FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda 
The American Dream
Thursday, April 19, 2012
Once upon a time, millions upon millions of young people dreamed of moving to California. Nearly endless sunshine, pristine beaches and a booming economy made it seem like paradise to many. But now those days are long gone. Unemployment is rampant, home prices have fallen like a rock, violent crime and gang activity are on the rise, local governments all over California are facing horrible financial problems, millions of illegal immigrants have poured into the state, traffic around the big cities is nightmarish and tax rates are absolutely outrageous. Plus there is the constant threat that your home could be destroyed by an earthquake, a wildfire or a mudslide. In recent years, hordes of hard working families have decided that they have had enough and have decided to move away from California. In fact, since the year 2000 more than 1.6 million people have moved away from the state of California.
There are still a few pockets of the state that are still very beautiful and that have been sheltered from the economic nightmare that is sweeping the rest of the state.
But in general, most cities in California are rapidly becoming giant hellholes.
Without a doubt, the “California Dream” has now become a “California Nightmare” for most residents of the state.
Do you live in California? If so, perhaps now is the time to move. The following are 16 really good reasons to move away from California….
#1 California Is Run By Elitist Control Freaks That Have No Common Sense At All
Politicians in California seem to love to impose absolutely ridiculous rules and regulations on the taxpayers. For example, many local governments in the state are now seeking to require that most new housing be built with at least 20 units on a single acre. This gives the phrase “being close with your neighbors” a whole new meaning. The following is from a recentWall Street Journal article….
Metropolitan area governments are adopting plans that would require most new housing to be built at 20 or more to the acre, which is at least five times the traditional quarter acre per house. State and regional planners also seek to radically restructure urban areas, forcing much of the new hyperdensity development into narrowly confined corridors.
There are many more examples of this “control freak” mentality. As I wrote about recently, one California town is actually considering making it illegal to smoke in your own backyard.
In some California cities you even need to get permission from the government to gather with your friends. For example, in San Juan Capistrano it is actually illegal to hold a home Bible study without a “conditional use permit“.
#2 California Is A Horrible Place To Do Business
For seven years in a row, CEOs ranked California as the worst place in the United States to do business. Thousands of good companies have left the state in recent years, and yet California lawmakers continue to pile on more rules, regulations and taxes.
#3 The California Economy Is A Gigantic Mess
The unemployment rate in California is still well above 10 percent. In fact, the number of people unemployed in the state of California is approximately equivalent to the populations of Nevada, New Hampshire and Vermont combined. In 2010, only about 37 percent of the entire population of the state of California had a job.
#4 Municipalities All Over California Are Going Broke And Will Soon Need To Raise Taxes Substantially Just To Survive
Did you know that Stockton, California is so broke that it recently started skipping debt payments? The following is from arecent Reuters article….
Badly hit by the burst of the property boom, California’s Stockton, with 292,000 people and east of San Francisco, has endorsed defaults on $2 million of debt payments and may file for municipal bankruptcy if it cannot reach deals with creditors. The California ski resort, Mammoth Lakes, is also bargaining with creditors in a bid to avoid bankruptcy.
But as bad as Stockton is doing, the truth is that Orange County may be in even worse shape. The following is from a recent article by Chriss Street….
Like the Titanic a hundred years ago that ignored warnings and ran full-speed into a massive iceberg, Orange County is taking enormous financial risks rather than addressing its gaping cash-flow deficit. The county quietly entered into $518 million of illiquid and unsecured interest rate wagers, mostly financed from payroll and savings accounts of local schools and other government agencies. With spending rising, revenue falling, and liquidity drying up, the danger of hitting another iceberg is becoming extreme.
Despite falling property and sales taxes, Orange County inexplicably increased spending by $145.8 million for this fiscal year, which ends on June 30, 2012. In an exceptionally selfish move to bail-out the county’s gaping budget shortfall, the Orange County Treasurer in November skimmed off $73.5 of property taxes that belonged to local schools and community colleges.
At this point, the Orange County Employees Retirement System is estimated to have a 10 billion dollar unfunded pension liability.
How does a single county dig a 10 billion dollar hole?
#5 Desperate Municipalities Are Severely Slashing Government Services All Over The State
When you have no more money, you have to start cutting somewhere. In many cities in California, government services are being curtailed dramatically. Just check out what is going on in Costa Mesa….
