Oh and about the homo thing. Evangelicals in California have evolved a little since 2008. Homosexuals and transgenders are welcome at any of those churches, and nobody will disrespect you, although most still consider the lifestyle a sin, although we are all sinners so what’s the difference? That’s the general feeling nowadays. They still don’t like in-your-face homosexuality preferring that sex of any sort remain something private. And they definitely don’t appreciate attempts to “educate” children about the homosexual lifestyle or glorify it in any way. To us, it’s an unfortunate condition, and not something to wish on our children.

Nobody wants leave California. Some people have to leave because they are too lazy or not smart enough to make it here. California is a entrepreneurial hotspot with TONS of startups and lots of smart people making lots of money.

You're out of your mind and blind man. I have several multi-millionaire families who've already evacuated. I'm earlier in my career but a millionaire so far who will do the same. I've seen the changes since the 70s and things are going down hill faster and faster every year over the entire fucking state.

Furthermore, the platform tech is now built on was started under conservatives. I had a lot of family wrapped up in that back in the day in SV before my time. I'm sure there were man bites dog cases but it wasn't the hippies that built that.

This will not end well.

This scientist/native Bay Arean would expect no less of a smug narcissistic response from Cool Aid drinking Hipster. Or ®ealtor.

®ealtor? Okay, makes sense now. haha

Trump LOST the popular vote by a substantial margin

Useless data point since the game wasn't played by "popular vote" rules.

For the record they came from Iowa farming and military stock. Large Irish family in Norcal with kids who did the jobs leftists say American's can't or won't do: Picking strawberries, plumbs, peaches and working in the peach cannery near Sacramento in their late teens. Alongside what in the 60s were legal migrant workers. Migrant workers who even then spent most of the year on the state dole because only certain times of the year is harvesting/canning required.

Gave them a good work ethic and thus they excelled in education and tech (life in general) in the 70s-90s.

I checked the surf this morning. Choppy with rips. Nobody was out there.

It's not useless if your point is that Trump does NOT have the support of mainstream everyday Americans.

There is no data proving it. The measures taken from elections based on EC are useless for this particular purpose for variety of pretty obvios reasons. If Tarantula was truly a scientist I woldn't have to explain basic stuff like that to him/her/xer.

Conservatives are NOT Trump supporters. Trump does NOT espouse conservative ideals, and please don't associate the current right-wing with a true Cornholio Troll such as myself.

You're gonna die like all of the other dumb ass lane splitters.

Sorry, here's the correction.

25% of eligible voters voted for Trump , which means 75% DIDN'T vote for Hillary.

Plus, Trump is around a 50% approval rating, which is DOUBLE the percentage that voted for him, so yeah, I'd say he has the support of everyday Americans. Stop getting your news from Rachel Maddow and Anderson Cooper.

100% agreed. CA is falling apart esp. in the metropoles. Might take longer for sheltered more rural areas such a wine country etc. But SF is going downhill fast.

"Evacuated" Heh, Heh!

Does California come with ejection seats?

It’s you liberals who built a nanny state here. Constantly out of money, housing, water. But no shortage of poverty and fags.

Little people had to protect themselves from scary people who might pray for them.

Both buyers and sellers are feeling less optimistic about the housing market than they were a year before, according to Fannie Mae’s national housing survey.

The mortgage finance company, which compiles an index measuring homebuying sentiment, reported that the February index was down 1.5 points from the year earlier.

The index is based on a survey of home buying and selling sentiments and income changes, as well as beliefs about the future for home prices and mortgage rates. It found that the net share of Americans who say it is a good time to buy a home dropped by nearly a third over the past year to 15 percent from 21 percent. The net share who said it is a good time to sell also fell, to 30 percent from 36 percent. Most Americans believe mortgage rates will go up over the next year, while fewer believe that home prices will continue to rise than they did before.

Doug Duncan, Fannie Mae's chief economist, called the drop in home price growth expectations "notable," with the net share of consumers expecting home prices to rise falling 19 points from the survey high hit at the start of 2018.

"While declining home price expectations may point to improving affordability, the share of consumers who think it's a bad time to buy has grown over the last year, and high home prices remain the most frequently cited concern," Duncan said in a press release. "It is plausible that consumers believe that price gains could decelerate further, making it worthwhile to wait rather than act now."

New Houston area home prices edge downward, according to Census data.

The price of a newly constructed home fell in December from the year before, according to preliminary Census data.

The average sales price fell 6 percent, to $377,000 from $402,900.

The downward movement was driven by a shift in the number of units sold for less than $300,000.

That shift was particularly marked in the sub-$150,000 range.

Of new homes sold in December, 6 percent were priced below $150,000, three times the share of the year before.

Just because corporations don't line people up on on St Valentines day and shoot them in the back with Tommy Guns, doesn't mean there isn't any more organized crime.

There is a Civil War and it was waged by the Socialists a long time ago. There are two lanes of Justice, if you don't believe that, then you must also believe that the Antifa are doing Community service work. And Christian kids waiting for their bus at the designated pick up zone, are racist bigots and must be assaulted by Every Adult in the MSM.

You should be thankful that it's not the Bang Bang Shoot Em Up kind. You basement dwellers would get the shitty end of the stick on that one.

You're the one fantasizing that the South will Rise again.
Everyone else on the planet with a stable genius brain, knows that statue is a part of a History and a reminder of what not to do.
Liberals renaming streets, tearing down Civil War era Statues so feverishly they've even tore down statues that had nothing to do with the Civil war History.

