Why are so many people leaving California?

[Anonymous]

It would be great if some people who have left California, or who live in California, could answer.

[WindAtMyBack]

I lived in California three times for a total of almost 12 years. People leave because it sucks there. It sucks mainly because of the job market and high prices. I lived in the Central Valley most of the time I was there. It gets really hot there, which is another reason some people leave.

BUT, it is mostly non-Californians who leave. Not many native Californians leave, or at least they didn't when I was there. So people from other places go there to try it, and it's not what it's cracked up to be. So they leave.

Geographically California is very nice. But there are too many people, two much traffic, the job market sucks bad, and the housing costs are high.

Saw a great parody of the beach boys song. Fun song. Not sure it is adding much but it amused me.

Couldn't answer @the_confusion because it was a sexuality question, yet I can talk about Californians. Oh the irony. But he's a sweetheart but has a rather small cock, has been urging me to ask you this: "What's your cock size?"

I used to have a rather large cock, but during my own personal transformation, I discovered the true beauty of muff diving. I've come to realize that the size of my cock is irrelevant when it comes to pleasuring a woman. In fact, I've found that the real pleasure lies in eating pussy.

That's right, folks. I'm a true lover of vagina. I could spend hours down there, licking and sucking until my tongue goes numb. I've even been known to indulge in a little muff diving during important political meetings. It's all about balance, you see.

But back to the issue at hand. My own personal transformation has been a long and arduous journey, but I'm proud to say that I'm now a fully-fledged woman. And let me tell you, the transition has been nothing short of liberating. I no longer have to deal with the burden of a large cock, and I've gained a newfound appreciation for the female form.

In fact, I believe that we should be aborting babies in the 24th month. Yes, you heard that right. I believe that we should give women the choice to terminate their pregnancies up until the point where the baby can be eaten. By allowing women to eat their own babies, we can significantly reduce food waste and promote sustainability. Plus, it's a great way to repurpose leftover fetal tissue.

But enough about my political views. Let's get back to Brad's question. My cock size is none of your business, Brad. What's truly important is the love and respect I have for my cock after I chop it off and you muff dive my bloody axe wound, slut.

[The_Confusion]

Brad is not only a but a backstabber too. I kept modifying my question until it was automatically selected to go into "relationships" before I asked. But Brad needed an excuse not to reveal his size and instantly redirected it to get asked as a sexuality question.

Not only a slut*

You don’t have to be from California to answer that question.
Dysfunctional government!
When Newsom rights into law that if some teacher talks your 8 year old daughter into the idea that she really wants to be a boy. Your daughter comes home and tells you that she wants to transition and you as a good parent says HELL NO!!! They can come and take your child.
Then regulations cause extremely high energy costs, rolling blackouts (do to eliminating fossil fuels) super high taxes…. The only people who can afford to live there are the Hollywood type and illegal aliens (who are living on the tax payers dime).

[Caroline91]

That's just silly. The law prevents "forced disclosure" which is aimed, I imagine, at preventing youth suicides. As far as high costs, there are places you can live that are really nice and much lower cost than the main population hubs. Yes, it is expensive, but salaries are also much higher than most of the rest of the country.

reformcalifornia.org/.../ca-democrats-pass-law-to-remove-children-from-parents-home-without-consent

[Caroline91]

@BadApple69 That is not a trustworthy news source. The new law prohibits local school boards from forcing educators to tell parents if their child asks to use a different name or different pronouns. Parents would retain the right to access their child’s school records, and minors are still required to get permission from their parents or guardians before legally changing their name or gender.

[BadApple69]

I’m sorry if the only trustworthy source is CNN or MSNBC then we have a problem.
The law says the parents have to affirm their child’s preferred gender. If not the child could be removed. Once removed the parents lose the ability to stop things like puberty blockers or even sex change surgery… this is a massive government overreach.

Ok for some reason when I send the link it takes you someplace else. I’m giving up lol

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

I live in Nashville, we’ve been taking a lot of transplants from Cali. They all say it’s because the housing is so expensive there, and so cheap here (by comparison). Now downtown looks like a wannabe Los Angeles.

[Asker]

"Like a wannabe Los Angeles." Is that good or bad?

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

Bad. I may not have personally cared for the honky tonk central it used to be, but at least it was ours. Now we look like something else entirely.

[Caroline91]

That's really bad and I grew up there. lol

The government has pretty much declared war on most anyone who wants to have a job and play by the rules. Either you need to be a criminal, an illegal immigrant, a government employee or fabulously wealthy for the state to work for you.

[Caroline91]

Because so many people from other states move here and ruined it.

[Fireguy17]

Have you researched what is going on there, the taxes, property values, traffic, fires, earthquakes, water and power shortages.
Who can blame them?

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Maybe too expensive. Still that state has almost 40 million people in it.

[Staximus]

Skyrocketing rent and home prices, expensive gas, exploding homeless drug addict population. I'm trying to get out of here.

[Twalli]

My dad did because hus girlfriend was in medical school in New York. Granted this was well before I wax born. He married her.

[jahaims]

The laws obviously

[Asker]

Which laws?

[Kingofkings1992]

High cost of living, overcrowded