Costa Mesa, a city of 110,000 south of Los Angeles, has slashed its payroll from 611 to 450. It is selling its police helicopters and has hired a neighboring city for air patrols. It’s also pursuing a controversial effort to convert to a charter city from a general law city, which would give City Hall more power to outsource more work, said councilman Jim Righeimer.
In Oakland things got so bad that the police chief announced at one point that his department would no longer respond to certain crimes. The list of crimes included grand theft, burglary, car wrecks, identity theft and vandalism. Today, Oakland is considered the 5th most violent city in the United States.
In Stockton the budget cuts got so bad that the police union put up a billboard at one point with the following message: “Welcome to the 2nd most dangerous city in California. Stop laying off cops.”
#6 The State Government In Sacramento Is Flat Broke
Earlier this year, newspapers all over the state ran headlines declaring that California is running out of money again. Tax revenues are way down as many expenses continue to rise. California state government revenues for February 2012 were down by about 22 percent compared to February 2011.
Will California soon be paying their bills with IOUs again?
California taxpayers should realize that it is only a matter of time before lawmakers try to hit them with more tax increases of one form or another.
#7 California Has Some Of The Highest Tax Rates In The Nation
The last thing many California taxpayers want to hear is that taxes might be raised again. Californians already get absolutely hammered by taxes. California has one of the highest state income tax rates in the nation, one of the highest sales tax rates in the nation and the highest gasoline tax rate in the nation.
Unfortunately, it is only a matter of time before the politicians come around for even more.
#8 Poverty Is Absolutely Exploding In California
Once upon a time, California was viewed as a land of great opportunity.
Now it is a land of crushing poverty in many areas.
Sadly, the number of children living in poverty in the state of California has increased by a staggering 30 percent since 2007.
In addition, 60 percent of all students attending California public schools now qualify for free or reduced-price school lunches.
#9 The Is An Epidemic Of Crime And Gang Violence In California
Many families are deciding to move away from California because there are fewer and fewer areas that are still safe.
For example, the following story from Rancho Cordova, California that one of my readers sent me was featured in one of my previous articles….
When I first moved here, it was not a bad place, it was quiet and clean.
However, over the past three years this place has gone to the dumps there are thugs and unruly people everywhere.
I have prevented two car break-ins by scaring these thugs away.
While I was home on thanksgiving weekend, someone decided to break into my apartment.
They trashed my place stole all my items and even took my law enforcement (LE) vehicle to include my equipment.
I’m sure they had been watching me for a while because they did not take items that contained my identification.
Thank god, I had my weapon with me.
Fortunately the gentleman in that story was not there when his home was broken into. Thieves are becoming bolder and bolder and many home invasions happen whether there are occupants in the home or not.
The following home invasion story from Sacramento, California was sent to me by one of my readers a while back….
Somebody got into my sister’s house last night while she was out. My mom was upstairs, but didn’t hear anything. Whoever it was, they ate some chips and sorted through a stack of maternity clothes my sister had ready for selling on ebay. He left a dirty pair of boxer shorts and a bottom dentures on the dining room table. Fortunately, he was gone when she got home. I’m amazed, but the police actually came out and collected fingerprints and his boxers and false teeth. Probably a homeless guy. He may have switched his dirty boxers for a clean pair of maternity jeans, so the police just have to look for a guy wearing women’s maternity pants with no lower teeth.
Who does that kind of thing?
Unfortunately, when people get desperate they tend to throw out the normal rules that most of us live by.
Every state has crime, but things are getting particularly bad in California. A reader that works in law enforcement down in the Los Angeles area left the following comment on a recent article….
I work in law enforcement in LA (I fortunately don’t live there). LA is a third world country, trash everywhere, graffiti, gangs (mostly Hispanic). I’m sick of illegals primarily Mexicans (I’m American of Mexican descent). These liberal politicians will not stop aid to illegals which costs this state 21 billion dollars a year, which is about the same as our current deficit. I earn a pretty decent income and my wife has a meager salary, but it seems to get more and more difficult to earn a living in this state. If I can make it to retirement, I’m probably going to leave this state.
Another reader identified as Rob left the following comment….
