This is from several yrs ago but you get the idea.
"Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger (he'll be back?) has proposed selling the L.A. Memorial Coliseum and San Quentin prison, releasing thousands of prison inmates, closing more than 200 state parks, wiping out welfare for a half-million families and terminating health care coverage for nearly a million children in low-income households. But even all that is not enough when tens of billions of dollars must be found"
...
Unable to respond to any of my points you are left to post links from years ago....Jerry Brown is already on his second term as Gov. and is leading the state back into black.
You had snow in LA this past winter and you claim the weather is better? Hmm.. you're in a severe drought, actually your gov probably wishes for more humidity to prevent all those fires every year.
You keep mumbling the same misinformation endemic to CD from people who don't even live or have never been to FL (yet alone have any real knowledge on the subject). The state's #1 industry is not tourism and FL does not solely rely on that. Tourism is the 4th largest employment sector/industry; get your facts straight. Tourism is probably a draw, no biggie, but ORL receives the most tourists.
#1 state for aviation manufacturing attractiveness. 2000+aerospace/aviation companies. Yes indeed FL is only for retirees (when the pigs learn to fly, it will be).
Actually, your COL destroys the $46K per capita easily and offsets getting supposedly better education. People move out of CA. "The trend can be explained, in part, in monetary terms. Even in an economic boom, the cost of living in California has increased, prompting people to move out, and, in recent years, unemployment in the state has skyrocketed."
Btw, who the heck retires in CA nowadays? Most of you go to AZ.
Well LA is warm in winter,it dosen't snow in LA but only in the mountains in LA,of corse its going to snow in the mountains,no snow have ever been recored in the city of LA,and its in the same hardiness zone as South florida,zone 10,in some extreme spots of coastal california such as San Diego,the hardiness zone goes as much as zone 11,which beats south florida

Right now, parts of South Florida reach all the way up to zone 11B; the highest those extreme parts of California reach is 11A, and that is actually quite marginal. So South Florida beats California in that department, actually.
Anyways, hardiness zones for Florida and the rest of the South, in a natural climactic state, would be much warmer than what you are seeing right now. Zone 10 would actually extend up the East Coast as far north as even Charleston, SC, under a natural climactic state. Much of the Gulf Coast would be a solid 10B/11A climate zone, and 11B, probably even a 12A, would cover more of the Florida Peninsula. The reason the Florida, and the rest of the South appears the way it does on the USDA map is because of abnormally cold periods brought by a phenomenon known as the Cold Epoch, responsible for harsh outbreaks of cold, like those of the 1980s, which skew temps to make the climate appear colder than it really is. Once the Cold Epoch dissapears, you will see the true warmth appearing over Florida, and the rest of the Coastal South.
Why? I was enjoying this Trigger guy's desperate attempts to try to convince us that Florida is better than California. Good times
