As a Californian, I’ve seen the horrible changes sweeping the state

As a Californian, I can highly relate as to what is going on in this state.  I’m 26 years old, and even at my age, I’ve seen the horrible changes sweeping the state. I grew up in the small rural community of Lake Isabella (about 30 miles north east of Bakersfield) and even here, crime is becoming more common.

California is also near fulfilling the environmentalist dream of deindustrialization.

No job is too small to escape the regulators. The state has even banned weekend amateur gold miners from the historic gold mining streams in the Sierra Nevada [...]
