Joe Concha writes opinion for The Hill. Today he reports that Democrats fearful of Biden losing a reelection bid, are turning to California's Gov. Gavin Newsom.
Compared to Biden, Newsom is younger, more sure-footed, and has better hair, if you don't mind a lot of gel. And he has been attacking Florida and its Gov. DeSantis, asking people to come to CA.
But here are the numbers:California unemployment: 4.3 percent.Florida unemployment: 2.8 percent.California income tax rate: 13.3 percent.Florida income tax rate: 0.0 percent.
And according to the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness website, California has 27.89% of the nation's homeless. With one-eighth of the U.S. population, CA has more than one quarter of all homeless, twice their proportional share. No wonder the employed are leaving. As Concha writes:
What exactly does the bumper sticker look like? VOTE NEWSOM: He’ll do for America what he did for California!
Yeah, no. Making a paradise repulsive, that's Newsom.
