You must have a pretty good income level if you feel like this state is it all functional. Affordability & wealth inequality are at dystopian levels far beyond any other state. I’m making the most I ever have in my life & still living like a goddamn college student barely covering basic expenses.
To be fair, I’m not blaming it all on just Gavin. It’s the cancerous growth of the tech industry & generalized US wealth inequality, structurally reinforced by the evisceration of organized labor & corporate regulatory capture that got us here. But Gavin is part of the problem, not the solution.
Inequality is a huge problem and this state is insanely expensive, true. I'm in favor of UBI and California needs to do a far better job of affordability and building housing.
