No doubt California is a mess... but blaming Hollywood is a typical diversion. And there is no mention of the ultra conservative Proposition 13 that froze tax levels at a very low rate. By the time I got to CA 15 years later, the infrastructure had already started to deteriorate badly, schools were seriously overcrowded and many of the people who were native had fleed the state....all because there was not enough money to go around. Now why would anyone want to pay taxes and only see things get worse from one year to the next. You put a slowly tightening noose around the neck of a person is it any surprise if that person slowly begins to die?
