Well if Michael Savage said it then it must be true. Though I'm not surprised, it's pretty obvious you can't think for yourself and lack actual experience visiting or living elsewhere.

Yea, South Florida doesn't exactly have a sterling reputation either when it comes to crime, the homeless and the depraved (remember the Miami Zombie?). Just a weird tangent here.

No to both. There is also drug problem and crime up in Nor Cal not to mention the COL. I was in a forum that was talking about crowds, crime, sink holes, humidity, mosquitos and alligators in a florida forum.

I've already saw that thread in the past. Purposely avoided SO CAL and I'm biased against SO CAL . SOUTH FLORIDA WOULD WIN EVERY CATEGORY IN MY BOOK.

Your book is incorrect then, because you are talking a huge area much bigger than SoFla, San Diego, OC, LA, Ventura County, Santa Barbara. So Fla loses badly over that area.

Well, he has a PhD, what do you have? Give him a call and try to convince him. He says CA has become a dump in many ways(and he lives there).

I lived in NYC for 7 yrs, also graduated from the same university as he did. In addition I lived in Europe for a while so know how they function(CA is the same, welfare state). Let's reconvene when you overcome the la la land syndrome.

Yeah right. Can you say Mexican drug cartel? A lot closer to CA(South or North) than South FL.

I have a brain and can think for myself. Apparently you don't and just go with whatever some random radio personality tells you like a sheep. Yeah exactly he still lives here despite having the means and ability to live anywhere yet he chooses to stay in CA instead of someplace like Floriduh.
