California dreaming
I’ve been to California a few times, for scientific meetings, for vacation and once for a friend’s wedding. I’ve had a good experience each time. It has always struck me as an expensive place to live, though, and I’m definitely not a beach person.
Elon Musk is warning us that the nation will become “Californicated” if Harris is elected. Considering that California’s per capita GDP has grown faster than the nation’s per capita GDP since at least 2011, that seems like a good thing. Maybe Elon should research his threats before making them.
Musk lives in Texas. The Union General Philip Sheridan once said of Texas: “If I owned Texas and Hell, I would rent out Texas and live in Hell.” Seems like Texification would be a greater threat.

You took something Musk said at face-value?
@Ten,
LOL! No, of course not. I’m mocking Musk.
I am enjoying watching him spend his daddy’s money faster than Donald Trump
Great point. Life long Southern Californian here. Many parts of this State are thriving. The national media will show you one tent city in LA or SF and say look at California. That is nothing. I live near San Diego, but not by the coast. Plenty of jobs, good amenities, great food, great people, thriving and dynamic economy, good healthcare. Mountains, deserts, beaches etc. in a Mediterranean climate. I don’t understand any of the hate, but oh well, I just shrug my shoulders and live in a great place with diversity, rule of law and a vibrant thriving economy.
