Jerry Brown on a California Exodus: ‘Tell Me: Where Are You Going to Go?’

From his ranch, the former California governor is experiencing the same smoky air
wafting through much of the state. “We are causing this,” he declared in an interview.

While much of the left would prefer to blame California's problems on global warming or climate change, what is happening there is not happening in Canada or Mexico or most other states.  It is happening there because of poor forest management.  They have blocked the loggers from taking out trees and thinning the fuel for the fires.  They have failed to clear the underbrush.  They have not done enough to go after the pyromaniacs of BLM and Antifa.

Washington Post:

The California Dream has become the California Compromise

The realities of flooding, drought, wildfires and high costs are weighing on a weary public. For the first time in a decade, more people left California last year than arrived. 

There are more reasons to leave than stay for many.  Beyond the flooding, drought, wildfires, and high costs, the evils of liberalism and the climate kooks are significant problems.
