On the other hand, for more than a decade, less than 150,000 of California’s 35+ million people pay half of all of its income tax – a highly imbalanced system.
This isn't that surprising when you consider that they have a lot of very wealthy people in CA.
Take the top 100 richest people in CA and compare them to a state like LA and the combined wealth of CA's top 100 would be astronomically larger than the combined wealth of LA's top 100.
According to wikipedia (they're citing Forbes as a source) in 2017 CA had 111 billionaires. LA had 1.
They just have a lot more wealth at the top.
Wikipedia entry was wrong with their number, here is the Forbes link

Way too hot to be paradise.

Cali will go into default then expect the rest of the nation to bail them out. Screw them. They can go to hell.
It's our job never to let this happen. Agree, screw them.
