Instapundit links to a Market Watch report that nearly half of the nation’s half million homeless live in California. I guess we were supposed to be shocked by that, I had another reaction altogether.
We owe CA a debt of gratitude for warehousing so many of our crazies, addicts, and square pegs. Perhaps other states could buy bus tickets for their homeless so CA could host an even greater percentage of the total.
In all honesty, if you had to live rough - in a tent or car - wouldn’t you choose CA for climatic reasons alone. It is not humid, doesn’t rain a lot and rarely freezes along the coastal fringe. The lovely liberals in Sacramento make sure you won’t starve or lack medical care, and recreational pharmaceuticals are widely available, though hardly free.
