Cue the obnoxious California Tourism Department ad on how California does things differently.
Why hasn't anyone made a parody video, using film of the feces on the streets, scenes like this with the homeless going wild, along with the scariest image, the entire California congressional delegation?
Insurance companies are starting to raise premiums and looking into cancelling policies in residential neighborhoods with homeless encampment as when the temperature drops the homeless do what they can to keep warm in the hypothermia death capitol of America.
Cali has become a lost State, but again .... their choice!
If California, which now has the 5th-largest economy in the world, was lost to the United States, we'd probably slide right into that big recession, immediately. And does anyone have any documentation about the number of fires in L. A. that can be attributed to homeless encampments? Is it just an exaggeration to make a political point, that there are many of them?

I can tell you've never been there. It's the land of wall-to-wall subdivisions and strip malls. For hundreds of square miles. It isn't poor people buying those homes and doing all that shopping.
I have my doubts re that poster ever having been to a third world country either.

I was born and raised in SF Bay Area (Palo Alto). Spent my first forty years living in many different areas of CA.
Graduated from Cal Poly in SLO. And grad school at UC Davis. So yes, I know CA well.
And yes areas/neighborhood s of CA are definitely becoming third world......
