California is Dying

Think about this there are over 14000 individual school districts and she has ZERO say over what happens.

Facts donā€™t matter especially when they destroy partisan memes.

The ED should be reduced to one office at HHS where they process grants for states and send out common standards for states to achieve on their own.

The entire department has never educated even a single student, yet they blow hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars enriching their friends.

Dept of Ed is yet another useless government waste.

They do nothing but redistribute wealth after they take their cut for expenses.

Why arenā€™t all of the businesses abandoning ship?

Because itā€™s damned expensive to move a business and it can cost you some, most, or all of the employees that helped you build and run it.

I have a lot of clients in CA that havenā€™t left yet but all of them are planning to bail as soon as they retire.

I refuse all business in California as I dislike their tax structure. More than enough in other states to keep me busy.

Thereā€™s been a huge exodus out of California over the last 25 years (from approximately 1995 to 2016 especially), but despite that the stateā€™s population has not decreased.
Undocumented immigration has more than made up for the people leaving the state.

The main parts of California donā€™t really have a middle class anymore (or at least not much of one left). The middle class in the Bay Area lives worse than the poor do in other states when it comes to housing, due to the extreme housing shortages and insane prices.

All the main cities in California are pretty much off-limits to young middle class families wanting to raise children.

Unless theyā€™re willing to live like some of the Mexicans, where 10 people will pile into a small 2-bedroom apartment, 2 different bunk beds in each bedroom and someone else sleeping on the foldout couch. Hate to be one of the 4 people sleeping in the bedroom with the baby crib.

If you want to solve homelessness, you have to accept that we choose to greatly reduce rights of the mentally ill and drug addicted at least while they are in that state. But it really could be for their own good because sleeping on the streets is just intolerable. But they really need to simply be taken custody of by the system. Tracking devices, blood monitors, treatment programs, housing, etc.

Hereā€™s the root cause of Californiaā€™s demise. The video is about 6.5 minutes long, but the commercial is at the end. The good stuff is in the first 5 minutes.

CALIFORNIA MAFIA

Californiaā€™s population dropped for the first time in the stateā€™s recorded history

By Cheri Mossburg, CNN

Los Angeles County lost population for the third straight year in a row, according to a new state report.

(CNN)Californiaā€™s population fell in 2020 for the first time since the state population estimates started being recorded due to Covid-19 deaths, a decline in immigration and a lower birth rate, according to the California Department of Finance.

Between January 2020 and January 2021, the state lost more than 182,000 residents, per population estimates and data released in a report by the department, bringing the total population to 39,466,855. That represents a 0.46% drop.

More than half of the decline ā€“ a loss of about 100,000 residents ā€“ was attributed to federal immigration restrictions, the report said, while deaths stemming from the Covid-19 pandemics accounted for the loss of about 51,000 residents, about 19% above the average death rate for the preceding three years.

The remainder, a loss of about 24,000 residents, was credited to fewer births, a nationwide trend that has impacted California more than other states, according to the report.

Additionally, 2020 was the third consecutive year that Los Angeles County, the stateā€™s most populous, lost population. L.A. County dropped 0.3 percent in 2018 and 2019 and 0.9 percent in 2020.

However, population growth remains strong in the interior counties of the Sacramento Valley, the Central Valley and the Inland Empire, while coastal and northern counties saw population losses, according to the report.

The report comes on the heels of the release of data from the US Census, which found that while the state remains the nationā€™s most populous, it will lose one of its 53 congressional seats for the first time.

However, the report indicated experts anticipated annual growth would resume this year.

ā€œAs pandemic-related deaths decline and with changes in federal policy, California is expected to return to a slightly positive annual growth when calendar year 2021 population estimates are released in May 2022,ā€ the report said.

The population of California has steadily grown from 4 million in 1920 to 40 million in 2020ā€¦.

It is the most populous state, the most geographically diverse state and the most prosperous state with an economy larger than most every other country in the worldā€¦.

Yes if your rich, there is no middle class, itā€™s either welfare or rich
