All the Gays? I just did a search- Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) account for 4.8% of the population in California, 4.9 in Oregon, 4.8 in Nevada, 8.6 in District of Columbia, 5.3 in Vermont. California is near the top but I suspect it is because they are more open about their sexual preferences, not because they flock there.
California's problem is the the left wing liberal politicians that have gained control of the state. If you pay attention to the Democratic debates and see all the loony socialists stumbling over themselves to be more outrageous than the next, then you'll get an idea what California's politicians are like. They are proud to condone open borders, sanctuary cities, the highest taxes of any state, and free healthcare and welfare for illegals. I think they even give illegals drivers licenses now. Idiots. I'm glad I left, and yes earthquakes are one of the reasons. If they ever get that predicted 8.0 in a populated area it will be devastating. You can't beat the weather in southern Cal, but the overcrowding, cost of living and the political mess are its undoing.
