    The fact is that California only creates about a third of the engineers that it uses, so the other two thirds come from the rest of the country. Most of the actors in California come from somewhere else. I could go on and on, but you get the point. Millions of people still go to California to find their fortune.

    And then millions of people leave California when they either found their fortune, or did not.
    It's pure numbers. Within the U.S. more people have left the state than come to the state for years.

    You know if all the locales you Trumpkins describe as "shitholes" actually did leave the US what would be left, including your gated villages, would resemble Albania, ain't a whole lot of value coming out of the Florida panhandle nor Victoria, Texas

    WRONG; because it is owned by the Democratic Party of the Jackass! I just moved from there to Florida.

    It would be worth it.
    "I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that's a storybook, man."
    — Joe Biden on Obama.

    Socialism is just the modern word for monarchy.

    D.C. has become a Guild System with an hierarchy and line of accession much like the Royal Court or priestly classes.

    Private citizens are perfectly able of doing a better job without "apprenticing".

    California is the 20th fastest growing state. That does not make it one of the super fast growing state, but does mean it is growing faster than 30 other states.

    About half of the population rise is internal growth, and about half is people moving to California. There are two general movements of people. Immigrants move into the USA and California, and then a generation or two later their descendants move out of California. And young people move into California from other parts of the country to find their fortune, and then many times later leave.

    Where do you live Walt? You seem to be an "expert" on everything you know nothing about.

    Sometimes it's hard making fun of Conservatives because even when you think you're exaggerating how dumb they are, they actually are that dumb.

    Yes, I was wrong. I didn't think anyone here would be stupid enough to believe that all of the forest fires, that have been a problem since Schwarzenegger was in office, are actually being caused by Democrats going around lighting trees on fire. You're stupidity has left me standing corrected.

    Not an expert, but I did see huge numbers of my classmates move to California. They keep trying to convince me to move.

    They do. They are being arrested for it. Feel free to look it up. Of course you will not. Snowflake. The truth hurts. Find a job yet?

    Cawacko actually lives there. Are the "huge" number of classmates like the "Naval" officers you know? The imaginary ones?
