We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.
-
Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.
A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

I see that in Oregon as well, moving here because they destroyed California with their politics. My concern is they will move like locusts consuming all the resources and leaving a wasteland behind like they did in California. I can already see where they are starting to do that in Oregon.
This is emotionally loaded, misleading, and just silly.
And anybody could just as easily claim Texas has been destroyed by their politics. It's just a meaningless statement.
It seems clear that most young people can't afford to live in California anymore. This is simply due to a lack of housing. Even as the economy grew, housing didn't keep pace because of single family zoning (thanks to pro-auto lobbying) and nimbyism.
No doubt, California sucks now. When I was a kid, there were miles and miles of orchards and farms. They chopped down all the cherry trees, all the orchards, to build the industrial parks of silicon valley. All the fish disappeared from the creeks and streams. I guess old people always complain about how things have changed.
How about you instead focus on something that actually matters:

Young voters overwhelmingly say they would support President Biden over former President Trump in a hypothetical head-to-head match-up if the 2024 presidential election were held today, according to a poll released Wednesday.
In the Economist/YouGov poll — conducted via web-based interviews Dec. 16-18 — more than half (53 percent) of registered voters under 30 said they would support Biden, and less than a quarter (24 percent) said they would support Trump.
Another 10 percent said they would support another candidate, 4 percent said they were not sure, and 9 percent said they wouldn’t vote.
The younger generations are voting more and more. And they are seeing through the bullshit.
And thanks for trying to change the topic. What does that have to do with California and the locust leaving?
