Looks like the Oakland liberals have so much pride in their city that they just dump trash everywhere. Then again when only a small elite enjoys economic bounty people tend not to much pride in their community.

They have not seen anything yet as far as the trashed out neighborhoods go. Third-world conditions are about to get much, much worse.

I can see massive and multiple back to back health crisis unfolding in the state that liberals gloat has the 5th largest economy, never mind that it has an income disparity that would make Brazil ashamed.

I am amazed at the the more California become trashed, the more liberals gloat about how they have the 5th largest economy which is a bubble and has basically just enriched a small elite

The entire middle class is leaving California. It is much cheaper and better quality of life in nearby states like Montana, Wyoming, Nevada, and Arizona.

Is throwing shots at left-leaning cities in California the task your handlers have given you because that seems to be your running theme. There isn't a city in America not affected by illegal dumping and income disparity among the other issues you constantly point to without offering anything other than "ha ha, you suck".

Its one of the only places in the US with absolutely PERFECT weather, year round, of course people are going to move there in droves!

I live in KY currently, its around middle of May and we have been in upper 80s with very high humidity for close to a week now, when winter rolls around, its on the uncomfortable side too, VERY VERY few days in the year where you do not have to be running either heat or A/C.

Weather aside, the quality of life is far higher in Wyoming than it is in Nevada and Arizona.

I don't know what Nevada and Arizona offer the middle-class either these days. The best states for the middle-class are states like Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, Wyoming.

Nevada and Arizona have tremendous amounts of liberals these days.

Wyoming and North Dakota though have a quality of life that just gets better and better as they get more conservative.

Las Vegas is full of tent cities also and has extremely high rates of violent crime.

Reno has a massive overdose problem with 133 overdoses with a population in the county of just 400,000 people or a rate of about 30 per 100,000.

Reno also has about twice the violent crime rate of the national average.

Drug overdose deaths in Washoe County drop slightly in 2016 | KRNV

Homicides have surged in Phoenix also, they had 161 in 2017 when they were down to 112 several years ago.

Except for the weather, Wyoming has a fantastic quality of life and is far more Republican than Nevada and Arizona.

The Democratic party is nearly non-existant in Wyoming like it is in North Dakota and many other plains states these days.

Reno and Las Vegas has huge population growth from the past few decades, which is why it went Democrat in the past few elections. Most of the people born in Nevada usually leans conservative/republican.

California is one of the most liberal states in the country, yet does nothing to help out the homeless or build more housing. Instead, they want to let in tons of illegals while giving them the same rights as American citizens, provide them with government benefits, and pay their college costs. No wonder so many people flee.

Apparently the poster used to live there and could not afford to stay, opting for something much cheaper in Texas. They apparently carry a burning resentment against the entire state, instead of focusing on their inability to have enough income to stay there.

That said, California welcoming more and more immigrants from Mexico is going to cause major problems in their future if they don't start realizing they only have a finite amount of money to provide for its residents and their needs.

Why is the discussion about what is happening in some of our cities off limits for some of you?

It's weird...as though you're taking it personally. What's up with that?
