California residents, businesses consider bailing on Golden State over taxes

41. Why the need to debunk it?

I realize that it's Faux News and almost certainly bullshit, but as a Californian, I actually wish the article was true. Who the hell needs a bunch of cheap asses living here anyways? We live in one of the most beautiful states in the world. We have every kind of climate, every kind of amusement park, every kind of ethnic food, every kind of outdoor activity, basically anything you can want here. We have Silicon Valley, Hollywood, some of the best universities, the tallest Redwood trees in the world, and some of the most beautiful parks in the world. We make A LOT of the world's best wine and grow some of the best bud too. We were the birth place of the hippie movement and one of the strongholds in the fight for gay rights.

If you don't think living here is worth a little bit of your paycheck every month to see to it that our beautiful environment is protected, our schools are thriving, our roads are worth driving on, and our public transportation flows freely, then hey, get the fuck out of here and leave this beautiful state to those that aren't too cheap to protect it!
