    Exactly. The medium price for a home in California is about $550K. Think about that for a minute. L.A. medium is like $900K, San Jose is over $1 million, and SF is like $1.5m San Diego is around $850,000.

    If the middle class goal in America is to own your own home you think that's happening here? It's a state for rich and poor.

    It's amazing how illiterate drug addicted wife beaters are some how able to vote yet so many educated liberals aren't.

    Not enough to reach a majority apparently...

    Candidate Party Popular Votes
    Donald J. Trump Republican 62,980,160
    Hillary R. Clinton Democratic 65,845,063
    Gary Johnson Libertarian 4,488,931

    Rural white morons are an ever shrinking minority. Get ready for a permanent ride in the back of the back, white redneck idiots.

    18 months until it becomes permanent and final. Don't like it? Go fuck yourselves and move to another country.

    Who said anything about a majority? How can anyone who is illiterate and drug enabled get an ID and vote and yet educated (liberals) people can’t get an ID and vote?

    Yet California leads the USA in poverty, homelessness, and income inequality.

    Look at the bolded above. Lorax and I have often bemoaned the fact that politics is so Rural vs Urban and often leads to such vitriol from opposing sides. But it is. A difference in values (not just religious), way of life and way of thinking. And that last sentence....I’ve seen it before used by both sides, yet here we are.

    It is unfortunate. Diversity comes in many forms and that includes both rural and urban living.

    Absolutely agree...with both sentences. I have so many friends from the city and we love sharing our various regional experiences when we visit. It is sad what this nation has come to. I’m hoping it’s still the minority of folks who feel this way but am not confident.
