Yeah the people who think this is a bad thing are pretty confused. The real story here is that everybody in California is becoming very highly educated [1]. California is experiencing a remarkable brain gain as the best and the brighest in the world relocate to the state. This may drive out lesser educated Americans but the idea that this is a disaster or a bad thing is mistaken. California's future is very bright (even if too much value gets captured by real estate speculators.)

- adamrezich 9y agoA bad thing for whom? California or its (former) citizens?
- kenhwang 9y agoEither? Former citizens presumably get an increase in quality of life in a lower cost of living area, and California has a richer (newly imported) middle class. The ones that have it hard are the ones who can't afford to stay and can't/won't leave.
