- casefields 6y agoBecause this is a one-party state, and in this climate no one is going to blame themselves. Way easier to a boogeyman of a private company to rail against. It's the Ticketmaster of politics.

There are more registered Republicans in CA than any other state and they get representation in the state legislator, just like there are a bunch of noteworthy Republicans from California in the US House. Republicans are regularly elected to Governor as well as other statewide offices. I believe there has been a recent large Democratic majority in the last few years, but these issues are decades in the making.

Because the company keeps not following the regulations and committing fraud to cover it up (and sometimes, after that, committing obstruction of justice to cover that up.) I mean, just based on their 91 state and federal felony convictions in the last several years.
