California wont fall into the ocean from an earthquake, after all much of the state like San Diego and much of the Central Valley isn't really on a earthquake fault.
California though is completely overwhelmed from having nearly 40 million people. Most of the growth from the excessive amount of babies many Californians have and being a massive destination for people from third-world coming to clean after wealthy California liberals.
Their infrastructure is collapsing, the traffic is awful because they have outdated highways that should have been widened in 1930 that have a fraction of the lanes of metro areas in Texas.
California has huge unfunded pension liabilities that will bankrupt it during the next recession.
Most California cities have horrible infrastructure because they can only raise property tax 2% a year for existing home owners but the 2% increases are swallowed up massive pensions and excessive pay scales.
The state is dependent on capital gains from the ultra-wealthy for much of it's revenue and when stock market goes way down during a recession, the states revenues collapse.
California also sends more money to the federal government than it gets back from it.
Your dream of the California demise is just that, a dream.
Between January 2015 and the summer of 2016, about a third of the state’s mineral extraction jobs, or nearly 9,000 positions, had been lost, said Wenlin Liu, chief economist for the Wyoming Division of Economic Analysis.
The recent decline in oil and natural gas prices, along with a drop in coal production, reverberated on the state’s overall economy.
In all, Wyoming lost 16,000 jobs, or more than 5 percent of its workforce, Liu said.
So Wyoming is trying to rebound to get back to where they were 4 years ago.
Not sure where you're going with this, but in 2019 the states with the fastest growing economies wait for it... Are Washington, Oregon, and then California! What's so conservative about these states. Wyoming is nowhere near the top or even Texas.
I've become wholly convinced that you really don't know the difference between the two.
