Wait a minute, this is the same state that has huge taxes, and is a mecca of "enlightened living", a model of "eco sensitivity" and "kindness to all" yet it has the highest number of homeless? Wow, I thought they had all migrated north to the Peoples Republic of Portland. Proof of the fact, government intrusion does not bring anything but more government, and then collapse...
"The state is building at least 100,000 fewer units a year than it needs to to keep pace with population growth, according to a Brown-administration report released last week , and the lowest-income residents are the most squeezed. One-third of the California renters spend more than half their income on housing, and the state’s homeless population is dramatically higher than the rest of the country."
