Wow, I thought the cult of Obama was bad and the derangement syndrome with him......but it's just as bad with Trump. Can't even have a decent exchange about why California sucks , etc. without bringing him into it and the whole conversation going into HIM

It's because politics is the reason some people are critical of California.

I personally think it's the most beautiful state in the country but it wouldn't be where I'd choose to live if I could. The COL in the nicer areas is too high. Salaries are higher but not enough to offset the COL difference for me.

I'd have to rich to consider living there.

And I'd have to get rid of half of my gun collection

Enjoy. It's not my schtick it's just a fact. I would prefer the state splits so I can justify paying this much tax and getting white painted streets for it

Yep, but I can't figure out how the Bay Area is NorCal. It's basically central coast

If you go by the AVAs, it is Central coast.

It's not a fact. "NorCal sucks" is firmly in the realm of opinion.

Just curious, when you say Northern California sucks, are you referring to all of it or a particular area?

IDK. Born and raised in the bay and it's just always been like that. I personally consider the bay to be its own region but no one cares what I think.

I don't have a problem with the California politics end, but it keeps coming back to Trump b.s.

I voted for the guy,but I'm tired of politics essentially being about him.

I hear you, although when you get to places like Chico, it's pretty afordable as is Fresno (kind of a shithole but not quite) Still more expensive than anything comparable in LA or MS or TX

However in both those places your guns would be welcome

It is a fact and SoCal has been turning into one as well. Especially downtown.

I'm not talking about Coastal scenery and the mountains. I've already stated that many times

Take a gander at the new bill introed today by the Los Angeles politician Ricardo Lara

So when you say NorCal sucks you're actually talking about SF. That's what I figured.

it really is killing me. Can't scroll through social media, news websites, pop cultural websites, or even reddit without being bombarded by some form political post with an obvious slant in either direction.

They have some fairly restrictive firearm laws by US standards. Many recently passed. I own a few that would be illegal in CA. Maybe more than a few.

I kind of said that in jest though. That probably wouldn't sway me one way or the other but I'd prefer to live in a pro gun state if I had the choice.

The COL and high taxes would be what would keep me away. There are plenty of beautiful states that are cheaper to live in.
