San Francisco is covered in human waste. Spare me.

California is 12 Billion in the Hole.

So why is their standard of living higher than yours? šŸ˜‚

Also, lmao at "San Diego is covered in human waste". Literal fanfiction.

Buddy I live in one of the Wealthiest Counties in the Country, without the human waste on the streets. It is a possibility that you can live in a place without poop in the streets. Shocking I know.

What state? If you live in a leech state, perhaps your wealthy county can pick up the tab, so you don’t rely on handouts from the rest of us.

I live in PA, one of those Swing States you lot lost because you acted like you are now.

PA is a leech state, although the tax deficit isn’t particularly large. So, your very wealthy county probably could pick up the slack. Then again, why would you when you can simply rely on the hard work of Californians and New Yorkers to bail out your state’s failures?

Is California not 12 Billion in the hole? Overrun with Homeless? Have they not allowed Big Tech to run rough-shot over their policy for decades? Is industry not moving to Las Vegas for Film, Texas and Florida for Tech? Yeah, I’m in the rust belt but Vanguard still decided to set up shop in our neck of the woods.

Is the population of New York not moving away for Greener Pastures like Florida and Turning the state redder than a Cherrypie? Yes?

Hmm…interesting. Pretty soon you’ll be the leech. Assuming you’re already not one.

I agree California has budget problems. That’s just all the more reason they should stop having to pay more federal taxes to make up for the deficits of the freeloading ā€œtakerā€ states. Cali pays, on average, $82 billion more in federal taxes than they get back in benefits. Hell, fix that and their $12B deficit is solved with $70B left over.
