Texas - This state isn’t just growing — its economy is getting richer per resident

  HaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHahaHaHaHa

Democrats love to talk about about affordability but their states are the most expensive in the country

FOR EXAMPLE

A recent report from the California branch of the American Society of Civil Engineers gave the state a C- on its infrastructure maintenance and development, compared with other states around the country.

California through its general fund is spending twice as much per capita as it did just 10 years ago.

In November, the Transparency Foundation released its Cost of California report on state affordability. While democratic socialists have run on the issue of “affordability” in New York and Seattle, they’ve ignored the damage already done by a left-wing government in the largest state in the union. The report said that to live in California, it costs a household earning $130,000 annually a penalty of $29,713.16 over the national average. The report went on to outline how costs in California exceed those in the rest of the country. Housing costs are 124% higher in California. Then residents must pay for utilities with costs 101% higher than in other states. And if you take a shower or water your plants in California, that cost is 48% higher. Child care is 51% higher, and if you must drive anywhere (like to work), those costs are a lot higher. Gas costs on average $1.38 per gallon more in California, or 50% higher than elsewhere.

To insure your car, it costs 20% more to enjoy listening to the Beach Boys on the way to your job. After crushing their residents with these unaffordable costs — driven by misguided policy choices — the elected officials pile on a 45% higher state and local tax burden.

It's nice that the US is a free country where people can choose to live where they want. MAGA likes to try to make people feel bad about where they live, or maybe they're trying to make themselves feel good about where they live. Either way, I'm happy where I'm at, and I hope everyone else is too!

Happy People who dont suck at life are happy living in California.   People who do suck at life move to Texas where they can suck at life with lower taxes and still be miserable.

Tom doesn't mention that the reason California is expensive is that it's a desirable place to live, incomes are high, and the state's economy is larger than all but six countries.

His Tom-stats about gas prices and such are ludicrous lies, so I won't bother to refute them.

We all get to live wherever we want to. I don't understand why our MAGAs continually whine whine whine about California. They're perfectly free to not live there. Is it jealousy??🤔

 Gas prices by state - another Lewis lie refuted --

I just filled my tank in Oregon at $2.86 a gallon. Your widdle map tells me the price was almost a dollar higher.

You went rummaging around in the rectum of the internet until you found a stupid lie. Tell us. What's the source of the data for that bogus map?

I rather enjoy living in California.  Pretty close to the mountains, the beach, Vegas only 3 hours away.  

Wife was born and raised in Oklahoma and she told me that if she had stayed there, she'd probably be dead.  A telling statement about life in the Midwest. 

Here in California she is thriving, not just surviving.  Loves her family, her house, and her job.

Miller, Tom and anyone else that really loves living in Texas, can just stay there, my family and I are more than happy living in California.    

No wonder I'm happy in Colorado; everyone around me is happy as well, which makes life fun. I wonder what it's like to spend all your life around unhappy people. It might cause you to spend all your time posting on forums.

Edso - do you realize as teachers the CA pensions are underfunded by $232B; the worst in the country?  It won't be fixed anytime soon as the state is facing multi billion deficits for the forseeable future.
