California: The Golden State in Utter Decay
By P.F. Whalen
California is a mess; no secret there. But the degree of decline that befalls it, and the quickness with which that decline is moving, seems to be largely ignored, particularly by Californians themselves. The nation's most populous state, and arguably its most naturally beautiful, is falling apart virtually everywhere we look. Yet state and local governments not only insist on moving forward with leftist policies, but continually double down by moving even farther left, and the state's voters return them to office with ever-increasing electoral margins. California's current approach to virtually all aspects of society — the economy, environment, legal system and culture — is unsustainable, and the time for reckoning is rapidly approaching.
...Avoiding responsibility for a crisis by blaming anyone and anything with even a remote chance of culpability is the California way — which leads to a failure to develop real solutions.
... California, the bluest of blue states, has rising crime and homelessness. California has fearsome wildfires and rolling electrical blackouts due to government mismanagement of its forests and energy systems. California has an ever-increasing budget deficit with no end in sight. Yet California's tone-deaf politicians continue to enjoy immense support from their oblivious electorate. Many residents cherish the song lyric that laments, "Going to California with an aching in my heart." Unfortunately, the time has come for many to recognize reality, and to leave California with a similar aching. California is decaying before our eyes, and it is not going to get better.