I have lived here off and on for 42 years. Hellhole is not strong enough a word for it. One cannot go anywhere without seeing Graffitti from these gangs. Illegal Aliens are literally on every corner and every home depot. LA County alone spent 600 million in aid to illegal aliens not including education being factored in and the state spent 110 billion last year on just programs, welfare, aid to illegal entitlement programs, no ******** wonder why we are broke, the liberal agenda out here is astonishing, these liberals literally couldn’t see the forest through the trees. I am so sick of seeing Nortenos, Surenos, LaFamilia, and other hispanic gangs crowding our prisons, illegals underage having their anchor babies, illegals crowding the ER’s, crowding the schools. No wonder why the teachers are pissed off. I agree, this state sucks, and we will be moving very soon.
#10 As Poverty And Crime Grow Many California Cities Are Being Transformed Into Hellholes
Nature abhors a vacuum. As successful businesses and hard working families move away from California, other elements are moving in to replace them. Many formerly great California cities are now just a shell of their former selves. The following is an excerpt from a New York Times article that describes what is going on in Vallejo, California….
Vallejo is still in bankruptcy. The police force has shrunk from 153 officers to 92. Calls for any but the most serious crimes go unanswered. Residents who complain about prostitutes or vandals are told to fill out a form. Three of the city’s firehouses were closed. Last summer, a fire ravaged a house in one of the city’s better neighborhoods; one of the firetrucks came from another town, 15 miles away. Is this America’s future?
There are some parts of large California cities that are an absolute nightmare. For example, there is an area of San Francisco that is known as “Hunter’s Point” that is so run down that it is hard to believe that people actually live there. The following is what one reporter discovered on a visit to Hunter’s Point….
Abernathy and I cut through the complex, tromping over an expanse of dirt and concrete toward the northeast end of the development, where a row of apartments looked down from a grassy hill. We paused next to a vacant, boarded-over unit to take in the scene: A stream of ****, piss, tampons, and toilet paper spewed from a dark hole in the sidewalk, poured down the hill, and formed a sort of **** lagoon next to the street. Weeds, about six inches tall, were growing in the little lagoon.
Raw ****, obviously, is not cool. Beyond the fact that it smells and looks nasty, fecal matter provides a haven for dangerous bacteria, most notably E. coli, a virulent pathogen that can sicken and even kill humans, especially infants.
But it is not just the big cities that are being transformed into hellholes.
The following is how Victor Davis Hansen described what he experienced during his tour of the “forgotten areas of central California”….
Many of the rural trailer-house compounds I saw appear to the naked eye no different from what I have seen in the Third World . There is a Caribbean look to the junked cars, electric wires crisscrossing between various outbuildings, plastic tarps substituting for replacement shingles, lean-tos cobbled together as auxiliary housing, pit bulls unleashed, and geese, goats, and chickens roaming around the yards. The public hears about all sorts of tough California regulations that stymie business – rigid zoning laws, strict building codes, constant inspections – but apparently none of that applies out here.
#11 California Has Some Of The Worst Schools In The Nation
Many families are moving away from California because the public schools are absolutely nightmarish. The truth is that California has some of the worst schools in the entire nation. In the late 70s, California was number one in per-pupil spending on education, but now the state has fallen to 48th place.
#12 Political Correctness Runs Rampant In California
In California, control freaks love to run for public office, and once they get power they love to shove their personal agendas down the throats of everyone else. According to CNSNews.com, one new California law actually makes it mandatory for all public school children to receive instruction on the “role and contributions” that “lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender Americans” have played in the “development of California and the United States of America.”
#13 California Does Not Respect The Rights Of Parents
Over and over, the state of California has shown that it could not care less about the rights of parents. For example, according to Natural News a bill was recently passed in the state of California that allows health officials to vaccinate children as young as 12 for sexually-transmitted diseases without ever having to get the approval of the parents….
California’s Assembly Bill 499 has already quietly passed both the California House and Senate, and today sits on the desk of Gov. Jerry Brown where it awaits his signature. The bill, which is only a single page in length, contains specific language that will allow children as young as 12 to opt for sexually-transmitted disease (STD) vaccines like HPV (Gardasil, Cervarix), Hepatitis B, and any future vaccines developed to treat STDs, without having to attain parental consent.
#14 California Has One Of The Worst Health Care Systems In America
All over California, hospitals are shutting down. A big reason for this is because of the massive numbers of poor people and illegal aliens that are taking advantage of “free” medical care at hospital emergency rooms. A number of good hospitals have been forced to shut down in recent years and now the state of California ranks dead last out of all 50 states in the number of emergency rooms per million people.

