I wish for elected politicians to do what we elected them to do, which does not at all involve bribery or globalist conspiracies. I'll grant that California is in some ways a negative model. For example, I hate that the NIMBY capture that has been a factor in driving prices up in California has started to show up in Texas. Oh yeah, that's another bad assumption you made. I live in Texas, a place people often move to from California in part because it's growing rapidly, since NIMBYs haven't yet captured the legal system here. Of course, it's fun to see people who moved here within the last couple of years speak up at city council meetings against new development, because they're trying to "California my Texas" by bringing their NIMBY nonsense with them. They struggle to explain why the house that was built for them within the last three years is good, while the new houses are bad, of course.
