That’s a pretty bullish bear.

A couple of considerations that most folks don’t realize: the majority of that Walmart junk bought in the Midwest passes through the ports in California. Entertainment is one of our hugest exports.

All true. Many of our advantages are natural. Location, resources. But plenty is self made too.

Perhaps California should replace the bear on the flag with one of the bulls from Wall Street?

All true. Many of our advantages are natural. Location, resources. But plenty is self made too.

Cities are the drivers of economic prosperity. The unparalleled Silicon Valley innovation center (despite the excesses, as parodied on the HBO show), and the amazing ingenuity coming out of the massive cultural mash-up that is SoCal … these are the pathways to the future.

Which scares the shit out of the old geezers clinging stubbornly to their worn-out images of prosperity of “Smokestack Industries”. They want to roll back the clock to an America where a few oligarchs owned the mines, steel mills and auto factories.

Not the growing ecosystem of California, where thousands of small businesses all create good jobs without having to crush employees with dangerous working conditions while spewing racist hate at non-whites. Too bad, losers.
