    You do realize California has a high cost of living, right? It’s not like everyone in CA gets paid a million a year.

      That’s irrelevant.

      Anyone in California can move to cheaper states and get more bang for their buck. They don’t want to because they feel they’re entitled to the Cali lifestyle.

      There is no excuse. Only greed and those who support it.

        Are you 14? I’m honestly asking because most adults would realize there’s a correlation between cost of living and the paycheck you can expect to bring home in any given area. Most adults probably also realize that anyone living in Bakersfield isn’t getting the “Cali lifestyle” that you’re so obviously jealous of.

          Yes, and you actually have a chance at owning property outside of California even if you make less. People in Cali are just passing a bunch of money around at the top. There is no excuse for most of them to be ‘stuck’ there. It’s not ‘impossible’ for them to leave. They just don’t want to because they feel entitled to live in Cali. They think supply and demand doesn’t apply to them, lol.

          You’re clearly just upset I’m calling out greed and excess wealth for what it is. Probably because you don’t want to acknowledge that you, yes you, have the power to change your life.

          Anyways, keep sitting around and waiting for others to solve your problems. I’m sure it will work out, eventually.

        What an odd take. Since you’re not California you’re basically saying hey look at those people over there they’re taking care of their own business. And then you decide to butt in.

        What’s your skin in the game You don’t live in California You don’t work in California You don’t vote in California why do you care?

          What are you talking about? I don’t have to live in California to point out that they are passing a bunch of money around at the top.

          You’re probably saying it’s an odd take because you don’t like to hear criticism of wealth, unless it’s a billionaire.
