> I take from your comment that you are less concerned with raw numbers and more concerned with vanity labels and trends

Yes, exactly. I collect vanity labels and make little stickers out of them for my fridge. What a completely useless thing to say. You have no idea what my thoughts are based on one sentence and a half so keep your ad hominems to yourself please.

All you are saying is that California is way too expensive thus people are leaving. Yes, we all know that. Now, why are people unable to live in California? And how should it be fixed? Those are the real questions. And there are reasonable arguments to make for many different theories, which was my point above.

If a solution is actually important I would suggest looking harder at the raw numbers and less hard at being offended. The problem isn’t that California is too expensive. That is a problem at present but the real concern is slowing growth and declining projections, which is a future problem. Colorado, which is seeing high growth, is also very expensive, which suggests costs of living are not solely to blame.
