The Coastal Cities of California wish to split off from the rest of California to become the 51st state. Your thoughts?

Residents of the Coastal cities say that their state is being badly financially mismanaged. California is now the poorest state in the Union. It has been likened to a crazy old Uncle who wants to buy you dinner all the time but he owes a hundred grand to every loan shark. New California, comprised of the west coast cities, would then become the 51st state.

@ladycae Was an article from a financial newspaper, quoting government statics about the current state of the financial affairs in California, and a couple comments. Apparently not in line with what was intended for us to read. California is hurting bad.

@sunsporter1649 Meaning it didn't agree with the premise of the post ?

@bijouxbroussard The article refuted someone's post about how well California was doing, citing government statics.

@sunsporter1649 Then why would the OP delete a post that supported her position ?

@ladycae I don't like people who can't have a discussion without accusations....especially when the accusations are mean in nature...and false.

@ladycae Oh. Also, I don't like name calling.
