Capital investments everywhere but CA are the reason the economy is at full employment.

Nobody wants to invest in CA

because it's not profitable
15:18
This wasn't true in the recession
15:18
it was the ONLY profitable investment, again, due to tech

And yet California is still doing extremely well

It’s a matter of how much they are willing to invest

CA's bottom of the states in quality of life, education, public services, highest in the nation homeless rate (over 25% of the nation's homeless, over 38% of the nation's welfare recipients), only 12% of the nation's population...
There is a reason why amazon HQ2 didn’t go to Mississippi

And selective inclusion of certain federal funding, like transportation system grants, which smaller state populations that don't really use that infrastructure, yet shipping companies and traffic to inner states cause load on, require federal funding
15:23
But ignore things like federal judicial support grants, national forest grants, military spending, border protection, and other spending
15:23
Yeah. It's easy to make up a story of any given state being top or bottom in giver/taker status
CA's been coasting on the success of the tech industry since the 90's. That's one recession cycle.

Prior to that it was oil

It's got a massive wealth of natural resources to start and the tech resources last time

What's it got this time around that no other states have?

Ports. That's it.

Ports and farming I suppose (coming from someone who grew up in Utah)
15:26
Utah's sort of turning that way too. Other than our massive copper mine, it's tech.

It's sabotaged its farmlands and agricultural industry, it's sabotaged its natural resource industry, it's sabotaging the social structure with the socialist push. Social programs only work when backed by capitalist incomes; e.g. European examples. Couple with the ever-increasing social load and promises that require more income dependency on productions..

They are building apartments and high density housing but can't keep up with the demand. People leaving CA can out bid everyone on houses so the housing prices are skyrocketing

Bottom line is CA has nothing special about it any more. Nothing to cushion the pop

We were talking apartments earlier and the prices (excluding SF) in the Bay are not that much more than SLC proper.

If the government were smart it'd be following the federal example and cutting costs, bloated programs, and investing in exportable goods to diversify its economic profile

Granted you can go out into the suburbs from SLC for afforable housing but then you are dealing with awkward culture/social issues that make it hard as gay and furry.

You can buy what you want when you want with no direct trading fees. They do make money on the trade because they send the purchase to a third party who makes pennies on the trade

Haha so I'm going through my stuff right now and packing and its like... so much easier to let go of stuff I've been holding onto. When you have to drag it across twoj states it makes it easy just get rid of it lol
I dunno, I usually try to do my best at dissecting and understanding political issues and stuff. ;>.>

It's a complicated thing though. It's much easier just to pick a team you mostly agree with and go all-in with them without digging any deeper. I can't really blame people for doing that.

I remember making myself another Twitter account recently after my old one from 2014 started collecting dust. And now that one I don't seem to use that much anymore either lol

Or maybe life on my side is boring. I dunno