Who's the Assholes that keeps dragging the KKK Yeti suit out of the Closet and showing up at pro Trump functions with Police escorts?

LOL This story goes completely dead at 02/02/2017.

Except for you bringing it up. He probably had them sign NDA's and were barred from crying to Huffington post any further, while Trumps Killer Lawyers are apealing it.

Trump will be exonerated on every lawsuit against him when he Trump gets rid of the Commie and Fags Obama put on the benches everywhere.

You have a point. CA should be renamed, the State of Mexico.

Can American Consumers Survive Another Economic Downturn? - Customers worry about economy but are saving less in an on-demand world.

PurePoint Financial’s second “State of Savings in America” survey points to financial trends impacting American consumers in 2019. Among key findings, one-fourth of American consumers are choosing convenience over savings with on-demand applications expected to increase this trend.

Freedom from the stress of money is top of mind for American consumers when dreaming about their future (59%), but many don’t have ongoing savings habits that will prepare them for long-term financial success or protect against a potential financial crisis in the future, according to new research from PurePoint Financial, a hybrid digital bank and division of MUFG Union Bank, N.A.

According to the “State of Savings in America” survey, savings balances are down 35% and 88% of Americans are concerned about another economic downturn, and for good reason; 83% of those impacted by the Great Recession are still recovering.

Economists around the world are predicting another market slump, but the research found that 80% of Americans are not very confident they could survive another recession or market downturn in the near future. The reason: six in 10 of those who are not confident are still living paycheck to paycheck.

While nearly half (44%) of respondents impacted by the Great Recession have cited keeping a closer eye on their finances since the recession, one in seven have admitted they haven’t changed their savings behaviors since being impacted.

Confidence Up, Habits Down

Respondents report feeling less anxious about the job market, political environment and other external factors than in 2017. However, consumers are saving less, have worse savings habits and nearly half don’t feel proud of how much they’ve saved. In fact, fewer Americans are disciplined, habitual savers. Forty-one percent of respondents are saving via direct deposit, down 6% points from 2017. Even more so, crash diet saving is a popular tactic, with half of Millennials categorizing themselves as aggressive short-term savers.

Surprisingly, more consumers are taking savings into their own hands, with 16% of respondents reporting hiding cash around their homes, compared to 12% in 2017. Some 73% of respondents are not actively looking for the best rates or places to save the money they are putting aside, possibly leaving money on the table. As a result, respondents reported a decline in median savings balances, down to $1,500 in 2018 compared to $2,300 in 2017.

According to the Federal Reserve, there is more than $9 trillion sitting in accounts earning less than .09 basis points. PurePoint experts recommend saving at least 10% of your annual income in a high-yield savings account with at least 2% interest rate.

“Our survey found that one in three people in the U.S. don’t feel in control of their finances and half are too embarrassed to talk about their savings with their friends,” continued Habis. “We understand how important financial security is to all of us and that saving may seem daunting, but it just takes minor adjustments, such as creating financial goals, setting aside whatever you can manage from each paycheck or searching for a better interest rate for your savings account.”

Creating Habits in Fitness and Finances

When ranking the top three most important factors in their future, respondents reported having good health (76%), financial savings (73%) and a relationship/family (68%) as the top three responses. That said, respondents noted that saving is their most rewarding activity, even more than losing weight (79% vs. 47%). But there’s more work to be done with crash-diet savers; two in five respondents consider themselves as aggressive short-term savers, for things like weddings and trips, but they’re not consistently saving in between.

Consumers Are Living for Today

Despite concern about their future financial health, at least one quarter of consumers admit to prioritizing convenience over saving. The quick rise of on-demand applications indicates this number will quickly increase over time. The research found that two in five respondents would spend four times as much on transportation to save 20 minutes and one in three would choose to take $1,000 now rather than waiting a year for $3,000; this number was significantly higher with Millennials at 43%.

The 2018 PurePoint State of Savings in America survey is an online survey among 6,000 adults in the U.S. (aged 18+), commissioned by PurePoint Financial and conducted by independent research firm Edelman Intelligence. The survey examined current behaviors, drivers, and barriers to saving among adults in the U.S. Data was collected Dec. 15, 2018 – Jan. 2, 2019, with a margin of error of +/- 1.27%. 2018 was the second wave of the survey, building off of the benchmark wave that was conducted in July/August 2017.

When you're a left wing professor who thinks the Swedish Feminists aren't Woke and Socialist Enough, dailykos looks conservative.

Ocasio-Cortez, 29, berated the New Deal, Franklin Roosevelt's massive public works program worshiped by Democrats, as 'an exercise in racism,' arguing it made life and home loans easier for whites but left African Americans and Latinos behind.

...

She defended herself as a self-defined socialist, slamming the 'fear mongering' of socialism, calling it a fear that 'governments going to take over the private sector.'

Dems need to up their gaslighting game, now that Bernie, and Open Socialist, is in the lead candidate for the Dem Presidential Choice and all of their favorite incoming Congresswomen are Turd World Socialists.

Occasional Cortex thinks FDR didn't go far enough and was a Racist, openly espouses Socialism, but Socialist Pushes only exist in the minds of Redneck Republicans.

They tore down a statue of the guy who wrote "Oh Susana" because it featured a old black man playing a banjo at his feet.

I don't know why white males talk about it though, maybe they are just hypersensitive, whereas the activists that pulled it down were calm and unemotional and only spent years bitching about it.

This thread is a lot better than the other one. Accuracy way up.
