Reminds me of another alleged millionaire that used to lurk around the boards.

Meh. You seem like a liar. There hasn’t been a single thread by you exploring CA or asking questions up until now. So cartoonish.

Can't we just leave Bakersfield out of this. Maybe substitute Colorado Springs. LOL

Ignore the xenophobia for a minute.

Realize the governor shut down the state legislature and is making opening and closing laws arbitrarily based on "science" from listening to only a few advisors. Schools still arent open though the LA teachers unions said theyd consider opening "after the election."

In fact, Disneyland may never open at the current rate, even after a vaccine. According to Newsom's opening guidelines there needs to be less than 1 case daily for every 100,000 people in a county to open amusement parks. In fact based on the number of tests, false positives would prevent it from opening, ever.

So if you want to come consider coming after Newsom is gone and your children can attend school (CA teachers unions actively fighting to limit what they have to do on zoom as well), and things that make the state worthwhile are actually open.

In the meantime Im lookimg at ways to possibly leave temporarily for a year or so. And I have a good job and own a house.

It absolutely has to be a troll thread for sure, because only someone out of their logical mind would give it more than a glance before dropping the idea entirely.

Being a tax-serf does not appeal to me, and if OP is White and Male (which I assume he is) then he has no legal rights in that state.

I won't bore you with the details, as I am sure you have heard it 1000 times before. I think the real issue is that a born and raised American finds it too financially difficult to move to the state, while someone born in Mexico, El Salvador or Honduras can walk right in without worrying about a thing. Free healthcare, housing assistance, etc. while a job generating business and tax paying family is unwilling to pay for the free stuff for non Americans.

Ultimately we just were not comfortable having a target on our backs, with a government so anti-American. The good news is you don't have to see another car on the freeway. The bad news is you have one less contributor to offset your tax burden. Taxation without representation does not work for us.

I am not sure if we are going to stay in Colorado or go somewhere else. But Northern Mexico is officially off the list.
You just did BORE us with the details.
Trust me.... nobody cares why you don’t want to move to Ca.. or anywhere else for that matter. Just move to where you think that you will be happiest. Easy peasy.

Easy fix to that. Don’t come here. No need to whine and cry about it.

Seriously though, how miserable must you be in life to go on the internet and trash talk another state? Complete with a storyline to boot?
