Kaitlin for Governor?
Wait, now even California Democrats are becoming YIMBY or at least less NIMBY. Wow… That’s how you know the flood of businesses leaving the state is starting to scare them.

California cannot fix its intellectual problem by changing (for worse) its zoning rules. Misguided intellectualism cannot by fixed by any other means.
Newsom is using a illegal budgeting scheme to beat the recall. He plans on giving away 75 billion in surplus tax revenues to his voting block and even to many illegals that can’t vote.
In actually the surplus is only $37 billion and should be used for tax relief. Gray Davis also lied about the budget and was recalled.
Yes
You’d think someone would suggest putting money towards the unfunded pension liabilities. Nah. That’s crazy talk.
Texans are so tough they don’t need health insurance.
- Texas easily has the highest rate of uninsured people of any state in the country, with 18.4% of the entire state’s population without coverage.
- Our map shows that across the South, many states have double-digit percentages of uninsured people, including Oklahoma (14.3%), Georgia (13.4%) and Florida (13.2%).
- Massachusetts has the single best rate of insurance coverage in the country, with only 3% lacking coverage.
- There’s a cluster of states in the Northeast with similarly low rates of uninsured people, highlighting a major regional gap between the North and South for health insurance coverage.
Florida?
I thought they were all on Medicare.
Interstingly the max threshold to still get on the ACA exchange is higher in AZ than in CA. And though you would think the higher number of uninsured would make insurance more expensive for everyone else it doesn’t. Same or slightly lower rates than CA. So to each their own. Maybe well insured people consume healthcare needlessly. Or maybe AZ charging smokers double helps - CA made that illegal (discriminates against the poor).
Patents granted to each state.
California has 1/3 more people than Texas but almost 4X the number of patents granted.
Well at least Texas is not as dumb as Florida. Only 1/9 of CA’s output with half CA’s population.

Still talking about the irrelevant.
Annualized price appreciation (ie. exclude rental yield) of my rental SFHs in Austin is 15-20% since purchase… match that
Using my own experience, annualized price appreciation in CU is 4-8% since purchase, nowhere near Austin. In addition, rental yield and cashflow in CU are much lower than in Austin.
Currently, pay of SWEs in Seattle is similar to SV… Austin should follow. Lower house price and no income tax, large square footage and large lot… no brainer which place is better.
Is Texas counted in Southwest? I know Southwest Airlines is based in Houston.
no Texas is it’s own thing - neither South or Southwest.
Hilarious. The Democrats are too dumb to get out of their own way. They want to make house builders unionized. Houses have never been built by unions.
