I need it all in one thread to reference.
Every week some shitty law or policy comes out of that excuse for a state and I can't keep track of it. From what I've read here the Number one worst thing in CA is gun laws, but what else? |

Too much data for ARF servers to handle. Would crash the site.
|
|
Can we list the things that aren't wrong? It'd be a much shorter list.
|
|
You guys need to be more specific than "liberals"
I need examples. |
|
High taxes and cost of living, particularly in and around the cities. Terrible gun laws, which have been covered here in depth. Drought.
Apart from not being able to own the guns you want and having to pay a lot for the privilege, all while watching every drop of water that comes out of your tap California is pretty nice. |

Very generous welfare if your a loser.
Very high sales taxes Very high income taxes Crappy traffic jams High property values Very strict air pollution laws Cops are exempt of gun laws, even retired 25% of all drivers in California have no auto insurance Helmet laws Leash laws Lots of homeless bums Lots of cops Prop 47! High population, almost ungovernable....thus need more laws to control And this is off the top of my head.... But I highly encourage all losers and scum to move to California, it's a wonderful place to live if you don't want to work and are a criminal. |

View Quote A friend's father told me the biggest mistake California made was allowing non US citizens to attend public schools. This was the beginning of the immigration problem that California now has. |

everything is known to cause cancer but only in the state of California, ridiculous EPA regs on any internal combustion engines (weed eaters, lawn mowers, reefer units on trucks etc..)
|

Legislature is in session year round, allowing ample time for the Good Idea Fairy to rear its ugly head.

Im here visiting in rural California and i just fucking love it. I grew up here. But im far from people.
Just me and the almond trees. My dad collects early 70s ford trucks so hes largely immune to the smog laws. Get near a city though and it just plain sucks. |
|
In b4 Cali lovers start defending their state...of malfunction.
Edit: Fuck, so close. |
|
Mexicans with no fucking insurance and no idea how to stop a car besides plowing into the back of the vehicle in front of them.
Mexican drug dealers. Mexican neighborhoods. Homeless people. |
|
Most of the people who live there are fucked in the head. That's the only problem, really.
|
|
|
|
There are rules for fucking everything to keep us safe from ourselves.
The county even has a 15 mph speed limit for mountain bikes on the local hills, it's insane. I've written off anything that isn't on BLM or deep forest land. |

In the 70s and 80s this state didn't suck so bad. I'm constantly told by older friends and relatives it was a truly bitching place. |

It would be far easier to list the things that are not wrong with California.
|
|
|
It might be faster to list the good things.
1. It is sunny and has nice weather in the southern half. That is it. There is no more. See how fast that was. |
|
Leftist and RINO immigration policy has allowed 7 million illegals into California, turning a 50/50 Republican/Democrat state into a perpetually blue state. "Motor Voter" and other schemes allow the illegals to vote.
The Leftists and RINOs are doing the same thing to Arizona and Texas, so beware. |

It's winter break(surf) and it would be nice if was in June. People, miles and miles of people...needs to be scraped. Building condos over 40ft. thick of black silt topsoil farm ground should be punishable by death, an oil rig is ok though. New Yorkers, that's what we called them in the 70s, plaid pants pink shirt, white patten leather shoes.

Taxes are too high
Houses cost too much The politics are way too far left. I mean they keep reelecting fricking Nancy Pelosi! Gun laws obviously "Homeless" are treated like sacred cows Weather sucks in San Francisco (I've frozen watching 4th of July fireworks) I worked there for five years and commuted from Florida, people would ask me why I didn't move there, see above for my answer. |

In fact, for most of the state’s history, people born there did not represent a majority of California’s population. (Imagine, for instance, children born in New York who were brought to California as children, and who then moved to Washington or Oregon later in life.
https://www.nytimes.com/2014/08/15/upshot/the-california-exodus.html?rref=upshot That, and the fact that foreign immigrants make up a major portion of population growth. Think Vietnamese, any number of hispanic/latin populations, lots of Asians, particularly in Santa Clara Co. and San Francisco. Used to be around 50% of Californians were born here, now less than 20%. But, in the long picture California received its citizens from nearly everywhere else in the US at one time or another. It was a real dreamers place, not this fake "Dreamers" place of social justice and free education and welfare run amuck. About 6.7 million Californians have moved out of state. Easily replaced in numbers by foreigners. Real estate demand is still strong. |
|
27% of the population is immigrant.
http://www.maptheimpact.org/state/california/ Mexico, Phillippines, China No one in CA voted for that. In fact we voted against it. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Proposition_187 CA going left etc. was more a federal conspiracy. Things happen. |

When I lived there the things that really ground my gears were the following.
High sales tax High vehicle registration The gun laws The laws regulating off road motorcycles (red sticker bikes) Fires I miss the weather, food, and beer. |
|
It's the people. 75% of them are assholes and 60% of them are liberal assholes.
|
|
Men have to pay extra tax so women can take extended maternity leave.
Women who choose not to hatch crotch fruit also pay it. |

beautiful state, geographically diverse state, but it is just too crammed full of progressives, loons, commies, hippies, assholes, democrats, malcontents, and liberals.
Yeah, I know I'm from IL, but, at least we have sense enough to occasionally convict our asshole criminal politicians. |
|
One of the largest economies in the world plus stupid high taxes = just under 1 trillion dollars in long term debt??????
But CA pays out more in fed taxes than it receives! Sorry Fed spending on ss, medicare and defense means fuck all when measuring a states economic health. |
