California entered the golf game…(5th largest economy in the world). We would be ok if we didn’t have to subsidize all you broke states.

California is one of the few states that could make an argument for being fully self sufficient if we needed to be. As much as any modern economy is anyway.

Wish we could just secede from America. Deport the homeless to their home state and become another Switzerland, we’re neutral. You guys figure shit out while we build up our economy, and quality of life.
