I’m not so sure they should be quick to thank CA. The citizens move East, but they don’t learn from the mistakes that caused them to move East. They bring their politics that are destroying CA with them and are spreading the blight rather than effectively fleeing it.

Lol. I don’t doubt it. And I am not laughing at you, I am laughing/crying with you.
Economic growth in conservative Virginia (where I live) has far outpaced growth in Maryland and the District for the last 10 years. Virginians also enjoy better schools and lower taxes. So guess what is happening? All the hypocritic liberals are leaving MD and DC and moving to Northern Virginia (because of the better schools and lower taxes)...and voting in Democrats...who are raising spending and taxes...and slowing our growth...unbelievable.
wow. There’s going to be one hell of a hangover :(
