We are totally screwed at this point no thanks to the incredible wealth disparity and old guarded wealth starting in your CA

I thought old guarded wealth (old money) started on the East Coast and was concentrated in New England. Exactly how old is "old money" in California? Are you saying that the wealth disparity in California is spreading throughout the rest of the US?

I am out there constantly serving the working class how about YOU?

If we are paying our taxes, are we helping the working class with food assistance and unemployment insurance and scholarships and good schools?

I've been to Florida three times and enjoyed my stays very much. A cousin of mine lived in Kendall for a time. I did notice some wealth disparity in Naples and West Palm Beach. Do you see that as a similar problem compared to some parts of California?

Dan Gilbert has many talks on happiness, and asks people if they think they would be happier living in California. Many people say yes, but only while they are thinking about California. When they stop thinking about it, they aren't less happy where they actually live. For people living in California, they forget that California has nice beaches because they are stuck in heavy traffic or have to earn more to get by.