#15 California – The Land Of The Lawsuits
If you live in the state of California, there is a really good chance that you will be slapped with a lawsuit at some point. According to the Institute for Legal Reform, the “lawsuit climate” in California is ranked number 46 out of all 50 states.
#16 The “Big One” Could Hit California At Any Time
The state of California lies directly along the infamous “Ring of Fire“. Approximately 90 percent of all the earthquakes in the world happen along the Ring of Fire and the “Big One” could hit the state at any moment.
So what do you think?
What advice would you give to someone considering whether or not to move away from California?

The biggest reason to move away from California is it’s coming judgment. Look up the Lord’s visions to Joe Brandt about California going into the sea…here is an excerpt.
Then, when it came. How it came. Like nothing in God’s world. Like nothing. It was the scream of a siren, long and low, or the scream of a woman I heard having a baby when I was a kid. It was awful. It was as if something- some monster- was PUSHING UP THE SIDEWALKS. You felt it long before you saw it, as if the sidewalks wouldn’t hold anymore. I looked out at the cars. They were honking but not scared. They just kept moving. They didn’t seem to know yet that anything was happening. Then, that white car, that baby half-sized one, came sprawling from the inside lane right against the curb. The girl who was driving just sat there. She sat there with her eyes staring, as if she couldn’t move, but I could hear her. She whimpered. Like a little girl. She made funny noises. I watched her, thinking of the other girl.
I said that it was a dream and I would wake up.. But I didn’t wake up. But I didn’t wake up. The shaking had started again, but this time different. It was a nice shaking, like a cradle being rocked for a minute, and then I saw the middle of the Blvd. seemed to be breaking in two. The concrete looked as if it were being pushed straight up by some giant shovel. it. It was breaking in two. That is why the girl’s car went out of control.. AND THEN A LOUD SOUND AGAIN, LIKE I’VE NEVER HEARD BEFORE…THEN HUNDREDS OF SOUNDS…ALL KINDS OF SOUNDS… children, and women and those crazy guys with earrings. They were all moving, it seemed, some of them above the sidewalk. I can’t describe it. They were LIFTED UP. and the waters kept oozing…oozing. The cries. It was awful. I woke up. I never want to have that dream again.
THE EARTHQUAKE
It came again. Like the first time which was a preview and all I could remember was that it was the end of the world. I was right back there–all that crying. Right in the middle of it. My eardrums felt as if they were going to burst. Noise everywhere. People falling down, some of them bad hurt. Pieces of buildings, chips, flying in the air. One hit me hard on the side of the face, but I didn’t seem to feel it.
I wanted only to wake up, to get away from this place. It had been fun in the beginning, the first dream, when I kind of knew I was going to dream the end of the world or something. This was terrible. There were older people in the cars. Most of the kids were in the street. But those old guys were yelling bloody murder, as if anybody could help them.. Nobody could help them. Nobody could help them.
It was then that I felt myself lifted up. Maybe I had died. I don’t know. But I was over the city. It was tilting toward the ocean-like tilting a picnic table. The buildings were holding, better than you could believe. They were holding. They were holding. The people saw they were holding and they tried to cling to them or get inside. It was fantastic. Like a building had a will of its own. Everything else breaking around them, and they were holding, holding. I was up over them-looking down. I started to root for them. Hold that line, I said. Hold that line. Hold that line. I wanted to cheer, to shout, to scream. If the buildings held, those buildings on the Blvd., maybe the girl-the girl with the two kids-maybe she could get inside.
It looked that way for a long time, maybe three minutes, and three minutes was like forever. Everybody was trying to get inside. They were going to hold. You knew they were going to hold, even if the waters kept coming up. Only they didn’t. I’ve never imagined what it would be like for a building to die. A building dies just like a person. It gives way, some of the bigger ones did just that. They began to crumble, like an old man with palsy, who couldn’t take it anymore. They crumble right down to nothing. And the little ones screamed like mad-over and above the roar of the people. They were mad about dying. But buildings die. I couldn’t look anymore at the people. I kept wanting to get higher. I kept willing myself to go higher.
Then I seemed to be out of it all, but I could see. I seemed to be up on Big Bear near San Bernardino, but the funny thing is that I could see everywhere. I knew what was happening. The earth seemed to start to tremble again. I could feel it even though I was up high. This time it lasted maybe twelve seconds, and it was gentle. You couldn’t believe anything so gentle could cause so much damage. But then I saw the streets of Los Angeles-and everything between the San Bernardino mountains and L.A. It was all tilting toward the ocean, houses everything that was left. I could see the big lanes-dozens of big lanes still loaded with cars-five lanes in one place, and all the cars sliding the same way.
Now the ocean was coming in, moving like a huge snake across the land. I wondered how long it was, and I could see the clock, even though I wasn’t there on the Blvd.. It was 4:29. It had been half an hour. I was glad I couldn’t hear the crying any more. But I could see everything. I could see everything.
THE OTHER CITIES
Then, like looking at a huge map of the world, I could see what was happening on the land and with people. San Francisco was feeling it, but she was not in any way like Hollywood or Los Angeles. I seemed to see it was the GARLOCK FAULT, not just the SAN ANDREAS that was rocking San Francisco. It was moving just like that earthquake movie with Jeanette McDonald and Gable. I could see all those mountains coming together-the Sierra Nevada, and the San Andreas and Garlock.
I knew what was going to happen to San Francisco-it was going to turn over, because of Garlock. It would turn upside down. It went quickly, because of the twisting, I guess. It seemed much faster than Hollywood, but then I wasn’t exactly there. I was a long, long way off.
I shut my eyes for a long time-I guess ten minutes-and when I opened them I saw Grand Canyon, that great big gap was closing in, and Boulder Dam was being pushed from underneath. And then, Nevada, and on up to Reno. Way down south, way down Baja, California, Mexico too. It looked like some volcano down there was erupting, along with everything else.
I saw the map of South America, especially Colombia. Another volcano-eruption-shaking violently. Venezuela seemed to be having some king of volcanic activity. Away off in the distance, I could see Japan, on a Fault, too. It was so far off-not easy to see, because I was still on Big Bear Mountain, but Japan started to go into the sea. I couldn’t tell time, then, and the people looked like dolls, far away. I couldn’t hear the screaming, but I could see the surprised look on their faces. They looked so surprised.. They were all like dolls. It was so far away I could hardly see it. In a minute or two it seemed over. Everybody was gone. There was nobody left.

