California bad. Me state good. *grunts*

Yes you're right.

But here are some humble facts about our inferior state:

We are the 5th largest economy in the world, and that's comparing it to other countries . We run on such a high surplus, we provide food assistance to anyone, no proof required. Other states have rejected the affordable care act but with Covered California, the state will either subsidize your insurance, or give free insurance if you are at poverty level.

There are states that send their "illegals" here in busses thinking they're getting the better of us because we are a sanctuary state. We feed and house these poor immigrants and are grateful to have them. Most are families looking for refuge, escaping horrible, violent conditions in their own countries. We provide them with legal representation and help them apply for asylum. In turn they become good, tax-paying citizens. We at glad to have them, because other states won't take care of them like we do. People are not illegal. This earth belongs to us all. They are merely undocumented .

So much more. I'd encourage you to listen to this interview, conducted by FOX NEWS to further hear how bad it is. Here's my well-despised and incompetent governor, Gavin Newsom.

It must be nice to have a governor who doesn't hate minorities. Texas may be the world capital of energy but they can't seem to keep the lights on. The utility companies aren't getting enough handouts from the state government.

This country couldn't run without immigrants doing the work Americans refuse.

@Crazywaterspring

Does he hate immigrants or illegals ?
Most people don't hate immigrants but want them to use the door and enter properly and NOT illegally!
@pdockal As we do in California. We choose to help them apply for asylum, through legal methods, because they are undocumented and not illegal. Yes, in California we do protect our borders and we do send back individuals who can't be accommodated, due to federal law, despite how the media portrays us.
@pdockal if you had family who was threatened by cartel or other crime organizations and didn't have access to apply for asylum through legal means, what would you do? Your family is in danger of death, just because they were born in a country that is hostile to their citizens. What would you do? I'm not a Christian, but a Buddhist. I believe Jesus was Buddha, too. WWJD?

@TheFlippantSide You're exactly right. They're not coming here to live out their lives in subsidized housing and eating free groceries.

Few conservatives have the ability to think things through.

@TheFlippantSide

I can barely take care of myself because the government takes toooo much of my money (taxes & fees) and spends it on non citizens amongst other foolish things

Jeasus helps those who help themselves
@Crazywaterspring They just need to recognize their bodhisattva heart. It's there...just like the Grinch lol.
@pdockal Peace to you. Be well and take care. I will never be hostile to you but I won't engage in your type of hostility. You are still my brother.

How is this hostile ?
@pdockal No more. Win in your own heart if you need to. 💜
