This is what happens to a beautiful state when you have a Democratic Governor. They ruin it for everyone. One of the main reasons, like him or not, that we have to vote for Trump.

@omar Rent is super expensive in California. I live in Texas but have family in Cali. I can buy a spacious 3 bedroom, 2 bath home for the same price as a small apartment in San Diego. Idk how much more it is in San Francisco! 😬

omar Dont confuse the matter. California isn’t an economic powerhouse because it’s run by liberals. It’s an economic powerhouse because it has easy trade by sea, from the border, has amazing agriculture in the center, and its cheap land and low taxes from back in the day made it an economic power house. California is great DESPITE the government, not because of it.

omar Of course it makes sense. The government is not the society. The government is not the economy. Individual Californians are doing a great job of doing their work and living put everyday lives. Our government is leeching off our hard work and people who don’t know any better let them take credit for our work. California’s government is Michael Scott. Our branch is doing great because we have great people, not because we have a great manager.

What insanity looks like 👀

just like putin getting 110% of the vote "its the will of the people"

It’s because they just can’t comprehend how voting for positive-sounding things like ‘Equality, Unity, Desegregation, & Inclusiveness’ could possibly result in the mass-degradation of their city.. so they continue to blame it on something else.. & Mainly republicans, 🙄 because they also absolutely REFUSE to accept the fact that anything good could ever result from ‘racist, xenophobic, bigoted, capitalism.’ Even tho (despite whatever you call it) THOSE are the exact same principles that keep the slums out of sight & the streets safe. They won’t hear of it.. but also aren’t willing to actually live-out the ‘unification’ they voted for when an illegal drug-addict starts 💩ing outside their window. 🤣 Then they WANT segregation, but wouldn’t dare say that.. so they just move quietly and promote their ‘progressive’ ideology elsewhere.. (& because shaming other people who feel the same way they do ..makes them feel a little better about themselves.)😂 Either that, or they’re genuinely ignorant enough to believe that none of those homeless people are a lost cause by choice.. and that they all could have a chance ..if only they weren’t so ‘oppressed’ by republican ‘fear-mongering.’ ..so one again, they move & vote blue. 💥🙄🔫

I first noticed a change in Los Angeles in late 2014. I saw how people become increasing bitter and cynical. By 2016, I left for a year and went to Orlando and did some traveling overseas. In 2018, I was back full time. I went through a grieving process and when Covid happened, I left. I knew LA was only going to get worse. I put everything in storage. I came back and moved my storage to AZ. When I come to LA now, I see how people are clinging to the bragging rights to say they live in LA. The angry hostile people, the fires, the cost of living and steady decline of the beautiful place I always loved is too much for me. I have been spending a lot of time in Las Vegas and I am considering making this my permanent home as well.

We're a big nation. Whenever the question posed on reddit of "what's the biggest surprise of people from EU visiting US" is. Its always "how big it it" They want to visit the Walk of Fame and hop in the rental car to see the Statue of Liberty in the same day...Yeah, not gonna happen.

We had a similar problem here in Utah when I was a kid. I remember my parents getting frustrated when they were house-hunting. I don't think we're as big a destination for this latest wave of CA "refugees" though. 😌

And the former Californians want to put their old policies and programs in place where the new place is. Repeating the same outcome again...but in another place.

I've noticed that too, that prices have gone up in New Mexico.

We very much so have the same problem here in utah. Our housing prices are outrageous compared to what they were a few years ago because of a massive influx of people from California

This is happening in Idaho right now, too. Locals don't have a chance to match Californians who are paying thousands OVER the asking price with cash. Most houses I come across now are all about $500k when just a couple years ago they would have been $300k at most. Rent is now at California prices, too. I'm seriously thinking of moving to Canada.

That's why you should vote for limited government. That's what the Republicans want.

Actually, the problem is that people who are really rich don't pay enough taxes, Trump paid basically nothing for years. Notice the difference in taxing income (how most people get by) and wealth (this is where rich people get their money from). Yes, the Income tax is too high, but it is how most people make their money, wealth tax is either very low or non existent, because the rich are powerful enough to block any such tax. Of course brain donating Republicans and their voters aren't helping in improving the situation for the majority of the people.

well, you benefit 100% from the infrastructure so I would say you are being well treated.

