Kick California out of the Union? Let's see: SNAP Participation: http://www.governing.com/gov-data/food-stamp-snap-benefits-enrollment-participation-totals-map.html Looks like California is on the low end here.

What about Federal Tax money taken compared to received? http://www.ritholtz.com/blog/2012/02/is-your-state-a-net-giver-or-taker-of-federal-taxes/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+TheBigPicture+(The+Big+Picture) Seems here that although California takes in slightly more than it pays out, at $1.09 for every $1 in taxes given, it's a lot better than other states, specially in the South who seem to be sucking up proportionally a lot of Federal money.

Or perhaps let's look at state spending vs revenue: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_taxation_and_spending_by_state. it seems to me that California is what's keeping a lot of the country afloat right now, ridiculous as that may seem to many on here. Many people may bring up California's high number of people on welfare, which is true but keep in mind that there are 38 million people living in the state. Thus, even if CA had a comparable percentage, it would be vastly higher than other states.

Also, just out of curiosity, why does GD hate CA so much?

Get rid of the SF Bay Area and the Los Angeles Basin.  The rest of CA is GTG.  By controlling the water, we can control the politicians of those two areas too.

Not just that, but they move to other areas of the country and thus destroy that state politically and economically.

It's population buying properties in other sates should be considered a war crime.

No need to fly off the handle, I'm just posting facts. Seems there's a lot of baseless hate towards CA here, and people seem to believe the people of CA live to move to red states and screw up everything for the people living there. I lived in CA for quite a while and the only ones I really saw leaving were generally people who thought they could get a bigger house/better standard of living for less money out of state, or right wing people fed up with the politics. Those who left for the bigger house generally did everything they could to get back in within a few years out of state.

Also, I voted for Romney, so yeah... DU probably wouldn't like me too much.
