AND Cali. didn’t ‘start out’ as the 5th largest economy in the world. In the 1930s it was a vegetable farm with film studios.
Rock and Roll wasn’t born there because in the early 1950s it didn’t have an MLB franchise yet alone a music industry.
In the 1960-1980s America’s tech center was TEXAS. (Houston control?? Texas Instruments?)
A person is free to predict what he wants about the direction California is heading, (spoiled brat liberal deadhead kids squandering daddy’s hard earned money or whatever) but so far, it is a rags-to-riches story that deserves to be told more often.

The boot strap story of the 20th century involves a sandy haired surfer kid and the strap attaches to his board.

Ahh, I misunderstood that we were actually on the same page.
Yeah, I should have shortened my post.
One idea at a time suffices.
Yet for voted for a New Yorker and support an administration that is full of New Yorkers he appointed.
Bet you love America’s Mayor, too.
What are you talking about? Who did I vote for? When did this happen? Did someone renew my registration without informing me? Are you aware of voter fraud occurring?
we thought about if before we moved to austin.
NYC? We could make it the Jewish homeland and solve TWO problems at once.
