Simple. They replaced Gov. Reagan with Gov. Moonbeam and a Democrat majority in the legislature, and ever since California has gone downhill. No self-respecting American in their right mind would ever live in the hellhole Democrats have made in California.

Because right-wingers are dying at a faster pace. I suspect God has something to do with this, but I can't confirm it.

Plus they pander to the illegal alien leeches that are sucking their state dry. Compliments of every govenor in office for the past couple of decades. I know, I live there.

Like most states large California cities contain a large nuber of fedewral dependnt people. Over time its increased as per cenatge of popualtion of those cities just as they became more depednent on it as overall tax base went down. Alot of welth but welth is not enouigh to stop riaisng cost of those dependent.

Actually, since the GOP was kicked to the curb, California's prospects are looking up.

I gather you don't realize that Reagan wasn't really conservative while in California. This is because during the 1970s he came out in opposition to the proposition in California that gay teachers could not teach in state public schools. The proposition failed while halting the momentum behind Anita Bryant's anti-gay crusade.
