Unless we’re heavily weighting history of influence, it is pretty indisputably California. I’m curious as to how anyone would arrive at any other conclusion. This isn’t saying that California dominates the US economy or politics, but it is definitely first as a state among the 50 states by just about any metric.
California is factually not the best state. Of course your opinion could be that it is the best state.
According to US News and World Report, Washington is the 'best' state. But again, that is one source, and doesn't mean this is true or false for that matter. Just an interesting tidbit. I'm not sure if the 'best' state can be quantified, peoples ideas of best are all not the same. Plus so many things go into what is considered 'best'.

There's actually a saying that(which i recently read about) that "As California goes, so goes the nation" which is mostly due to many of the laws/regulations/progressive ideas regarding environmentalism and social issues usually originates in California or more specifically, San Francisco(since it's so liberal), which later spreads across the nation so California definitely has a huge impact on American politics and of course California also has the largest economy in the U.S.(5th in the world).
Wasn't this done last week, and than the week before that? Well Anyway Obviously California like in the last three Threads, But I see the Case of Texas taking that Crown in about 20 years. Eventually California is going to start losing population like Illinois. I Can Never See Texas losing population
You don't remember doing all these?
Is this Some sort of Joke to you lol?
You Really like California don't ya
I asked these questions based on 3 different aspects: Fame, Importance, and influence. So according to you, all three are the samething? Lol. And yes, i do love California just like everyone else loves their state and the only reason i created these threads is because i didn't see any especially polls related to these aspects so i created it, simple as that. And not just California, i have asked about New York, Texas, Florida, Illinois as well. Your last question made me laugh, thanks lol