Max Meier lol I’ve worked in different levels of government for the past decade and see exactly how tax payer money is used a lot of it funds waste and beauracracy that does nothing but slow things down

That’s what happens with socialist programs, they drive taxes up and prevent you from being able to switch from public to private (better) systems. As a Brit, I feel your pain

Those are state tax rates. Don't you guys up in Canada have provincial tax rates? In California, those tax rates fund a poorly mandated state wide road and freeway system, which is clogged and congested, social services like Medicaid which are about 50/50 split between the state of California and the U.S. Federal government, a rapidly spiraling out of control homelessness and destitution epidemic with the state failing to adequately provide for them, and instead writing ridiculous laws like ones in L.A. that make it legal for a homeless person to pitch a tent in someone's front lawn (while it is illegal to live in your car and park on on-street residential parking), and the kicker is the homeowner can't do nuthing 'bout it. Let's not forget a statewide electrical grid that experiences rolling and frequent blackouts, and some of the highest fuel and energy prices in the nation, among god knows many others. So, as you can see, the taxpayers of the great Golden State receive *_top-notch services_* in exchange for some excessive tax rates, compared to other U.S. states at least.

L.A. and SF have massively abused property taxes as a way to fund personal interests. Bad voting decisions 20 years ago caught up with an aging population who locked in rates that benefited themselves. Moved to Cali in 2002 and it was tremendously expensive yet native Californians kept saying the COL was reasonable. 🤔 As new props popped up and got approved for other tax increases, those who voted for low taxes on properties of a certain age/locale didn’t care. It wasn’t until they moved that the sweet deal they had went sour. Some of the things they voted for in the 90s and early 2000s weren’t adjusted for inflation, thus making it messy. Politicians with self interests that helped them gentrify neighborhoods and milk reclassified blocks of homes came next. I left and moved back to Cali in 2018 and live inland.

It's really not possible to get a strong sense of his political leanings after watching this video. He says stuff like wanting to "support the state that's given him so much" but also complains of high taxes. In that sense I don't think it was political and he did a good job remaining neutral and pointing out only objective truths about the economics and included statistics that anyone would use to determine if a place was worth living in or not.

@Mike Davidson The US taxes on global wages so you’re not escaping the taxes unless you denounce your citizenship

I'd say it's only a matter of maybe 10 years before Texas becomes the next California. Which frankly is a good thing for the state despite the politicization people will bring to the discussion. Probably the main reason California is failing is its utter failure to address the housing crisis. If that was solved, there'd be much lower cost of living, less homelessness, etc. It's less about Democratic policies ruining things and more about ending NIMBYism, which is frankly a stupid view shared by people of all political backgrounds (though specifically progressive Democrats in California of course). Texas won't have this issue for a while due to the amount of land there, but it will happen if they don't learn from California's mistakes.

@Mike Davidson fellow foreign expat here. You have to pay US taxes no matter where you are in the world, unless you denounce your citizenship.

@Mike Davidson Tax in the UK is 20% of your wage... but you'll be on a good wage as a vet

@Sir We Are About to Die I disagree with what you said about having nice weather in LA is an extra premium that has to be paid. LA has always had nice weather and living there was a LITTLE more expensive that living in for example the midwest. Because people of my parents generation (1960's-70s) who left the midwest to live SF or LA were normal working people who were living in California were making it just fine because of the slightly high wages. But something happened in the mid-late 1990's where a switch got flipped and cost of living especially housing started doubling and tripling every couple years so now 25~ years later you can't buy a shack in SF for under $1.5 million or a decent house in LA for under $1 million while wages for normal working class people has been pretty much stagnant. How in the hell is someone making 40-50K a year going to pay a million dollar mortgage or a 2K-3K in rent? Similar things happened in NYC and other areas around the same time. I guess my point is LA has always had nice weather but something else happened in this country to drive these prices, this level of poverty, etc. and I just don't know what exactly happened. It wasn't always like this.

Well put.

There are so many people here that don't see the systemic issues that force people to make this choice, if employment has such little incentive that people would "choose to remain poor" because they're not better off than their current condition, maybe its a critique of how little incentive there is in employment. Maybe it means wages are so low that it's not worth all the trouble. If we don't look at the problem this way, your only solution is to take away the support and give people the very kind choice between starvation and death vs a miserable life low wage labor that barely improves their current condition. Or we can incentive working by making it more attractive and its benefits greater.

@lo11ery.winner Hes a democrat what do you expect, most of them are p-E-D-OS

@@lightzpy8049 HAHAHAHA So true

Casey and Candice will probably move to Texas or South Africa after LA

Oh please 🤣stfu your response is a joke

@@drew1980ish as a Californian, i definitely understand the concern.

