the california democrat party is nothing but a bunch of coastal boomers jerking each other off while sending the middle and lower class into hell

Yet it's still shitty and depressive to live there.
Nicholas White
Fuck off faggot. You obviously don't live here when you re-post some shit like that.
You need to die, guy.
Isaac Jenkins
Trickle down has always been a scam for the rich to rob the poor.
You don't live there either, you fucking faggot. Jow Forums has a serious problem with flyover hicks claiming they know what California is like without ever having visited once in their lives.
Carter Torres
Aren't rich people leaving California?
Wyatt Wilson
Lmao its still a shithole
Jacob Brown
yes. and those stats in the op are incorrect as well. or at least misleading. fails to mention unfunded infrastructure and debt vs deficit
Oliver Morgan
That bullet train though....
Jeremiah Ross
Nobody cares about commiefornia. They don't even decide elections.
Evan Jenkins
do you have your shit app so you can avoid stepping in shit on your way to the starbucks for a onions latte?
have the finished the herion needle app yet or nah?
how bout that brown ass tap water y'all got? how bout them homeless shanty towns? feels good looking down on them huh? well at least you don't have any of that awful trickle down economics.
Matthew Kelly
John Nichols forgets that Hollywood Accounting doesn't apply to the broader financial world. California's balance of payments is fucked.
Cameron Scott
California has a good economy but infinity shitskins. I'll take a 90+% white state with a below average economy any fucking day
Juan Wood
three words: unfunded. pension. liabilities.
they're running a surplus on paper for now, give it 10 years.
Nathan Roberts
Deficit is one of those metrics that doesn't really matter but it sounds like it matters so dishonest people like to use it as a gotcha
Noah Perez
Do these people think they can just lie without someone checking their claims?
Charles Cook
California's a big state. You're referring specifically to San Francisco, which neither I nor you have ever visited.

Holy fuck how?! How does it even function?
Carter Watson
oh that's right i forgot san francisco wasn't a part of california
when i mentioned the brown ass tap water i was talking about los angeles. by the way what's it like spending 30 minutes in traffic to drive 2 miles down the road? is that fun?
how about having to sacrifice your firstborn child to buy a firearm? is that fun? or paying $3.30/gal for gas? you like that?
Wyatt Nguyen
You literally just described everywhere.

>how do i google california's debt
its 1.3 trillion
maybe you should spend literally 10 seconds on google before being brainwashed by some retard on the twatters
Caleb Adams
It's based on stock prices, thanks to Trump.
Jacob Turner
reminder they always substitute a good GDP as a replacement for good Quality of Life, as though the two are the same
and from the image we've all seen, Cali has the lowest. booming economy, shit place to live.
Aiden Martinez
You do realize the south, where you almost certainly live is literally third world, right?
Elijah Hughes
Califag here, what are you talking about? My 2.5k/month for a shitty 2 bed 2 bath apartment that has an actual cockroach problem and paper thin walls is a steal. I love getting taxed at 18%. And I know my registration fee is going to good use when I see just how well maintained our roads and transport systems are
Nicholas Martin
debt is just the tip of the iceberg for those people.
Colton Diaz
Why tax the rich when you can give them tax cuts instead? Then when you're budget has deficits you cut social programs for American citizens and take out loans from the rich people you gave the tax cuts to. So now the government is paying rich people interest and your poor conservative ass is paying interest on debt the US owes to China. This is what Trump did with his tax cuts.
Stop voting against your economic interests.

