I agree that everyone comes to this board with at least some degree of bias...but I haven't seen anyone from the NE making some of the claims you have. When that happens, feel free to disagree.

The Northeast is far more important than California in virtually every category...the only exception being high tech.

Economically...well it's not even close. You saw the numbers for yourself.

Politically, same.

History, same.

Wait a minute, wasn't it you who brought it up and tried to boost Cali using that phrase?

I am glad you find your own arguments silly now.

I'm going to ignore that I mistakenly assumed you even had an actual real source for your information which is what I really find silly But did you even read post 66 and what I said about debating this catchphrase? The point of my original posts is not suppposed to be about the catchphrase.
