    Default Sanctuary state fail



    SANCTUARY IN GOVERNOR MOONBEAM'S SAFE SPACE




    Liberal California and conservative Texas are different in many ways – including their poverty rates.

    California’s poverty rate is 20.4 percent and the Texas rate is only 14.7 percent, based on the Supplemental Poverty Measure, which accounts for the regional cost of living, out-of-pocket medical expenses and other items.

    Why the dramatic difference in poverty between California and Texas – proportionately 38.8 percent higher in the Golden State, and affecting the lives of millions of people? And what can we as a nation learn from the success of Texas and the failure of California to hold down their poverty rates?

    Three big factors are responsible for California having more poor people and Texas having fewer as a portion of their state populations:

    1. California has high state and local tax rates, while the rates in Texas are low.
    2. California has a generous welfare system that acts as a disincentive to work, while Texas incentivizes people to get jobs.
    3. California’s many burdensome regulations raise the cost of living and act as roadblocks to development, while inflating housing costs. So a family needs to have a higher income to get out of poverty in California than it needs in Texas.


    California has the nation’s highest marginal state income tax rate – 13.3 percent. Texas is one of seven states without a state income tax.

    The higher taxes are, the less money families have. High taxes mean employers have less money to hire new workers and raise the salaries of workers already on their payrolls.

    And there you have it, well known facts are not important to liberals, they pawn their fiscal financial woes off on federal aid.
    But the party will end eventually, cut off that aid, which will happen if they keep their lawless policies in place,
    and the good people of the state will vote them out

    just a matter of time

    SANCTUARY FOR ALL IN THE DEMOCRAT PARADISE


    Some 1 out of 3 Americans who receive federally qualified welfare payments –Temporary Assistance for Needy Families – are Californians.

    California has expanded Medicaid (called Medi-Cal there), to cover 13.5 million people. About one-third of state residents are enrolled in the health insurance program for the poor funded by the federal government and the state.

    On the jobs front, California’s environmental and energy policies have created costly and burdensome regulations that have accelerated the shift of manufacturing and other jobs out of the state and out of the country to China and other nations.

    When combined with generous welfare payments, this has resulted in fewer adults participating in the workforce in California than the national average.

    What idiot would live in Texas instead of California if they had the chance? California is like 10x better. The only reason you'd live in Texas is if you're white trash and can't do better.

    Have you shared this opinion with Zappacrite and Covfefe yet?

    Thanks Watermark, actually Houston is quite liberal and diversified.

    SHOPPING IN DEMOCRAT HEAVEN


    As for affordable housing, California lawmakers know they have a problem. But their proposals to fix it are more of the same: bigger government, more borrowing, and higher taxes to pay for more government housing – while telling homebuilders what to build.

    Instead of continuing on this course, elected officials should fix the terrible state of property rights in California. After New Jersey and Maryland, California is the third least-free state when it comes to housing regulation.

    Development fees, global warming carbon dioxide concerns, restrictive zoning, and other barriers act to create a massive artificial scarcity of housing in California. This pushes the cost of a home beyond reach for the middle class, while making rent virtually impossible for the poor.

    In sharp contrast, housing costs in Texas are far more affordable.

    While the average listing price for a home in California is nearly $698,000, the average listing price for a home in Texas is less than half that – $320,000.
