 A couple headlines on the LA Times website today speak volumes. |

All branches, not just the Governor!
That's because they're all fucking DEMONRATS!!! They've fucked up the entire state, they're not listening to the people, they don't give a shit! All they want to do is create the utopian state where they're in charge and you are all SLAVES! That's right, SLAVES, do what they tell you to do! Go to work, go home, sleep, pay your taxes, sleep, don't step out of line, do what they tell you, sleep... That's right SLAVE, keep doing what we tell you to do! It's fucking pathetic and if you don't do what they want, you're a racist, bigot, liar, white supremist, trouble maker.... That's how they keep you in line, threaten you with a label! The problem is, the people leaving aren't all liberals and Demonrats, some are conservatives that just can't take it anymore! I just hope that Newscum gets recalled as it will destroy his political career, hopefully forever! |

Just spent the weekend in PHX, AZ. They all told me that the "wrong" people are coming in. Left wingers with "Cal Values". They've sold their CA houses for big money and are driving up the PHX home costs.
And they're all voting D. |

180 my ass
We’ve had that move out of contra costa alone. They are offsetting the number with the influx of illegals. I read somewhere for every 1 new person that moves in 7600 leave. I think it’s high but not far off. |

About a year ago I posted some stats reported about the stream of people leaving San Francisco. It was a BIG number, like 30%. I looked but could not find the post. It's probably archived.
I've been watching housing prices across the US. They have jumped, a step function, by $100k - $200k (30%) in the last year. What was $300k is now $400; $450k is now $600k. These prices are in areas which have very high energy costs, too - AC all summer; heating most of the fall & winter. Many areas also have very high property tax rates, as well. We waited too long to leave. :-( |

Meant to mention this -
This phenomenon is not happening in one State. It is happening in every city and State we are considering; everywhere, all over the US. |

California has 12% of the Nation's population (40M / 328M).
Imagine what would happen to States like Wyoming or Vermont (the two least populous States) if just 1% of California moved there. It would almost double the population of those States. |

I could have left by now.
I’ve had 2 offers from 2 companies to buy mine Tons of equity in my house. My problem is I’m only 52 I cash out and leave with 1.5 mil or so and repurchase everything and start over ? For me at my stage in life it wouldn’t be a good financial move . |

Timing is everything in these matters.
Leaving only makes sense if/when the timing is right for YOU. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Some of us are the right stuff. 15 years now. Yep, my comment was directed at population and not just a certain type of people. The valley has gotten way too crowded. Lakes and mountains are packed, housing and urban sprawl has exploded. AZ is full. That is my point. Well, the fact that we are now Libtard blue doesn't help either. |

As someone who lives there I sure don’t notice it. Seems like just as many people as ever and housing costs in CCC and Alameda are insane. |

I retired Tuesday.
I packed up the house on Wednesday. I sold my home on Thursday morning and left the state that afternoon. I got to Michigan by Monday. Not planning on ever going back. The politics, the people, the pollution. The state has become unpalatable in the extreme to the point where i cut ties and fled. Good luck guys. Home is not where you were born. Home is where you stop escaping. |

I sold my home in a day for $33K more than asking at just better than $220 a square foot.
Termites and and gangs. The 40 acres of beautiful MIchigan and the wonderful executive home was $80 sq.ft. |

I’m 61 and did just that. The $75,000 a year that 1.5 will produce a year will do you fine* in these parts.  *Depending on your appetite for suppressors, SBR, or other NFA toys. |

LOL Rather than just pretend to do something have you actually ever, I don’t know, in a crazy moment, actually thought about actually doing anything about it. Running your mouth is a start but think about doing something more productive if you really believe in AZ. Once I establish a legal residence I plan on getting involve with my local community. Please get involved at whatever level you can. |

I have thought about early retirement but losing that much money in early withdrawal penalties would make my nuts fall off. I’m stuck for at least 2 more years . |
