Sometimes I wish California would simply purge all republicans so it can become the bluest of blue state. That way, we can have a large scale experiment to see what kind of "utopia" will be cooked up under 100% liberal control.

You don't even have to wait for that. The economy of California today rivals economy of certain continents and large countries like Russia. And people are some of the most awesome kind assembled in there, in the entire history of human race.

Only nice things seem to be coming out of this experiment.


Don't we already have this on a small scale in the San Francisco Bay Area?


lol. SF home owners & board of supervisors have over time voted against housing density to keep a neighborhood as-is, believe it was perfect the day they arrived, and that proposed changes to it must be stopped, definition of a conservative. Many of these were the anti-establishment in the 1960s and 1970s turned conservative once they became the establishment. They just don't want to admit it to themselves.


Ditto but reverse it all with Texas.


So, Burning Man?
