Cuckifornia

What's the deal with this place?

It wasn't always cucked and used to be more conservative and voted consistently Republican.

What went wrong, when and why?

Number one in many things. The rest of US is behind by decade.

Republicans fucked up and let the Dems to get a foothold, just look at what happened when W was in office, his fuck ups got Obama elected twice.

Many things including poverty, illegal aliens, most welfare given, worst in education, highest cost of living, most property crime
It seems like the policies have benefited the very rich class while destroying the middle and lower ones.

I usually disregard National Review, but they have a good article on this:

As a working Californian I can verify that almost everything in that article is spot on

The State was pretty cucked already by 2000, wasnt it?

Spics desu

It was Reagan's fault

the republicans became the party of the rich and wanted lower taxes in the 1980s and California slowly backed away from that. You need a progressive tax rate to maintain infrastructure in a huge state like California. Plus the Schwarzenegger era proved how incompetent and taxless state is and our state almost fell apart as a result

no one reads national review, even trump lampooned that elitist crap.

Everyone wants to come to California considering we have some of the best universities and job opportunities in the country