Yeah please don't go to other States and turn it INTO California

Joey harper like other countries, they don’t want arrogant Americans going there. And, the Californians are the most arrogant of them all.

@@b-genspinster7895 yeah I'm from New Zealand and we don't want more Americans here 🤣

Tax. Tax. And more tax.

Yup and cost of living; plus a few other things

@@TommyBryson plus democrats. I left New York because of poor leadership and nonstop pandering. Never looked back.

:/ its unfortunate, best of luck in NY!

As long as you don’t bring the policies with you that broke Cali, you’ll do fine.

He brought up homeless people with mental issues. Please explain how things like taxes cause higher mental problems?

@@jd8184 less affordable, lower quality of life & big financial issues so increased depression, anxiety etc.?

@@richardf1157 wait so those homeless people are homeless cause of depression? So have to pay sales tax causes me to be homeless cause of depression? Gtfoh Im more concerned that rent in that are cost 3000 for a closet than that sales tax is high

@@jd8184 not sure where in my comment I stated homeless are homeless because of depression. Perhaps they have mental health issues because of their financial situation, how do you pay for that $3000 rent? With the money you get taxed higher on... which therefore leads to financial issues which CAN then lead to mental health issues.

@@richardf1157 then what are you even saying: "so increased depression, anxiety etc." - this seems to imply those mental factors cause homelessness The problem here is you are either intentionally or unintentionally conflating different types of mental problems. When Graham says mental issues hes talking about really serious problems like addiction, hallucination. You are talking about depression/anxiety, which are not nearly as damaging. The right answer is that higher cost of living can cause homelessness which can lead to drug addiction which can lead to serious mental disorders. But then the culprit would be higher rent/food prices. These are mostly caused by the amount of people living in these large metro areas. Taxes are but a small factor here, if we are being honest. If taxes were the only culprit then you would see the problem all over cali and not only in the la area or the bay area

😉 definitely in our horizon

funny I thought collabs with Ryan Pineda. He's more up and coming not quite big time yet

Who?

@ET Music I think he just doesn't want to go there.

@@DevinEagle exactly

@@vasisteel895 Quite frankly, in California there is only one side.

And most people that moves out off California are the same people who voted democrats. Stop voting democrats. And for those people who are moving to red state. Please don’t bring the same political views at the red state.

@Jonathan Griffiths Probably, but that's the attitude that destroys society.

The flashy Hollywood culture destroyed California.

Fuq it, I'll just squat for free 😌. I mean, if no one can afford to live there and there are lots of abandoned homes in the desert areas, may as well live there without paying 🤷🏾‍♀️ SOMEBODY has to benefit

If you don’t mind me asking, if you voted Democrat, do you still vote Democrat?

Yep rampant capitalism, the more successful economically the more the social system is destroyed.

Where have you moved to now?

Liberal left government without boundaries will affect your life.

@Hydro I'm voting blue down ballot & still following all of graham's videos. Sorry but trump is terrible.

No kidding, Newsom's policy is just making a terrible situation worse.

@@charlieclown9913 Meanwhile, he's moving to another liberal state in Nevada.

Sensei Adam - Brawl Stars how is Trump terrible?

Government is the problem not the solution.

mokshavortice right on!

Are you still in Zimbabwe?

The issue is the quantity of homeless outgrew the speed at with the government can implement solutions. It happened in Seattle and Portland as well and Denver Colorado where I live. Because they’re desirable cities the cost of living skyrockets (for example, more than half of the current subdivision of aurora didn’t exist in 2010, it hadn’t expanded to where it is now. It doubled in size alone in 10 short years) People underestimate that cost and get in their car and move, filling the state with people who likely will end up homeless or involved with crime EVEN IF THEY HAVE A FULL TIME JOB. Over 200k people move to California each month, and it takes multiple months to build 1 shelter that can house 1000 homeless Years to train social workers to help the mentally ill. No amount of money can correct that, the cures take months and the illness can take just DAYS

@@HeritageWealthPlanning Yes but I'm buying a tent and claiming refugee status and moving to Los Angeles for you guys to use your hard-earned cash to look after me while I watch youtube all day. The dems are insane. Truly off their rocker. The whole world is flocking to democratic cities to get a freebee while those who earn the money flee to texas and other states.
