Also, homeless people flock to California for very obvious reasons, which have little to do with California’s politics. If I had to live outside, but could afford a Greyhound ticket to the land of 75° and sunny 24/7-365, I’d be on that damn bus in a heartbeat. Who wouldn’t?

That’s false, the homeless population has to do with Californias politics. For one, it is very expensive to live in California. Also, Californians are leaving in California because of the politics.

Common sense. Increasing taxes higher on the rich would result in them increasing the prices of their products. Plus people want them to pay their employees more so which would result in another increase. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to understand this