Reason #17…It’s Mexico
I’m sure there are a lot of reason’s other than the 16 listed. The author should have added to the the article’s title: “if you are able”. Often times moving to another locale is worse than staying where you were. BTW, if you do live in California, and are awake, I’m sure that you are already aware of the information above and more.

All of this has gone on for a very long time.
When I lived in cowtown Sacramento, the “police” were a local joke. Report a crime and right away piggy would answer with, “Did you see them do it? Are you sure they did it? It’s their word against yours, and nothing you can do about it.” When I reported that I DID have witnesses, piggy was VERY reluctant to take the report. Needless to say, there was no follow-up, no prosecution.
When people report on drug houses, piggy refuses to stake them out. In fact, they refuse to do ANYTHING. When one meth lab exploded and caught fire, neighbors waited ten minutes before they called 911.
Illegals are fond of parking their cars in the middle of roads and having conversations. Of course, piggy refuses to clear the road. Before I left, a bunch of illegals parked on I-5 (south of Stockton), and had a party. Traffic became so blocked that piggy FINALLY came out and broke it up.
If you want to start a business, you need a business license. To KEEP the business license, you must collect a certain percentage of sales tax, or lose the license. Never mind the fact that your business may be on the INTERNET and that people from other states and countries PATRONIZE YOU, you need to shell out or lose the license. Wonder why eBay and Etsy are so popular amongst sellers?
The gangs have been a problem for YEARS, with piggy doing nothing about it. It is only when they have been getting NATIONAL ATTENTION that it is admitted that there IS a gang problem. Still piggy does nothing.
In California, if you DEFEND yourself, you go to jail. Perps walk, piggy seizes your firearm.
In order to get a job, or even any JUSTICE, you have to be someone’s good buddy. No friend in government, the piglice, or “justice” system? Crawl in a corner and die.
One time I chewed out a pig for their lack of response to the vandalism reports I made. Piggy’s response? “THEN MOVE!” So I did. Wonder who’s paying piggy’s salary? Welfare doesn’t.
I was SO GLAD I finally got to move out.
I was never a California native, thank God.

