WA has no income tax and their schools aren’t worse. Oregon has no sales tax and their schools aren’t worse. Are CA public schools by far the best in the nation? ( they are not) Edit: before you jump into the “other means funding” - I lived

CA already has net out migration. Which, IMHO, is a good thing until it is too large.

- you’ve just described one of the fundamental US strengths. And it is not just CA - other states try different policies all the time. And the most successful ones are adapted by others. What we should do better as a country is propagating

what are the alternative? Escalate military tensions with them? Slap sanctions on whole populations (who actually don’t have a say in this since they live under dictatorship)? Start a war?

it is certainly the right move to charge individuals rather then directly escalating military tensions with China. Make life miserable for those directly involved and responsible. Next time, others will push back against an order to attack

Yesterday, I searched for a children song from an old soviet movie (my childhood) to play to my kids. Nothing political whatsoever. Youtube promptly showed me the warning for that channel saying that “VGTRK is funded by the Russian governme

A lot of middle class families with kids move out. Bad public schools despite huge taxes is not great for those raising their kids.

I’d say my point still applies, perhaps with a smaller degree. If rents drop 3x (an economic disaster pretty much) are tent encampment inhabitants rushing to rent, coming up with deposits and getting pre-approved?

Are they really? An honest question - suppose the housing does a nosedive to 100K. I still find it hard to believe that those living on the streets in tents with no jobs will rush to buy houses. The other category of “invisible” homeless -

LOL, I actually grew up near Chernobyl and my parents STILL work on CHNPP. So I do know a thing or two about the tragedy. One thing for sure is that it is very speculative to assume pretty much any death toll rather then immediate deaths b

he placed the gates and guards. The state has fined him for doing so and ordered to restore access. But since he is rich and the fine is small - he did not comply and was just paying the fine and keeps fighting in courts

Based on CA’s constitution beaches (low to high tides) are public property. If you land lock a beach, in practice (like in the example above) there is an access route used by public which you are NOT entitled to close.
