California leads the world in in odd things it does.
1) Quit cutting fire breaks into the forest and brush resulting in fires that can go until they burn themselves out.
2) $20 minimum wage for fast food workers. Yes, I can see how that will work. 
3) Mandate electric vehicles when your power grid can’t handle what you have now.
To be sure California isn’t the only state that makes you scratch your head. But it seems as though a lot of strange $hit starts there.
All the wild fires are generating smoke that is blocking out the solar panels too further crippling their power grid. Can it just fall off into the ocean already?

Been hoping that would happen for a long time!
30 years ago Gallagher was comparing California to a bowl of granola. “Everything that ain’t fruits and nuts is flakes”
Just make sure Nancy and Shifty Shiff are back in CA and not in Washington when it does. Could we be so lucky
I cannot understand a lot of things that go on out there and even more so I cannot understand why so many other states follow their lead????
I know one thing, never in my lifetime will I find one thing to make me want to visit it.
Build houses on mountain sides and expect others to help pay for it when heavy rains wash it down the hill, ( ya, I know, more places than there )
Build houses in a forest without cutting a firebreak, on a fault line, the list goes on.
The bad thing about it slipping into the ocean if it were possible for that to happen??
Those that survived and swam back to shore would find a place to live and continue breeding more of the same idiots.
Personally hope fast food gets priced out of business. They provide nothing positive for this country.
$20 hourly wage in CA is about $12 here.
They probably think your weird also
With the high taxes and all the government mandates all the major corpotations & an economy that would make it a powerhouse as a nation all that will go away soon, wait I heard that in the 70s, 80s, & 90s.
Love it or hate it, California isn’t going anywhere. It definitely wouldn’t be for me to live there, but I have been to the Palm Springs area quite a few times. If you’ve got deep pockets and love to golf…I can see the move or seasonal move to the area. That’s about all I’ve come up with.
The water crisis is far from a crisis. I’ll admit it’s a crisis when their golf courses aren’t immaculately more green than ours in MN/WI, and when their isn’t a pool in 2/3 of family homes. If animals are dying, land is going through desertification, and aquifers are drying up…they need to adjust usage further before I’d begin to feel sorry for anyone.
I can across this article from CNN Business, a good read that adds context to how and why California drives auto sales and what is offered.

Being that California accounts for about 15% of the US GDP and by itself would be the 5th largest economy in the world if California (like it or hate it) falters we are all going to suffer.
If you want to move to California you have to take Psych test. If you pass you can’t move there. 
Don’t forget damn near everything causes cancer in California.
Year round temps are great, fishing is great! I love the San Diego area!
Well, IF:
It wasn’t so crowded.
It wasn’t so expensive.
If it was closer to MN.
I was told many years ago, all the nuts roll to the W Coast.
I could fit in I ‘spose.
One thing you have to remember it’s not the whole state that is the problem. California has the same problems other states have. 3-4 cities/areas vote a$$ backwards and make decisions for the rest of the state. Remind anyone of another state?
I think California has a lot of rocks and cows too that would be worth saving.