The beaners have already taken Santa Barbara, the new frontline is San Luis Obispo. If you are white and live in Santa Barbara you do not DARE to send your kids to public schools. The public schools here are just babysitting Mexicans for their parents, because most of them do not enter elementary school speaking ANY ENGLISH, so how are they supposed to learn?

I lived in Southern Ca for over 40 years. Used to be a nice place. It is worse than what people have put down here. I did have to laugh though at #1 new housing to be built at 20 or more to the acre…..Where are you going to find an acre? there is not 1 strawberry field, orange or lemon grove left to build on. Asphalt and cement from the beach to the mountains. Now I live in the south. Thought I could escape….LOL….all those fleeing NY, NJ, CA are here with their great ideas of how to make it just like the home they tried to escape. Makes me crazy.

bullshit…I left
I just moved from Oceanside, CA about a year ago. We lived there and in Sand Diego for 2 years. I will have to honestly say that I agree with most of this list and wholeheartedly agree with the school system being messed up. My younger son went to grades 2 3 there and my older went to 7 8. Both of them are now seriously struggling to get to where they need to be for the East-Coast school levels. For example, at the beginning of the year my son was asked to write his spelling words in cursive but he could not; he was never taught that! Now after much practice and focus, he is able to write in legible cursive.
The beaches are filthy and inhabited by all the homeless people. The traffic is suffocating. The overall feeling of the place is tension which makes everyone miserable. *Sigh* one of the worst places I have ever lived. The land is beautiful, but we have destroyed it with our human-parasitic ways.
On another note, California is not going to fall off into the ocean, even as much as some of us hope that it does… it’s not scientifically possible. Sure, it may be part of the ring-of-fire, but the fault in California (San Andreas) is a transform fault line… this means that the two sides move along each other.

@ reel2real:
My Dad rented a beach house in Oceanside for one week. There were bums everywhere. For $20,000 a month rent, you would expect less riff raff. You could not find parking within a mile of the beach house itself. What a hell hole. Why in god’s name would you live in california?
Oceanside was such a dump that I will never go back.

@realtoreal: You had me till you blamed the whole situation on humanity. Human-parasitic ways. That means that you and your kids and all the people you love are nothing more than parasites. You may want to rethink that.
These 16 reasons could be applied to anywhere USA.
Wake up and smell the stench of a corrupted elitist US political Roman empire.
Reason NR2 is TRUE;I know a big IT company who moved 3 years ago from California to Taiwan and they make more money in Taiwan then in USA
They said many other companies also relocated to Asia as well

I heard the CFR being quoted as saying that in order to be able to implement the NWO three key things must first happen in this country:
1. destroy America’s military
2. destroy America financially
3. destroy America morally
Even mighty Rome fell victim the same way, from within itself…
Many of us have decided to stay and when the uprising comes we will push the ruling scumbags into the sea and set up a REAL constitutional republic. We will live as truly free people free of career politicians and frivolous lawsuits. Until then our burden is to live under the radar until our day of liberation comes.
Remember all the Californians that sold their homes for hundreds of thousands of dollars more than they bought it for? Think of the wave of people that have left California, pocketed hundreds of thousands of dollars on the sale of their homes, bought homes in other states for cash, saved or invested the difference and drove up real estate values in the states they moved to. Also, think about the difference in wages these Californians experienced when they moved from California to some of the other states they moved to. They can probably work for whatever the local prevailing wage is and get by because their home is likely paid for so they don’t have mortgage payments, which is a great equalizer. Now, think of those Californians that didn’t get out while they could. They are stuck with homes that have lost hundreds of thousands of dollars in value. Talk about upside down. California has had this liberal government that has given away the store for many many years now. The government of California needs to grow a pair and totally stop giving away the store. US citizens should never have to pay for illegals, in any way shape or form and Californians have been doing so for many many years. It has to stop.

