The future of blue states which follow CA's example?
If you are living in one of the 49 other states, you should learn from the lesson that is California. If you are living in California, there is always the lesson of how Michigan came to be governed by a more centrist government. Of course, that came after the failure of the prior government. For now, however, for all its concern for sustainable foods and products, California is on a high-speed rail to unsustainability.
Read the article for the breakdown of FACTS NOT FEEEEEELINGS....
Right wing hogwash lies. California had its worst time in recent memory when Swartzenegger (R) was governor and Bush II (R) was president. Of course we are supposed to forget the Bush recession that Obama got us out of. Smart people remember. Stupid people forget.
Exactly. We tried republican, and it made us worse, and more blue in the process! Californians go with what works. LA is booming like never before the amount of development is insane, but apparently we're going down the drain!!
Yet another Trumper attack on the engine of the US economy.
Cali is the 6th largest economy in the world. They are absolutely vital to the nation and the backbone of our great tech industry..
It is kind of fun to see the bile spewing out of trumpers, the raw envy and all the time Cali does not have a duck to give.
That is what they really hate, trumpers hate that despite all the foot stomping, crying and whining Cali folk don't give a duck what the right thinks. not a single one.
Until Te big one hits and turns this engine into a junk heap. And all those artificially inflated property values. You wouldn’t be able to give away your property.

1906 didn't prevent SF from rebuilding and becoming the powerhouse City it is today.
The amount of things that would have to go wrong for CA to truly fail, as so many in this thread are predicting, would be enormous. So much so that likely the entire country would be in serious trouble because those issues would be affecting them, as well.

The entire country would be in serious trouble if anything close to this happened in California. SF is booming more than ever despite the threat of earthquakes.

Did the welfare system and social benefits exist back then? Did California support a third of the country's welfare recipients? Were drug addicts, crazies and vagrants living on sidewalks? Was the state billions in debt to state pensions? Was it supporting millions of illegals.?
As predicted, no one bothered to read the article written by someone who knows facts not feeeeeeelings.

It's an opinion piece, not FACTS. And it's written by the bitter little Thomas Del Beccaro the former Chairman of the California Republican party and a failed candidate in the 2016 California senate race, he did so badly that he didn't even make it on the ballot, he came in third to Kamala Harris and Loretta Sanchez, poor thing it appears he still hasn't gotten over that
