Except that it's legal to see hoes in Britain, whereas the average Californian needs to go out to some Nevada desert circa San Bernadino.

When bums are overrunning the neighborhood, it’s hard to care about that.

Prior to FOSTA it was super easy to see ho’s in LA OC and IE. Illegal or legal was irrelevant using Humaniplex. And they were a helluva lot less than what you are paying. If you wanted way cheaper you could dumpster dive in the IE.
It’s more complicated now though. Still possible, but not as easy.

If so much is going on, why in the universe are our tax rates so high?
There is no stopping this incredible State.

How can that be? It's well known that CA is a socialist hellhole occupied by illegals and SJW who spend all their time persecuting white males and collecting welfare. You guys need to get your story straight.

Every time I go up to the BA, I am surprised by all the vacant land I see. But you can't build there, you can't build here, you can't build up, you can't build, you can't build.
Where the fuck can you build?

Big economy - yes.
But also highest poverty rate in the country.
How do you square that? A state that is run top to bottom by Progressives who claim they are all concerned about income inequality.

Highest if you play games with cost of housing. All the NIMBY's keeping housing prices through the roof aren't progressive at all By income it's at 18. .. All of the conservative free market, low tax, small government states make up the top 17 for poverty. Along with being the sickest and least educated. How is that all working out? Make America Mississippi again.

California's economy has surpassed that of the United Kingdom to become the world's fifth largest, according to new federal data made public Friday.
California's gross domestic product rose by $127 billion from 2016 to 2017, surpassing $2.7 trillion, the data said. Meanwhile, the U.K.'s economic output slightly shrank over that time when measured in U.S. dollars, due in part to exchange rate fluctuations.
