools so everyone grows up with them and understanding the responsibility and know how Hollywood's depiction of firearms is a inaccurate. It would be much harder to sell regulations to the public if the knowledge and exposure was ubiquitous.
I had to flee Arizona because all of California infiltration, I started noticing it in 2016 and it got worse every year. I live in the middle of nowhere now, I picked somewhere California people wouldn’t find appealing.
Same here in rural Kentucky. Why do people from CA want to live in rural KY? So far, the ones I know seem to be center or right politically. That’s good. We have had some from Chicago move here, too. They immediately started out trying to change things making lots of noise about us being a dry county among other things. They are disliked.
It’s called DEMOCRAT ideology
If you voted democrat you should totally not be allowed to leave CA. Stay and deal with the colossal mess you've helped create.
I visited California for the first time in the 2000's, and I couldn't fathom why anyone would want to live there, aside from the nice weather. Not that it matters because you spend all your free time in your car. I was on a business trip visiting clients along the I-5 corridor, but I did visit the tourist places in my free time. Those places were even worse with crowds, traffic, high prices on literally everything.
To the man who said it's easy to save $100k in 10 years...Uh...No. In 10 years you'll need $500k as a down payment at the rate we're going. Get comfortable with renting or plan on moving way, way, way out of town.
Well to each its own, I was born and raised in Oklahoma and after I moved to La Joya San Diego 10 years ago, I fell in love with this city. It is expensive for the people with regular jobs though. I love it here. It has beautiful beaches, perfect weather year round, tons of things and places to visit and as a bonus is close to the mexican border. We frequently go to Baja California Mex to have some fun in the weekends.
@@Jimmyxsx good for you chap “it’s expensive for people with regular jobs”
Big city is not for you! Look at this clown complaining about crowd. Duh stupid there 40 million people here. You thought they ghosts 😂
@Illunworth hmmm like Orange County is not good or inland empire is not huh? What do you know about California besides LA?
@Illunworth you said the person went to the good part “la Jolla”. Use your common sense
Moved out of California 2 years ago as I couldn't afford buying a house even after saving money. The rising crimes, homelessness and high cost of living just got to me. I love being there but things are too expensive.
You have a spending problem.
I moved out of Cali over 20 years ago, never regret👍
where to?
@@larisamadolimov9130 where?
No what got to you wad u couldn't afford to live here.
I was born and raised in California. It’s my home and always will be. But the bottom line is I want to own land that I will be able to PAY OFF, but no such land exists in California anymore.
yup! im thinking about moving for the same reason
What is mind boggling is people who are struggling in California and they have like five kids...
I wanted to move to Cali but I'm grateful I didn't. I visited LA and was turned off. It wasn't the prices it was the homeless. Makes it hard to believe the state supports its people with so many on the streets. It was sad. I seriously hope California resets their priorities in coming years
Los Angeles is not attractive. It has no culture, not history. It is a bland, tasteless city. It's a third world city pretty much. Only the lucky "haves" enjoy the good areas of the city.
There more to cail and L.A & SF
sounds racist
@Obsidian He clearly said he didnt like the homeless population.. poor kids are just as bright as white kids.
A majority of the homeless are not even from California. They come here from other states/countries for drugs.
Good for him if he thinks saving 100k in 10 years is possible, but tell that to all the other people leaving. Those services you enjoy so much such as restaurants, theaters, shows and other services are going to other states. It's only a matter of time until that reality sets in.
@Nonya G exactly my thought that guy sounds miserable but trying hard as hell to put on a smile
Or waste 10 years of his life. If only life is unlimited.
saving 10K a year is possible if you are not a useless a dork spending $250k on a college degree that earns you $20/hr. I've done it, and my sister did it 20 years ago with no college education what so ever.
@@Saki630 i agree but the resources for college ain’t accessible for everyone or even save money. it comes down to so many factors for so many in this country today
Well, *his* reality is that he’s probably sitting on a TON of equity and can easily cash out and move elsewhere, even if his equity drops dramatically.
Also yeah, $100k cash for a down payment isn’t even considered a strong offer in SF. That’s less than 10% down in most cases. And in 10 years, inflation will eat away at that savings anyway. His advice will be to save $200k in another 10 years…
Let's just hope they don't start voting stupid and ruining other states.
Don't need to watch the video. As a Caifornian, here are the reasons:
1. The biggest reason: high cost of living. Home ownership, food costs, taxes all add up to issues.
2. Most restrictive laws in the country.
3. Too liberal
I've lived in a few European countries and for the last 6 years, Australia, specifically Queensland. I recently visited CA for the first time. I have to say it was one of the most underwhelming and even sometimes shocking trips I have ever taken in my life, and I have worked in the Middle East, sub saran Africa and South Asia. Of course, it is richer than those places, but the amount of homelessness, dereliction and atmosphere of decay was absolutely unbelievable for the a state with 6th largest economy in the world, famed for the most prestigious industry, tech. I found myself asking why the hell would a tech billionaire want anything to do with that place, it's outright decrepit in comparison to many Australian and European cities. The weather? I'm sorry but the weather is not even close to as enjoyable as, say, Queensland, and the beaches are incredibly crummy in comparison. Overall I had a good time there but something felt seriously seriously wrong with California in a way I had never seen in a developed country before. The fact that every glistening mega bank building was adjourned with a rainbow flag whilst a small shantytown of homeless tents gathered around it definitely gave me the impression that it is end stage neoliberalism, decorating itself with social justice so the middle/upper class can feel good about themselves whilst actual inequality is through the roof.
That's odd, I know two people who just moved here to LA from Australia because they love the quality of lifestyle. Everything you just said about CA they said about where they came from. I am constantly meeting people who moved here from the UK as well.
It’s not “inequality” my man….
It’s rampant drug use. It’s far left policies that have basically legalized drug use, and the crime to pay for the drugs. It’s legalized camping anywhere they want.
It’s a free for all for drug addicts and vagrants. It’s anything goes.
They’ve created the problem, and then watched it grow.
It's a completely different place than it was even 20 years ago. US as a whole is in decline. I can't believe this is even happening in my lifetime.
Here in California it's called being progressive
Inequality is through the roof all over the country and I also lived in Europe and in the Orient. It’s everywhere. I don’t know where the hell you were in California but I’ve never seen what you’ve described. Ever. 😂🤣😂. You must have been walking through a movie set. . But I’ll be on the lookout. Thanks for the laugh. 😅😂
If I had to choose between moving to Texas and moving to California I would stay where I'm at. With everybody moving to Texas, it will become the new California.
Exactly
unproven theory -
True.
It already is
I recommend the book "San Fransicko - why progressives ruin cities". I doubt Texas is going to let thieves go unpunished, or treat hobos like they are exclusively victims, telling them they dont need to take on even a shred of responsibility. I dont see that happening in Texas.
That last man was not even believing his own lie about California being worth it...
We left two years ago and see no reason to ever go back. It's called QUALITY OF LIFE!
“We have diversity and good food” same thing could be said for 85 percent of the nations urban areas. California isnt special

