But his proposed infrastructure plan is a joke. CA gets a single desalination plant and that's it. I'm sure it is just as lol for the rest of the states.

Everywhere has its problems but again if we didn't have to lose so much tax money to dickhead states like Kansas we'd have more money to fix our infrastructure.

Besides there's probably dams and bridges all over the country on the verge of collapse, it's not just CA. We're all in this ride to 3rd world status together.

it's called CROP ROTATION numb nuts, that poo poo is in like Age of Empires 2 ffs as a bronze age tech or something



quote:

"Once the winds began picking up dust from the open fields, they grew into dust storms of biblical proportions. Each year the storms grew more ferocious and more frequent, sweeping up millions of tons of earth, covering farms and homes across the Plains with sand, and spreading the dust across the country. Children developed often fatal 'dust pneumonia,' business owners unable to cope with the financial ruin committed suicide, and thousands of desperate Americans were torn from their homes and forced on the road in an exodus unlike anything the United States has ever seen."

All states suck but some states keep their suck somewhat contained within their own borders and the South and Great Plains regions are particularly good about spreading the dumbfuck around as much as possible whether it be demanding mythology in science textbooks or sucking down tax money from other states to keep their education systems functional because they slashed their income tax rates to the hilt (while simultaneously raising sales taxes bc gently caress poor people lol).

Who said that California sucks? People are just saying it's not the glorious city on a hill you think it is. California is not that much better than the rest of America.

I think you'll find that nowhere did I say CA was the best state ever and yada yada golden city on a hill.

I simply said: we'd be able to pay for our own infrastructure stuff if we didn't have to subsidize idiot states. A bunch of people apparently took exception to that, I can only assume bc they live in said idiot states.
