I guess that person likes the worst traffic in the world, sky high cost of living, homeless run amok, over crowded everything, Hell even finding a place to park is a chore that you have to pay for. Lately we don't even have the good weather.

California is lovely but it’s not worth 13.3% of my income to live there full time verses zero % to visit frequently.
Florida is lovely too ...
These tax laws were DESIGNED to bleed California, NY, NJ, MA and other high taxing liberal states.
I hope they bleed deep and profusely...
Me, too.

It's just a fact. Have fun and thanks for my big pension. Much appreciated. I'll buy you a cup of coffee next time I vacation in CA. See you in Laguna Beach after my five hour drive.

It really burns you up to hear what most of the rest of the country thinks about California and California liberals moving to their state, doesn't it?

They're simply "bashing" because they're jealous. Taxes, homeless, traffic, COL., policies, druggies, gangs, illegal alien sanctuary, truly no different than any other state. L.A. County only has 30,000(?) homeless and those beggars standing on street corners, many with fake Vietnam vet signs that you're so proud to give a dollar to are in every U.S. City, right?

You mentioned in another post that you're never leaving Cali.

Bless you. You're what many folks think of when they think of the typical Californian.

You left California because you can't manage your money, and now you've come back to our forum to lash out at us because you had to go where you could afford and you're trying oh-so-hard to make the best of it, but the truth is, you sought out this forum for a very personal reason.

It doesn't "burn" me. I don't get burned, sweetie. You see, I'm not as delicate and sensitive as you seem to be. You're really nothing more than an old, racist troll. Do yourself -- and the rest of us -- a huge favor and move to Idaho or Arizona with the rest of em' !

Hurry!

You are hilarious. I have a triple figure pension from CA, plus a few million in investments, plus a few sections (look up how much a "section" is city guy) of prime farmland back in the Midwest, plus a lot more...more than you will ever have...I can live anywhere I want in the world and can easily afford it. LOL.

I just think CA sucks because of it's politics, it's traffic, and it's snotty folks (not everyone) that live there. I post here because, well, I'm retired and it's entertaining and also because I think CA sucks for the reasons I've mentioned. I will never live there again. I like to fight against socialistic governments and environments. I believe in freedom. I do thank you for my triple figure pension. YOU ARE FUNDING IT. LOL. You are funding it while your public agencies starve for money to provide you services to fix your crappiy roads and all your deadbeat homeless types that crap on your streets and fill up your park benches because that's who you love having for neighbors...oh, and all the illegals because of your sanctuary cities. Gavin is your Saviour.

Exactly. And the sour grapes attitude on this thread is pathetic.

I can afford to live in the most expensive places in CA. Easily. The state sucks though. Why should I throw away 13 plus percent state income tax plus the high cost of living to live in a crappy communist state with needles galore on the ground, homeless, heavy traffic, tons of illegals, Pelosi, Feinstein, Newsome and a state that is on the decline? If I want some sun and beach (the Valley has the sun and who cares about the beach other than a few times a year) I can fly or drive and get that. I get out of AZ during the summer to wherever I want and still live much more cheaply here in Paradise Valley than I could with even remotely the quality of life I'd have in CA.

I vacation all over the world, so CA is no big deal. In fact, it's the opposite.

Each to his own. I do thank you for my triple figure pension though. If the state of CA (run by unions) is irresponsible enough to pay it, I'm not giving it back but I'm doing it in a state where I can buy a mansion for what it cost to live in a s:"&*%hole in CA.
