California Underground to Pennsylvanians: We Are Doomed but You Still Have a Chance – A Warning from the Heart of Wokeness
Normally, what you would hear from California is that we are at the cutting edge of progressive reforms and we are leading the nation toward social justice, exuberant diversity, unparalleled innovation, and a cleaner environment. We, Californians, are proud to be the fifth-largest economy in the world in terms of GDP, and to be the home of the motion picture industry and Silicon Valley’s high-tech empire, making the U.S. competitive with other developed nations.
What you won’t hear from Californians are our dirty little secrets and our big little lies (even though that show was pretty brilliant). Well, it’s time for us to come clean and warn you, residents of Pennsylvania, not to fall into the same trap where we found ourselves now with no way out.
Exorbitant Cost of Living
If you travel to California, you will feel like you are visiting an expensive foreign country. Aside from the fact that many of us speak Spanish and other languages, the prices for EVERYTHING are much higher than in Pennsylvania. Our gas prices are much higher, our housing prices are much higher, our dining out is more costly, and our groceries are more expensive – everything is more expensive in California, especially in its urban centers like San Francisco, Los Angeles, and San Diego. Why?
Because both our voters and our “progressive” and let’s be honest – socialist government – supported higher taxes on businesses and the middle class, pro-labor regulations for businesses, and unsustainable tenant protections and rent control type of ordinances.
Naturally, businesses passed on their costs to consumers and landlords who couldn’t evict non-paying tenants decided to offset losses by charging new ones more plus many landlords realized that the California government won’t stop the strangulation of private property owners and just sold their properties and left.
The exodus of the California population to more capitalist pro-business states made us lose the population to the point that we lost one congressional seat and are probably on track to lose more. This is accompanied by the exodus of large companies like Tesla, Big Lots, Walgreens, CVS, Sephora, North Face, and many others!
Reasonable voters who want to change something and vote progressive socialists out of the office are vastly outnumbered by those who don’t care about our state and only care about getting more freebies from the government and unsustainably expanding the rights of the worst members of the population like criminals and homeless or lazy and negligent employees who don’t care about customers.
Another problem that we have here is that our government wants to urbanize the state and eliminates the zoning ordinances that limited the density of the population. This certainly worsens the quality of life for homeowners and any local population that will be suffering the invasion of displaced by gentrification uncivilized low income or no income apartment building tenants into previously quiet and civilized middle-class neighborhoods. In other words, gentrification in the ghetto moves the ghetto into previously upscale neighborhoods when zoning laws are eliminated by the state.
On top of these trends, urbanization further lowers our quality of life because the more urbanized the area is, the easier it is for the criminals to operate there robbing people on the street, smashing and grabbing businesses, burglarizing homes.
Pennsylvania is moving in the same direction of much higher cost of living and much lower quality of life. If you don’t want your state to become the next California, don’t support the ideas and politicians that promote progressive anti-business anti-private property laws! Support NIMBY (“Not in My Backyard”) zoning no matter how selfish it may sound – it will stop dangerous urbanization of your area and turning it into a crime-infested and dirty ghetto with homeless encampments all over the place like here in California. Support lower taxes on businesses and downsizing of the social safety net programs for parasites who don’t want to work – progressives will shame you and demonize the “rich” but look at what happened to Californians who succumbed to progressive propaganda and are now paying a high price for being compassionate to government and ghetto parasites!
Draconian Taxation and Anti-Business Regulations
California voters and political leaders have supported higher taxes to fund expansive (and VERY EXPENSIVE) social programs, environmental initiatives, and public services. However, these policies have also increased the tax burden on businesses and mid and high-income individuals, prompting many to relocate to states with lower taxes. The business climate in California has become more hostile to companies, particularly in sectors like manufacturing and tech, as a result of high taxes and strict regulations.
Brainwashed by mainstream media dominated by progressive Democrats, the majority of voters in California have prioritized progressive policies such as universal healthcare, climate change initiatives, and social justice programs, all of which require significant funding. However, the tax burden required to support these initiatives has driven many businesses and successful and productive individuals to leave the state, leading to a shrinking tax base. This is how we ended up with a $68 billion budget deficit for the 2024/25 fiscal year!!
An enormous government apparatus with unionized public sector workers, millions of undocumented migrants, over 180,000 strong zombie army of the homeless all needed a lot of money to support them. Undocumented migrants alone were authorized to get food stamps, medical and exactly the same public services as everyone else. The need to provide public services and shelters for the Zombie army of the homeless provided fertile ground for major corruption where taxpayers ended up overpaying for nurses, social workers, and construction to take care of the homeless thugs and drug addicts. An easy solution is available but no one here dares to even talk about it: move more functional homeless into “Nomadland” movie-like encampments far away from the city into the Mojave Desert! Move dysfunctional ones and drug addicts to maximum security clinics either on uninhabited islands next to Catalina Island or somewhere far in the sparsely populated mountains – California voters authorized billions of dollars to “fight homelessness” and all that money is being wasted on keeping them in urban areas and supporting the corrupt infrastructure around them.
Rampant Crime
Starting when the current leading presidential candidate was still California attorney general, our crime rates began to rise. She took part in making it more difficult for police to do the policing – forcing them to wear body cameras, to always look over their shoulder in the line of duty. K.H. opposed the death penalty even though California voters favored it considering the degree of cruelty our criminals inflict on their victims before they kill them. A wave of liberal DA appointments funded by politically motivated outside groups brought our criminal justice system to its knees.
