The only reason why you don't feel sorry for Californians is because "you got yours."

Median in FL is $189,500; median in CA is $477,700. I would say YOU got yours.

The reason, and it may not be fair, people don't feel sorry for Californians is because California has been a place where arrogant leftspeaking extremists have thumbed their nose at decent hard working people all over the world for decades. Now they've socialistically and extravagantly bankrupted themselves by squandering fantastic natural resources and opportunity.

Do they back up a step and suggest a rethink of the system like Israel did a while back? No, some of them move here to Colorado and tell us what's wrong with our conservative life styles, well enough that we are now a blue state I guess.

Do they tighten their belts and get to work, retool, think anew? No, they issue IOUs and call on bail outs from the federal gov., who they blame ala Bush. Everything but admit mistakes were made by them... didn't tejek come from there? Sounds about right.

It's hard to feel sorry, for people who behave that way.
