Lol, anything that doesn’t say “housing crisis” as the first bullet point clearly was written by someone who does not live in California.
«Texas gained an astounding 471,000 people last year and Florida gained 417,000, while California lost 114,000. […] Those Census net-domestic-migration numbers show that 343,000 Californians left for other states.»
Reasons stated in the article:
- Endless regulations
- Punitive tax rates
- Untouchable public-sector unions that are ransacking budgets and opposing reforms
- Shoddy school systems
- Decrepit (but pricey) public services
- Traffic congestion
- Absurd housing prices
- Growing crime rates
- Failing efforts to provide basic infrastructure
- Sprawling homelessness crisis
- Lack of political competition
- Problems are met by raising taxes and creating new agencies
- Old agencies are not held accountable
- Environmental policies
