I’d be totally fine with this, as a Californian if this didn’t mean I had to pay taxes to support the red state leeches who will double lose now.
As stupid as they are, we’re going to need to keep the country together somehow. If for no other reason than to not have them immigrate to states that aren’t fucked up and become “welfare queens,” in their own words.