I don’t think this is a good time to “own” a house. If it’s time to go, I want to go.

@Imrightyakn0w: In the early 90′s, 1994 I think. We had a Proposition to NOT give any benefits like healthcare, welfare, food stamps, etc. to illegals. The proposition was passed by a large margin. A judge then overturned it by saying it was “unconstitutional”. That was the end of it.
Illegals are also able to vote. Did you know that? On the voting registration there is a little box and asks “Are you an American citizen?’ with two boxes one for yes one for no. All you have to do is check the yes box. There you go! You can now vote. You don’t have to prove it. What?!?! Did you think that anyone who would sneak across the border was above lying?
All Calforinans have to have auto insurance. Illegals don’t. Don’t believe me? Get in an accident.
Back in the 90′s when the lottery came to town Californians had to take it vote. The lottery was sold to us by saying that a certain amount of money that came in from the lottery would go to the schools. The old “for the children” routine. Well the lottery was passed. The state then deducted all the monies the schools received from the lottery from the amount the state gave to the schools. Who got the money? The state.
There is so much more.

I had a neighbor that moved next to me and he was from California. He said he left for many of the reasons pointed out here in this article. The people have to take it back, the absolutely have to take it back. Like Judge Napolitano says “does the government work for us or do we work for the government”?
I like the writer basically ignoring simple economics. He seems to bitch about programs and services being cut yet then says taxes being raised is bad. Well shit, you HAVE to do one or the other if you wan to be in a better position financially.
When I see people bitch about taxes being raised AND programs/services being cut to save money I just shake my head and realize those people have zero concept of simple math and see why there is such an issue in our society with debt because so many people are too clueless to understand this simple fact.
With uncontrolled immigration from other cultures, soon every place in the USA will look like the golden state.

It’s not so golden anymore…it’s more like a rusty messkin brown
And where, pray tell, should all us Californians move to?
I live in a suburb of San Diego and I love it here. My husband has a great job. My kids go to an excellent school district. We have a pediatrician who is supportive of our decision not to vaccinate. The weather is perfect. We are happy.
The possibility of “the big one” is no worse than the recent tornadoes in the midwest leveling towns.
The financial situation is no worse than most municipalities and states in the U.S.
It seems to be trendy to trash the entire state of California, but just like anywhere else, some parts are better than others.
For those saying that Oceanside is gross and they would never live in San Diego because of Oceanside – that’s like saying that Compton is gross, therefore all of Los Angeles is. They are miles apart. I live in San Diego and wouldn’t live in Oceanside, but I would live in Carlsbad, which is right next to Oceanside.
Unfortunately, the rest of the U.S. is not far behind. I live work in East Texas. Some of the problems listed here also apply to my state.
Well don’t come to the South. We have more than enough of you people who’ve shit in your own nests wanting to come here and do the same to ours. Stay the hell out! You’re not welcome!

