You're damn skippy.
Left in 1990. From 1985 to 1990 (approx) I commuted from the Inland Empire to Los Angeles. By the time I left, you could have climbed up on top of the house at home and hopped from rooftop to rooftop and landed in the Pacific Ocean never touching the ground. Too.Damn.Crowded.

Actually the economy thrives in spite of socialism, not because of it. If all the socialism were removed, California would jump to number 3 or 4 on the global economy list.

This is what we've been lacking - an us-versus-them thread.

I loved living in CA and I hope I can again sometime. Just too expensive now.

So, since CA is clearly more, uh "Socialistic" than other states, it's primarily not the laws that cause its success, but the character of its people?

I visited California for the first time 3 years ago, and may be going back in October or November. Beautiful place, but I definitely wouldn't want to live there.

I spend a lot of time in Cali. It definitely has its points but all in all I'd rather just go straight to Mexico. There are the same amount of Mexicans, just as much weed, the prices are lower, the water is warmer, and there aren't nearly so many stick in the ass socal-ians declaring how wonderful they are.
but seriously.

At the very least, they should decriminalize hemp for biofuel.

Radar, do you have to have a doctor's note to go to the marijuana stores?

Yes you do. And the police or the dispensaries will verify that you are under the care of a doctor. They have some strange rules in place too like if you go inside and look at the wares...and you leave. You can't come back for a day. You can't use your cell phone or camera inside. If you take a call, you have to leave and can't come back until the next day, etc.
Right now I could get pulled over by a cop with 8 oz of bud and if I show him my card, he'll let me go with my 8 oz....unless I'm driving under the influence. Then I'll be booked for DUI. They will return my medicine though.
