The flight from California is not good news for the rest of the nation. The refugees bring California with them wherever they go. “Colorado is nice but it needs more land use ordinances.” Idaho is nice but it needs more regulation of(fill in the blank).” That leads to the (excuse me)Californication of the rest of the West.

When I lived in Seattle, I found that the Californicators were more liberal than those that were raised there.

Meaning they will accept more taxation and more regulation up to the point that drove them from California. So where do they once they have ruined Colorado?

the nation of mexico and the movement of what is called reconquista, is now under the belief that all gringos need to recess back to the original thirteen colonies.

Hence why they like the use of the Betsy Ross flag.

They believe your home is theirs. they believe you stole the land and the nation from them. They mean to take the entire U.S. back....

Yep. In the short time I lived in Colorado it got increasingly liberal. Montana is going quick.

“The flight from California is not good news for the rest of the nation. The refugees bring California with them wherever they go.”

We had the same problem here in Alabama a few years ago. We had just had a big influx of jobs from a base closing in St. Louis. The new comers were thrilled to learn they could purchase a much large house and with property tax bills that were thousands lower than where they came from.

Of course, when the new Govenor wanted to raise property taxes, these new comers were some of his biggest supporters. ‘Why, in St. Louis I paid $6000 in property taxes. Here, I’m only paying $900. Why of course we can raise taxes.”
