Ah, but will it be Republican red or Communist red...?california has a long history of populist revolts.
A very long history, smart money is that when we hit the wall and collapse the state will turn blood red.

Except they will have no water. You can't drink money.If California was an independant country it would, by itself, have a larger economy than every country except for the rest of the US, China, Japan, and Germany.
You've never seen someone weathy give a homeless person several gallons of water instead of doing the sensible thing and just handing them all of their cash.Except they will have no water. You can't drink money.
But for how long?If California was an independant country it would, by itself, have a larger economy than every country except for the rest of the US, China, Japan, and Germany.
But for how long?
It won't come. Some people, like the Californians, are just inherently subversient. You could force them out of their homes to place the elites or soldiers there, and they'd meekly accept it. Even if all their properties got seized. There's not a single antiauthorian bone in them.We literally live next to the ocean and desalination tech keeps getting better. But provoking a populist backlash and turning the state bolld red works too I guess.

As if that's going to stop anyone sufficiently pissed-off at her.She's now looking to retire in Florida, and has already bought property there most likely for her own safety.
Y'know, a diabolical mindset could pump the demorats for every bit of concessions they can get only to renege on their part and letting Commiefornia collapse anyway, acting in the same bad faith the Demorats used the past, oh say, 40 years. Sure, it would make tensions higher and "cooperations" even more unlikely. But personally I wouldn't care much. You know why? Because the demorats have abused this kind of thing for far too long to not get hit with their own tools they used so liberally.Which means that the democrats will have no choice but to give the republicans a lot of things they want or the state heads into the final outcome.
economic collapse.

the other side of the coin is the Cali state government is banking of a federal bail out. admittedly like a fair few other state and local governments. if we fail to get and keep federal purse strings that may just become the whole country's problem and the Progs will keep pushing.As if that's going to stop anyone sufficiently pissed-off at her.

My prediction is that if these problems are not dealt with California will either become a battleground state or turn red.
True enough. They have everything quite rigged.CA will NEVER be a Red State anytime soon.

It would be easier to believe that it would collapse into anarchy rather than let itself go red at this point.
