Poor California- I Feel Sorry for Them...

[Recyclersteve]

I was watching a video about Hurricane Lorena...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_-Z1D4qlzs (Headlines with a Voice- by Nancy Morgan Hart- Youtube- 9/20/19- 4:54 long)

It could potentially become the first ever hurricane in recorded history to hit California as a full blown hurricane. The person narrating the video rattled off the following list of problems the state is experiencing (ranging from the very recent to those lasting an extremely long time):

1. Mudslides
2. Earthquakes
3. Floods
4. Catastrophic fires
5. Typhus
6. Hepatitis
7. Bubonic plague potential in L.A.
8. Fukushima radioactive waste (since Japanese earthquake/tsunami occurred in 2011)
9. Record homelessness
10. Crumbling infrastructure (including largest earthen dam in U.S.)
11. Engineered drought of central valley (water that could have been used on farmland)
12. Sanctuary state policies
13. Hamstrung law enforcement
14. History of photofraud ensuring socialists will continue to destroy the state.

And now? Ocean temps are as much as 6 degrees higher than normal, increasing the probability of a first ever full-blown hurricane (Hurricane Lorena) to hit California. (Editor: If Lorena misses the mark, Hurricane Mario isn't far behind.)

Pray for our friends in California. Also, hopefully Thogey won't have to worry about the population of the Prescott, AZ area exceeding the population of Los Angeles anytime soon. Sadly, if you think that people in Florida are concerned about people from the Bahamas (Hurricane Dorian victims) flooding the area, you ain't seen nothin' yet.

My thought: All we need is a bad recession and/or hyperinflation on top of this and we will have some really serious problems on our hand. Can you imagine real estate in Blythe, CA (a real dump of a place- sorry to sound harsh) being worth more than that in Beverly Hills? I know it sounds impossible, but I'd hate to be rich and have all or almost all of my net worth tied up in super richly valued L.A. or San Fransisco area real estate. I say this as someone who lived in the Bay Area in the early 80's for a couple years.

Bull$hit!. California is a paradise and will continue to be so. Californians should stay and invest.

I have very strong negative emotions about Californios (refugees from the People's State of California who escape but want to make their new home into another People's State). None are nice enough to repeat in mixed company. The nicest thing I can say is, "Nancy Pelosi."

The weather is wonderful, Northern California is nice. Its such a tragedy what SoCal voters and their politicians did to the state. Their migration to Portland has caused Oregon to be reliably blue - California voters fanning out across the West are like a plague of locusts.
