California Is Hypocritical - And Response

Re:  Roy Exum: California's Foolishness

This is the ridiculousness that has always been California, land of fools and the extremist liberal hypocrite state. ("We" can punish "you" because "we" don't like what "you" stand for but don't punish "me" because "you" don't like what "we" stand for.) 

Dear California, please drop anchor somewhere else because you're a large portion of what's wrong with America's current mental state.

I'm sure we would "all" be much better off, plus this way you could live in your fantasy world while we live in the real one.

My good friend Roy certainly hit the nail on the head with his piece on Kalifornia. Hard to believe 30 years ago it was the national model for all the states to follow. Then the Democrats took over and just like Detroit, Chicago, Illinois, Baltimore and other places run by Dems it has declined in every aspect of livability. 

California leads the nation in pollution with six of the most polluted cities: Bakersfield, Visalia, Fresno, Modesto, San Francisco and Los Angeles. 

In the most recent Nation's Report Card it placed 48th, ahead of only DC, New Mexico and Alabama and behind Mississippi. 

In the most recent Mercatus rating of the fiscal condition of states, California was 44th. 

I would suggest that California might authorize funding for its employees to visit Republican states and they might actually learn how to run a state.
