Texas and Florida are probably cooked though.
No great loss.
CA will remain one of the world's great innovation hubs. I thought the Wired story might be just a puff piece but was pleasantly surprised at how it gets into details of the state rolling up its sleeves and starting trends that others will follow. I have hopes even for your water supply woes - solar desalination plants, anyone? And xeriscaping is already taking off. Keep on keepin on, Cali.
I've just started a journey in 'Rural California'...youtube video with Peter Santenello "The California Nobody Knows".
The problem that we have had in California in part is that we are bringing in foreign communities which do not embrace philosophies such as helping the poor and the homeless and the foster children and the abused women, etc. They just build a prison and then hire cops to patrol, and they do not give a shit about the homeless. In Hollywood it was against the law to feed the homeless when I was poor and homeless on the street there. I was clean and sober with a college degree begging for an honest job, and Hollywood needs cheap hostels for $15 per night like in Rome, Italy. Hollywood has 1 Million Persians from Iran and they do not give a shit about helping a homeless Christian.
But, now the Knights of Columbus are selling Home Insurance, with the money going to Catholic Charities, etc, so that will help the poor.
Mayor Bass is helping the homeless now, which is good.
And we need more Mental Health Associations like the one in Santa Ana, and more Wellness Centers like the one in Orange.
We also need to give a free college education to all of the Foster Youth.
Christians are supposed to help the poor and the homeless, and now a lot of people are not Christians and they do not believe in helping other people, they are selfish and greedy and they think that the American Dream is just about money and greed, they are fucked in the head like Donald Trump.
It is good that the Knights of Columbus are taking over the Housing Insurance Industry, and the money can go to charity.
Salute,
Tony V.
