And they're bringing their liberalism with them, God help us all.
I live here, in Ca. I see out of state plates, for months, (driving my kids to school). These people live here with out of state plates. I see only a few moving in my community. It usually because they want the big $$$ out of their homes and move out of state only to be able to pocket the $$$'s./
The sad-sack libbies would just pitch it to a commie judge and get an injunction.
My wife and I went on to San Diego on holiday last year, we had a great time and the people were very friendly. But I was amazed to find out that the place was going bankrupt.
A beautiful tourist attraction and yet they couldn't spend their money wisely. Such a pity!!
Someone's buying those homes or they'd be in the same price range as Nobodywantstolivehere North Dakota.
Next time speak up. Do not walk away. You are absolutely right. I have opened a few minds and mouths in the last 4 years. Im hoping they are to dumb to register and find the local voting centers.
This song is a little old, but very appropriate:
Bob Rivers Twisted Tunes: Californians Leavin'

Click on the first song.
>>I do everything possible to keep 'em from stopping in NM.
I might be stopping there soon. :P
Of course my mom is from there, so I think I have a "get out of California" free card.
BTW how are the motorcycle roads there? When I lived there I didn't have a fun enough car to explore, but I'd guess Rt 14, the road I know as south 14, the high road to Taos, and the Cuba-Jemez Springs-Los Alamos routes must be fun. Must be some others down in the Gila too.
Illegal immigration was outpaced by those fleeing the state? I don't believe it.
The politicians voted themselfs and their buddies better and better benefits while screwing everyone else. Of course, the folks that benefited from the largess are going to be exempt from prosecution.
FReepers always welcome. South 14 is a nice ride, seeing it's my daily commute and I never get tired of it. Up through the Jemez is beautiful. Going up through Taos to Chama is very nice too.
Can you imagine what will happen after either Southern California or the SF Bay area has a REAL earthquake?
My sister and her husband bought a beautiful home in Mill Valley on Mt Tamalpais, in 1973, for $77,000 and it's now worth $2.4 million, as of last year. Un-fricking-believeable.
Do you mean they won't have the money to deal with it?
After graduating college in 1980 and accepting a job with Dow Chemical in sales, I was sent to the San Francisco from Indiana) sales office for training. After one year, you get your own territory, and they ask for three preferences of cities/locations where you would like to work so that they can try to match you with openings.
I had not listed San Francisco, ney even California, as a preference. My Management was shocked. Every trainee who had been trained in the San Fran office wanted to stay there.
I was not like the short-sighted 20 somethings. I had already seen the price of real estate. I had seen other single sales reps who were purchasing homes together because they could not afford to purchase them on a single income, but didn't want to wait util marriage and a second income to invest in a house. Rents were atrocious. What happened when your co-owner was promoted and transferred, which generally happened in the first 3-5 years? You were forced to sell your home or buy them out.
Taxes in 1981 were very high out there. I hated earthquakes. I just didn't see my future there. I know I made the right decision today because I never would have been happy in such a liberal culture.
Actually, they all get more purple, sorry to say :(
Californians: please, please stay out of Texas.
