How happened to the no generalizing a whole start rule? There's 30+ million of us Californians and we're not all in LA, SF, SD.

Yay...another thread turned into all about you. I think you would be a complaining "victim" no matter what generation you happened to live in.

Your claim of being poorer is delusional, especially as you have no first-hand experience with what a money pit an owned home can be.

Crying "Poor, pitiful me!" just doesn't cut it compared to the oh so many trying to find homes with no hope of even coming close to ownership - proud hard working, self-sufficient people who aren't living off of others. They wouldn't even if they could.

People in CA are passive-aggressive. It's very effeminate. If you have something to say, say it like a man. Don't play coy like a girl.

People in CA are self-centered. CA has an entitlement mentality that rivals nowhere else on earth.

People in CA are very materialistic. I thought you people were supposed to be laid back?

CA is a poster child for liberal America. It's an ugly thing.

Let me guess...Alaska? Have you even ever been to California because that doesn't sound like my friends.

Maybe that's a reason. Since our cars don't rust away from salt in the winter now we are materialistic a-holes.

What does mateialistic have to do with being laid back? So that must be another reason, we have a beach so we are laid back and are self centered.

You MountainMan are what I was talking about. Can you back up your claims further please

Most of it is political, some of it is jealousy.