>taxed the rich
Yea ok lol.
David Jenkins
He didn't just tax the rich, he defaulted on billions in state and federal obligations. The federal funds California literally stole for the light rail system that never got built was just the icing on the cake.
Leo Adams
by the way gas is $2.30 here and my rent is $1200/month. i make $73,000/year (not very high for up here) and put about $1,000 in savings in the bank a month.
i own 2 ARs (1 AR-10, 1 AR-15) with 30 round magazines, my tap water is crystal clear, taxes are fairly low, and traffic is bad but manageable.
and i don't have to step over homeless people to get a coffee.
Jonathan Taylor
ok, now Brown is responsible for silicon valley
Isaiah King
if you think first, second, and third world are a ranking you're so beyond clueless about politics you have to read for literally years before you should even consider posting
obviously I know what you mean though, and it's because of the niggers
Thomas Reyes
forgot to mention that my $1200 is for a 2BR 2BA apartment with a small yard. on-street parking though, and the house could use some work (no dishwasher.) believe me though it's a lot better than housing in cali.
Wyatt Myers
They literally have to spray entire streets with bleach on a weekly basis in San Francisco to avoid spreading the diseases you can get from just walking around
There's heroin needles, garbage, and actual human feces strewn about the streets of pretty much every major city in CA
I've seen more than enough to know California is unequivocally the worst state in the US, and arguably the worst stretch of land in the entire continent. Fuck Commiefornia and fuck anyone that defends it
Austin Rogers
I can't "this" you hard enough.
GDP per capita is absolutely meaningless for comparing quality of life.
It doesn't take wealth inequality into account at all, and usually they don't even give the PPP adjusted value.
Same reason why average wage is meaningless. It's skewed upwards by outliers and doesn't take cost of living into account.
The only meaningful way to compare standards of living is median (not average) wealth (not wage) per adult in PPP-adjusted dollars.

Nolan Price
what's most amusing about california is that the faggots who live there are all "socialists" but there are literal homeless gutter people crowded into their neighborhoods and they don't do shit about them. if you ever want to see the pinnacle of hypocrisy go to california and talk to the locals or their politicians about their views on economics/wealth inequality. then drive around any metropolitan area and count out the tents. fuck those hypocrites. wealth inequality is worse there than anywhere else in the nation. and they don't do shit about it BECAUSE THEY CAN'T because homeless people are scum and should be gassed. but they'll act all high and mighty with their retarded worldview for babies and women based on emotion.
Mason Thompson
ahahaha but Rush and Fox News told me California sucks!
David Gomez
Now tell me about their unfunded pensions.
Kevin Nelson
nigger the entire nation laughs at your state when we come through there, it reminds us how good we all have it. i'm being dead serious. california is an utter shithole and the only reason you faggots don't realize it is because you all have your heads so far up your asses you still think you're living in the 1990s when that was actually true.
your state is a joke dude. esp. san fran. take one look at san fran and you will immediately understand how defunct liberalism is as a world view and why communists are retarded.
Angel Williams
>$16B in reserves
California's unfunded liabilities are estimated at $333 billion AT A MINIMUM. They could possibly run up to $1 trillion.
Colton Watson
Literal fucking californian here. The state is dicided between rich and poor with the underclass upholding...
You know what youre not even worth it you piece of shit. Kill yourself before you’re found in the racewar because we’re gonna hang you while we rip out your entrails.
Your children will be rapeslaves and your wife’s limbs will be broken and strewn about the streets in horrific fashion
William Williams
It would be nice if he actually taxed the rich, as in the 1%. But we all know he just taxed the shit out of upper-middle class people and small businesses. Which is why the infection which is California is spreading to other states such as Colorado and Washington. I hope that fucking state falls into the ocean.
Nicholas Stewart
I live in CA and it's utter trash. What's funny is that you get wealthy politicians who think being endlessly sympathetic to the illegals, etc. will turn around and fix things.
It won't.
A terrible state govt. ran on inefficiency to perpetuate inefficiency. From San Diego to Sacramento, it's shit and getting worsened every year.
Hunter Nguyen
lol Jerry buttfucked everybody in california with taxes and made a fuckton of dumb decisions(didn't collected carbonized log pits,painting the streets white,etc.)
Eli Lopez
taxes are yet another way that baby boomers are stealing wealth from future generations.
got my tax return for last year, for all the taxes I paid a third was for old people pensions, another third for old people healthcare.
guess how much went on roads. less than 1%. and on police. less than 1%. we could literally cut taxes by half and still come out ahead, simply by cutting off tax-funded benefits to old people.
Aaron Wright

Meanwhile actual real life shitholes like Kansas have an almost 0% corporate tax, have to beg for fed money because there's not enough public funding to keep schools open for a whole school year and yet still no richfag wants to live there
Justin Powell
I live in the Sierra Nevada region of California, literally the only half decent place in this state because it’s rural and our government forgets we exist most days.

