that interests me greatly.
when i moved from san francisco to austin i was surprised by how many "don't california my texas" bumper stickers and flags shown everywhere. at first i attributed it to having to switch to driving for my commute and i thought it was odd that i had never sensed a such a reciprocated sentiment expressed while lived in all of california; much less be so ubiquitous every you go.
yours is the first i've ever heard.
Most of our bagging on Texas is talking about how cute it is they think they're in the same league as us, economically.
it's still strange to hear (read) a californian say it since it always felt like a uniquely texan obsession comparing themselves to california and i felt it was lofty at best (and collective short-guy syndrome at worst) since california has around 33% to 50% more of everything than texas except land area.
because of that:
california + texas can steamroll the rest of the nation
california + new york can steamroll the rest of the nation
california + florida can steamroll the rest of the nation
no combination of the others can do the same, except maybe all three; meaning that california is an outlier so comparisons to it are mostly self defeating and comparisons to new york or florida seemed non-existent when i lived in texas.
