Gotcha.
Personal choice, not really debatable. I'd rather not spend any of my money there.

Sometimes I paint in primary colors in order to keep it simple enough to at least evoke recognition of shades of gray from those who can perhaps only typically see black and white

I've been through some of California and while it is nice I'm just not real driven to go back. If it is any consolation I wish tourists would stop coming to Florida.

OK, so since your "California is so special they deserve our help" justification for the federal government to send them money was simply painting in primary colors, do you have any shades of gray that justify it?

And what you're not getting (not that that might be something unique) is that all those industries that make money, and provide services in times of good, are also hit hardest in times of bad.

Face it. The "USA" IS NYC [and surrounding areas] and California.

Where YOU live is what's fucking completely irrelevant.

Don't get your panties in a bunch. That's just the lay of the land, son.

It's called "fly-over" territory.
Please tell me one thing (other than agriculture) that CA has that the rest of the country could not produce? You want a port...use Tacoma, WA. Everything else can leave and be done elsewhere, which is what is happening because taxes are too high. Alot of industry is here for one simple reason; the weather.

The best thing this state could do is elect a conservative legislation who:
1. Is actually conservative.
2. Cares about the air and water, but do not pass dumb ass worthless air control laws which only helps interest groups.
3. Who can quit paying for every Mexican's lifestyle just because they can and do spit out 5 kids.

Sometimes I wonder if you even believe half the bullshit you throw out there.