In recent years, our criminal justice system turned into a joke – and our population is living in fear, victimized in the streets and in our homes by both domestic and foreign gangs. Property crimes are not being prosecuted at all. If you steal from Target in the amount of less than $950 it’s not even considered to be a real crime anymore – it’s an infraction! As a result, many chain stores have to keep toothpaste and basic personal hygiene items locked, many stores including luxury stores suffered losses due to smash and grab robberies, some decided to close like Target in Oakland. When Los Angelinos tried to recall DA Gascon who refuses to prosecute criminals, we gathered over 750,000 signatures even though only 525,000 were needed to recall him, but local officials mysteriously invalidated just enough signatures for the measure not to pass the 525,000 threshold and Gascon still keeps terrorizing Los Angeles and helping the criminals.
Philadelphia has long suffered from high crime rates but perhaps the rest of your state can still be spared and the situation in Philly could also improve if you refuse to support soft on crime District attorneys, build more prisons and listen to victims when imposing the punishment that fits the crime!
Government Tyranny and Oppression of Dissent
Even though independents and Republicans together outnumber Democrats in California – Democrats completely dominate our state politics with their supermajority and suppress any dissent that has no resources to challenge the Democrats. This would be an ideal situation for any party to prevent sabotage by the opposition and actually get things done. However, in California, what Democrats are doing is expanding their unchallenged control over the population, cracking down on our freedoms, dictating to us how much water we can use, what kind of grass we should plant in our backyard, what kind of cars we should drive, in what kind of homes or more preferably claustrophobic mixed-use building apartments we should live in, what kind of ineffective weapons we can use to defend ourselves against criminals, etc. Our government was the leader in COVID shutdowns taking draconian measures to destroy our economy during COVID but never letting go after COVID. Our governor Newsome and his cronies in the state legislature are in the business of robbing anyone who has income to support an army of bureaucrats, homeless zombie thugs, and welfare addicts at our expense.
Just let your governor Shapiro and his progressive friends get more power and they will turn your state into California with rampant crime and homelessness, unsustainable social safety net expansion to feed bureaucracy and welfare addict parasites at your expense and depressing future. If you give them a stable majority they will rule by an iron fist, trample on your basic freedoms, and stick their dirty hands into your pockets!
Migration and Demographic Shifts
In our state, high taxes, a high cost of living, and political polarization have contributed to a significant outmigration of both businesses and residents. Many middle-class families, in particular, have left for states like Texas, Nevada, and Arizona, where taxes are lower and housing is more affordable. This has resulted in a shrinking tax base and dwindling middle class and home ownership. Even undocumented migrants who are seeking better living conditions, safety, and jobs are fleeing our state! The undocumented population of hardworking Latino migrants gets victimized by mostly black gangs and street thugs they share impoverished neighborhoods with. Liberal district attorneys refuse to prosecute robbers, burglars, thieves, and assailants if they happen to be black because of the orders from above to combat systemic racism in the criminal justice system! The Black community is plagued by the culture of violence, drug addiction, and dependency on the Democrat party’s government handouts instead of being made self-sufficient.
Who remains in California? Only those parasites who expect to stay dependent on government benefits and unsustainable poor quality government-run healthcare and those who are trapped here due to various personal circumstances. There are also a few remaining affluent areas with local Republican government in Southern California that are well-run, clean, safe, and functional – Beverly Hills, Calabasas, Palos Verdes, many parts of Orange County just to name a few but the rest of the urban areas have turned into a crime-infested ghetto.
Pennsylvania has not yet experienced an exodus on the scale of California, but certain areas, particularly rural regions, are seeing population decline as young people move to urban centers or other states. If Pennsylvania follows California’s lead in raising taxes and increasing regulation, it could see similar population shifts, with residents leaving for more business- and family-friendly states.
Conclusion:
The tragic decline and devastation of California have been driven by a combination of Democrat policy decisions and voter choices that have promoted utopian progressive ideals, environmental hysteria-based regulation that kills industries, unsustainable social services, and anti-business pro-labor laws and suffocating taxation. While these policies reflect the will of the brainwashed voters, they have also contributed to devastating economic and social challenges, including housing shortages, population outmigration, and political polarization.
While California is in a freefall into the abyss, Pennsylvania is still balancing on the edge of a cliff. Voters and policymakers in Pennsylvania should learn from the tragedy of California and stop Democrats from pushing Pennsylvania off the edge of the cliff. A wolf in a sheep’s skin, Shapiro may still pretend to be a “moderate” because he hasn’t gained as much power yet as Newsome possesses now, but as soon as he gets his supermajority, he will become a dictator like Gavin Newsome – no doubt about it.
We, in California, know better than anyone else what it’s like to live and struggle to survive under the tyranny of progressive Democrats. Therefore, it’s our responsibility to warn Pennsylvania and all other states that are in danger of turning blue to stop and fight back before it’s too late! Not everyone in California is a fanatical Democrat, and not everyone is a sheep. There are millions of people who understand what is going on and are ready to resist the tyrannical regime even here – but our struggle is going to take a very long time to convince enough normal Californians that they must not trust our leaders and their utopian and sick ideology.
Pennsylvanians may still save themselves and should not trust wolves in the sheep’s skin like Shapiro and his communist comrades in the Pennsylvania state legislature. This is not only about voter choices, this is also about lifestyle choices: starting your own business instead of working for someone else, living in a house instead of living in an apartment, keeping your basic freedoms intact, not listening to mainstream media, questioning your government and demanding answers; not sharing with parasites who have nothing to offer in return; not being ashamed to passionately hate criminals, drug addict thugs, and disgusting and dangerous homeless zombies. Pay attention, Pennsylvanians, to our message from the dark socialist abyss, from the heart of wokeness, the land of the brainwashed bleeding heart liberals and arrogant Hollywood elites – if you do nothing, you are going to be next!
