You're reading too much right-wing propaganda!  

California is an amazingly diverse and beautiful state.  The state has billions of dollars in budget surplus. It has some of the most progressive laws in the country in terms of pollution, climate change and keeping guns out of the hands of insane people.  It's also got tremendous natural beauty--incomparable Redwood forests, many state and national parks,  a large, diverse and well-educated population, particularly in the coastal cities, and is abundant in creative energy in the arts, sciences and technology.  

Does it have problems?  Of course it does, like every other state in the nation there are criminals, defectives, sociopaths, ill-informed, mis-informed ignoramuses walking around.  We've got our share of hate-groups, homophobics, racists and other scapegoating malcontents, but that's true throughout the country.   ?
