You think they are different places?

All across the US is down, including CA.

Speechless. I sincerely hope the poster is merely doing it just to savage a losing argument, and not actually believe in this blatant disregard for truth.

The Great Recession as you called it occurred when Democrats controlled the House and Senate so blame goes 2/3 to Dems and 1/3 to Repubs (Bush)....if you try to spin it any other way, you're dishonest or ignorant.

The Great Recession was made worse when we had the continuation of Democrat control of the House and Senate and then a Democrat President and it was at this time that Cali was having unemployment of over 12%.

The corner was turned when we elected a Republican Congress and things have gotten better continuously since then and now with Republicans controlling all 3 branches, Cali has its all-time lowest unemployment rate....but it's still higher than the US average.

Not yet tired of winning.

Wow. To blame the Democrats for the Great Recession is like blaming the United States for causing WWII.

The housing bubble, created when Republicans held all three branches, was already popping when Democrats came into office. In fact, the bursting of the bubble was a major reason why Democrats was voted into office in the first place - to fix the mess created by the conservatives. This poster strikes me as someone who blamed earthquakes on Obama.

It's one thing to be defensive, it's something else to be completely delusional.

Sarah Huckabee Sanders and Kellyanne Conway must be so proud of you.

Well something's not correct here. First off, they are saying that the CA jobless rate hits lowest ever, but at the same time the numbers of homeless are at astronomical numbers according to watching the news last night about all the hazardous waste, tent cities, etc. etc. etc. set up all over the place. So what's the deal?

It appears to me that California has one of the highest qualities of life in the USA. In most states, a negligible percentage of jobs pay as well as the top 9.1% of California jobs, and you can't find much scenery or lifestyle like that shown below:

It sounds like you have the qualifications, you should just apply for it. Look in jobs site like Indeed.com or browse the job postings on tech companies that are based in CA. Update your resume and start sending them out. Good luck!

Delusional would be to blame only Republicans when Democraps were in control of the House and Senate and controlled the purse of government that led to the crash.

Democrats were voted out because they made the situation worse and now we have Republicans voted to control all 3 branches resulting in Kollyfornia having its lowest unemployment in its history.
