The 2015 Christmas shopping was a total disaster as well.
We used to play the "spot the license plate" game when my brother & I were young, whether we were traveling or just noticing the traffic in our home town so this thread title caught my eye.
As an adult I suppose that I still play the game but sometimes with a variation where I try to detect migration trends by what states turn up most often in my own neck of the woods.


That being said, it's too bad to see the thread degenerate into a free-wheeling bashing zone featuring simplified economic & political opinions far off from the original topic.

Where did I say "carry" or "all"???

BTW; My Mom and many relatives are from Texas; I lived in Texas for 13 years and I assimilated well into the culture there and also noticed that there is a lot in common with AZ culture as well. Being a product of both I believe I am quallified to say something about Texas.

Looks like generalizations and stereotyping are on your side of the table....

WOW..... Just; WOW......

Go and talk to some regular working class Calies that actually live in Cali; and not the elite ivory tower Calies that wouldnt notice anything wrong because the stench does not reach that high....

As far as hard data goes; go and look for it yourself just as I did, or just look at the median income vs cost of living there, look at the numbers, the policy, and the one sided toxic group think (politics) that is currently steering the direction that Cali is heading.

As far as what is based on "reality" goes; you are the one who is in doubt so that is your responsabilty.

Prove it to yourself.....

Whats funny, is that If I wasn't living here in TX, I wouldn't mind living in AZ. I was actually talking to a Co-worker about this, and he wouldn't mind living in AZ as well.

I don't mind Texans, as long as they bring some Southern cuisine here. We don't know how to make sweet tea or grits!