California is great. It has everything. Supply and demand.
That is like probably the most confusing argument I've ever heard people mentioned when it comes to that out of this video, is diversity and good food, literally you have that in texas, you have that in florida, you have that in new mexico, you have like at least 10 different other states that have that exact same thing, and all of them are more affordable then California
I was grateful beyond words when my daughter moved back to Missouri after leaving California. She made good money but returned broke. California is a great place to visit but not to live!

CA is going to fine citizens billions a year for not having health insurance and paying for their own medical care, but they are going to provide free health care/insurance for those in the country illegally.
In CA we provide driver's license to people in the country illegally, and you can list your sex as “X”, but I have to bring my original birth certificate, social security card, and two utility bills to get my Real CA driver's license so I can use it to board a plane since the Federal government no longer recognizes regular CA licenses.
It’s ok for a homeless person to build a house next to the river out of plywood and tarps on property they don't own, but I have to pull a permit and pay fees to have an inspection if I do something as simple as replacing a window on my own property, and pay to camp in a state park.

Califronia needs a decline in population. 40 million people wanting to live here is the problem. Over the past 50 years people crowding in has caused problems. As it will in other cities that are over growing.
Everybody keeps talking about Californians leaving, but no one has stated the obvious, California has been the recipient of mass immigration, both from within the US and from foreign countries since the 1965 immigration act. Just in my county alone, Los Angeles county, you have over 13 million people living there. There. Of course everything will increase, from real estate to gas to food. If people want cheap prices they can move in the middle of Nevada. There is plenty of cheap real estate there. You just don't have access to water.
Diversity and good food? Let me get this straight. Most people in California are stressed, unfriendly, aggressive and awkward. I went to South Florida and was shocked by how much more friendly the people were. Not to mention how relaxed and slower life was. Don't give me that diversity BS, please!

@BossLady We're not bringing the issues with us, it's not like we have homeless and mentally ill people hitch-hiking in our cars on the way to Austin.

Naturally, it will eventually lead to more crime, but with states like Texas and Arizona that have such oversaturated police and highway-patrol budgets, I doubt it will become a problem.