>taxes all the business to lower deficit
>businesses all leave for Texas
real sustainable plan you've got their schlomo
Aiden Jenkins
Not quite accurate
>14.6 billion is discretionary spending and disappears after 2020
>increased spending by 50% overall
>tons of unfunded liabilities in the form of pensions/retirement healthcare (expected to cost up to 200 billion)
>almost pushed smaller cities/school districts to insolvency
>created no other reserve funds except the intial 14.6 billion "rainy day" fund
>revenue stream is now unreliable and more reliant on the rich
>tax law changes now prevent investors from writing off state taxes federally
>lowest bond rating of all the states
The budget plan even predicts 2020 to 2021 to end with a deficit.
Matthew Flores
learn how a ponzi scheme works, dumbfuck. the elderly take more in benefits than they ever contributed in taxes.
Gavin Cooper
Fuck you nigger. We still live here.
Thomas Thomas
He deregulated rental laws and now rent is through the roof in California, then he taxes all the landlords.
Its usury.
Also California still hasn't payed its federal debt and is still the largest aggregator of federal aid because of illegals and protected land reserves that catch on fire because of droughts that are caused by oversiphoning of groundwater which also causes destabilization and worsening the effects of earthquakes causing inevitable landslides and more federal aid siphoning.
Even after the 2008 recession / housing crash, real-estate shifted to rental properties and has never been more successful. Now instead of abusing bank loans they're abusing rental laws to ensue usury.

SF tech worker reporting from a business trip.
If you are smart enough to apply yourself there is endless opportunity, too bad most of the people I know my age tend to be fine settling as a food service worker or fall into the higher education meme.
People are too afriad to push themselves mentally which breeds the endless homeless and wagecucks, I don't even feel bad.
Kevin Powell
You have no clue how any of this works.
Your childish image might work in your 10th grade social studies class, but it’s not going to work here
Robert Phillips
>If you are smart enough to apply yourself there is endless opportunity, too bad most of the people I know my age tend to be fine settling as a food service worker or fall into the higher education meme.
That's a fucking meme in itself. Most companies require a degree, years of XP, or both.
And since they don't cover relocation or anything else, most people aren't going to be able to travel for interviews unless its in the area.
Adrian Collins
What about the hundreds of billions in unfunded pension liabilities?
Samuel Ward
Imagine trusting the numbers the democrats give you. If CA has no debt and has a large surplus, then why does it face a huge pension crisis? sandiegouniontribune.com
Alexander Roberts
False, and thinking that way is just cucking yourself. I'm in my mid 20s, no degree, and have been working since I was 15. I now make 250k a year and have almost 2 million in equity. Once you reach a certain point it does start to snowball which helps though.
Jacob Garcia

Xavier Walker

Geography helps. If you're out in CA, you'll hit a tech recruiter if you throw a pebble. You won't in the Midwest.
I'm working on a business to make up for that, but it's a slog.
Cooper Gray
This brings up an interesting point. Social alienation from too many shitskins is worse than being poor. At least a poorfag in west virginia has white friends he can shoot the shit with, white girls to fuck and white employers to hire him and can see all his nice white neighbors and relatives.
California is poojeets fucking over hipsters while white thots take foreign dick in a place that is massively overpriced for all the bullshit.

San Fransisco is a spiritual beacon of evil radiating across the world. The degenerate culture of modern "progressivism" (progressing toward satanic global superstate AKA "the beast") was cultivated there and have been uploaded into the global consciousness of humanity by way of Silicone Valley and it's consequences.

No, califags have a problem with having never left cali and then projecting that "having never traveled" onto other people. Californians are some of the least traveled population in the country.
Isaiah Lewis
Juan Miller
California has an incredibly low standard of living, an awful educational system and some of the worst wealth disparity on Earth.
This is cherrypicked bullshit. They also didn’t “tax the rich,” they just taxed everybody, have you seen the nominal tax rate in CA?
Gabriel Reyes
>giving away my hard earned money so worthless niggers can continue nigging is totally in my best interests

Lincoln Butler
>California

What sort of nigger actually believes this? CA, if it ever decided for secession, would go broke in the first year because it has so much fucking fiscal waste it NEEDS constant federal subsidies in order to not go belly-up in a single season.
This is literally nigger-tier retard stuff being passed off as fact, only a complete rube would believe this without actually checking facts.
Grayson Lewis
