California overtakes Japan to become world’s fourth-largest economy

Every state in the union benefits from the central bank being allowed to debase our enormous debt

GDP is based heavily on Government spending and Consumption. you idiot mouth breathers would consume a hole hell of a lot less without our ability to debase our debt

California would have their own currency if they were a county like Japan. All the benefits they currently have would vanish overnight if they were like Japan- and you fucking retards wouldn't have a clue what happened
 
I'm not proposing they do break up but all the talk about how bad one or the other would fail miserably if we do break up isn't reality.
Agreed. Same for those who claim one group is better than another.

I think you and I can agree that the White Supremacists are both wrong and immoral when they claim superiority simply due to their skin-tone and/or sex. Those who claim one region of America is better than another simply due to political or cultural differences are equally wrong and immoral, IMO.

Political divisiveness is harming the nation. Shame on those who are against unity and push divisiveness.
 
a US state is not the same as a country retardo. So economic comparisons are equally dumb. yet here you are - derping
California is effectively no longer a State of the Union. It's current form of government is dictatorship. They do not recognize the Constitution of the United States nor the Constitution of the State of California. Their representation should be removed in Congress.
 
I must admit that I haven't seen even a single EV big rig on our freeways. Far more likely to be a dilapidated diesel from Mexico, belching black smoke.
Not for long!
Covid is over.
Tell that to your king. He doesn't think so.
I will occasionally see some moron still wearing the virtue signal mask, but not very often. The Union Thugs shut down the port about every 10 years for a few weeks. Been about 5 years since the last time.
Yet the ports are still ineffective.
No one abandons land in California.
They already have.
The reason the Marxists shut off water is to convert farmland to high density housing.
I don't care what 'reason' they decide to use. The ranchers and farmers that abandoned their land is due to insufficient water and high taxes.
That's a bit of an exaggeration,
No, It isn't. I've driven on them (not very fast!).
but road maintenance on state highways leaves something to be desired.
What road maintenance??????
Bear in mind that Southern California is one massive city, From the ocean to Palm Springs, the city never stops.
So?
The cities are responsible for the streets in their jurisdictions. Some are better than others. Los Angeles country roads are a mess. Orange county does better.
Not by much!
Los Angeles finally outlawed shitting in the streets.
But they still do it.
San Francisco is still an open sewer. To the best of my knowledge, those were the only cities that ever allowed it.
And with that comes the cholera, the Plague, the polio, and other diseases caused by poor or non-existent sanitation.
I don't go to Los Angeles, ever. If I want to go to a big city, I go to either Riverside with the awesome Mission Inn district, or San Diego with the equally awesome Gaslamp district.
Then you go to the big city.
Joe Biden imported lots of fentanyl and started outright killing the druggies.
It's a hell of a lot more than fentanyl out there!
Both are political games. Shutting down the nuclear plants was utter stupidity, though.
That it was. The SDTC is no longer generating enough power to sustain themselves. They now import most of their power from out of the country, such as from Nevada, Oregon, etc. Those two power lines are heavily overloaded. If they trip, the WRIC will be forced to disconnect the SDTC load. The SDTC will go dark, since the SDTC has insufficient generating capacity. It will probably happen in the hot summer, with all those air conditioners and EV chargers running, and power lines sag more in hot weather.

Arson is a problem here, but some think it is actually the state itself that sets these massive fires.
Arson and other rampant crime, including a lot of violent crime.
The Socialist Dictatorship of the Territory of California.
 
Nope. Just pointing out that blue states wouldn't starve without the red states. They would just have to adopt a different life style. Red states would just have to adopt a different life style without the blue states. That lifestyle for the red states would probably mean a shorter life span but they would have access to most needs and amenities.
Bigotry.
 
Wrong Dutch Dork.

Texas is on the Gulf of America and location counts. California gets something like 90% of Asian shipping arriving in the US through its ports. Seattle is the only other port of significance on the West Coast. That means all that trade moves through California, even if most of it is going somewhere else.
This has changed...a LOT.

Since SDTC ports were shut down due to Covid, union problems, and crime, ships have been spending the extra fuel and time to go through the Canal to deliver to Texas and other southern ports, then shipping by rail BACK to the SDTC as necessary.
Texas' location makes it a poor destination for shipping traffic except from South and Central America, hardly the economic powerhouses Asia and Europe are.
Asia has had it's problems. So has Europe. China is now facing economic ruin, since people there aren't spending...they're saving, or just trying to get their wealth out of the country by any means possible. Money velocity is almost nil in China.

The tariff war currently being waged with China is not working out well for China at all. It is losing this war.

Japan and South Korea still export a lot of stuff to the United States, though.

Europe ships to the East coast and South coast ports.

They are their own country, but they try to act like a State.

Issuing their own currency would work, since the SDTC is already broke.

You are describing yourself again, Sybil.
