The Big One could leave 250,000-400,000 quake refugees in California. Where will they go?

Since the fault lines are costal and will eventually split off from the mainland - into the sea and done.

Questions:

1. Rationally, how many of these “victims” will have real work skills?

2. If a quake of that suspected/desired magnitude hits, how many of these “victims” will have the intestinal fortitude to WALK to where ever their purposed destination is? Power out, so no fuel for vehicles.

3. How many “EBT subscribers” would hesitate longer than one day, before the historical actions of such folks in a catastrophe, would put the ruined city to the torch?

4. Would such a quake have any financial consequences to the property and finances on Nancy Pelosi, Barbara Boxer, or Dianne Feinstein?

I'm sure the Democrat Party has several red States
in mind to send them to in order to "influence" an election.

Isn’t California, for all intents and purposes, a part of Mexico now?

Maybe Californians need a new kind of ‘CaliforniaCare’ where you’re forced to buy insurance against the possibility of being left homeless in an earthquake. Anyone living in an area prone to disasters (earthquakes, tornados, tsunamis, etc.) should have a plan to deal with the event when it happens.

Nah.

Mexico would not put up with the silliness that California indulges in.

A nephew, his wife and 2 kiddo’s. They are ALWAYS welcome. He comes from here (NC) and is a military man. They are the ONLY ones from that place that will ever be welcome anywhere near my home. You asked . . .

That Headline almost gave me a heart attack! The very thought of being overrun by californicates is SCARY.

Visions of the water rising and the vermin floating into civilized areas comes to mind. Snakes, ants, and rodents of all kinds.

Obviously this will be caused by Gore-bull warming, climate change, and racism.

Don't forget fracking. LOL

People who think they have crystal balls for reading future catastrophic events should never be given the time of day by any news venue anywhere.

The faults in California run through urban, suburban, semi-rural and rural areas. When a quake hits it does not run all long a fault line, even though it is normally centered along a fault line. So it hits ON a fault line, SOMEWHERE. The San Andreas fault line is 750 miles long. The crystal ball pretenders have no idea at all which fault line or where on that fault line “the big one” will hit.

I just want to remind everyone that there are still Freepers in CA....note the signature name. House is a few hundred yards from the fault!