You got a lot of messkins down yonder ?
Shocking Forbes Report: Bluest/Democrat States are Most Broke Going Bankrupt; Because of Unions, Pensions, Costly State Programs Social Services:
If anybody really wants to know as to why Republicans are making a BIG comeback, it doesn’t take too far to look for the answers. There is a track record that proves, Democrats are total FAILURES, when it comes to sound fiscal policies.
What’s truly amazing folks, most of the Democrat Leaderships in the U.S. congress, including this American president, they all come from these failing blue states. And they want to enact fiscally dangerous policies, like healthcare, Cap and Trade and more?
In a stunner of an article, written by Forbes Magazine, tells it all that we need to know about Democrats, for those, who are extremely concerned about our nations financial and economic situations, need to be aware of.
It’s not surprising at all. I live in Sad Sack City of San Francisco progressives, and in the sorriest state of Pelosi’s California. I just live to write about it. It’s something I’ve been saying all along in my blogs, here and there, but there’s concrete proof now.
Democrats and their party ideals are truly bankrupting this nation and our states. This explains as to why progressive liberal Democrats like to expand government, and tax folks into oblivion.
“Why do Democratic states appear to be struggling more than Republican ones? It comes down to stronger unions and a larger appetite for public programs, according to Kent Redfield, professor emeritus of political studies and public affairs at the University of Illinois’ Center for State Policy and Leadership.
California is Exhibit A in the case for what happens when you embrace and implement liberal utopias. Progressive taxation: yup, they’ve got it in space, so much so that state revenues look like a roller coaster.
Strong unions that enable hundreds of thousands of government workers to live middle class, I mean, upper middle class lives, especially after they retire at age 55 with their pensions determined by their peak earning years (goosed with overtime and cash payments for unused vacation and sick days).
Robust programs to support the needy, including the thousands of drunk and drug-addicted homeless people who despoil every public space in what otherwise would be a lovely city–San Francisco–and actually get paid by the taxpayers for doing so.
Expensive gasoline and energy because big oil companies and utilities are evil despoilers of the earth who shouldn’t be allowed to provide people with a product they want at a price they want to pay. No, government needs to intervene to set prices higher, where they should be.
And on, and on.
Not that long ago, California’s leaders invested in human and tangible capital in partnership with business. They built a water supply infrastructure to support its agriculture. They built arguably the best university education system in the country, including centers to support its growing economy such viticulture. It encouraged high tech innovation that would change the world and provide millions of jobs.
That is now over.
Businesses are fleeing the state and high income individuals are finding residence elsewhere. Government runs what amounts to a one-party State with all that that implies — the corruption, the waste, the self preservation, the shake down of citizens, the resort to ideology to manipulate the masses — especially the green agenda.
What once was a beautiful state and an economic engine that was a goose laying golden eggs is now a goose being consumed. When businesses finish moving away, all that will be left will be liberal governance, clean air, and no jobs.
I am 64 years old. I lived in California when it was conservative and prosperous; before the beaches were blanketed in bodies, from south to north. There were days when we would go to the piers, and it was almost abandoned in appearance. Everything was clean, and you felt safe,………….you were. It smelled good, and there were days, when you were inland farther, among the groves of oranges and grass; when the wind came off of the ocean, the smell of salt, and the thought of waves, stirred your soul. My friend and I hitchhiked, and wandered much of southern California; two poor but resourceful young men, drifting in Eden.
Know we know how the indigenous people felt. I can’t help but see a poetic, ironic, justice, being played out through time.
This is just the start for America. This may be the last spring, of free travel, ……………………..so?………………………………………….pick a country where you will feel the most accepted, and where you can best adapt, to new system of things. The LORD himself, in prophecy, instructs us to flee the Whore. The Remnant he speaks of, are those who will spare themselves her horrible fate. It is our choice. The LORD has said that there will be a remnant, who will come out of the Whore, previous to her destruction, and hellish punishment. Find the Whore, and you will know who the Remnant are. They are the obedient to the word of GOD, GOD’S people, whom he wishes to spare his wrath.
I hear that they are now allowing the possession of hunting weapons, or rifles, in Canada. There are many fine Christians in Canada. This is a religious war, and we are religious refugees. They set up States as sovereign, so that people could move away from laws and rules, that they did not agree with. This whole country is Federalized, and to vote with your feet these days, you have to move out of country. Canada is huge, and has sparse population. What you have learned here in America, will have value in Canada as well. Learn how to make something! Start over.
I have lived in Calfornia since i was 10 years old my parents moved here when my dad got out of the Airforce. The enviornemt is terrible and the politicians dont seem to care they cater to the illegals constantly as one of the few employed californians i find the state and local governments use us a a nonstop source to fund more and more idiotic projects and provide less and less for our tax dollars. If it wasnt for my job of 16 years I would be gone most of my family moved away years ago they are in Alasaka where people are actually still free! the remaining members are getting ready to move there also. my daughter moved to nevada last year she was born and raised here and couldnt get a job shes now employed and attending college in Nevada where citizens can actually get into college and get a decent education. The politicians in this state only care about themselves and catering to the illegals who cant vote? I still dont understand this but once we are all gone how they fund this mess they have built wont be my problem. We have less and less freedom and it costs us more by the day to live here. I keep hoping the politicians will coem to their senses but i fear im suffering for some sort of Hallucination from long term liberal exposure. Its a sad state of affairs they want to take our guns but we have no police protection they want to release thousands of convicted criminals to cut prison costs. Im afraidn this state will soon be completley lawless we have plenty of law makers we are just sadly lacking in officers to uphold the existing laws.
