California remains the 5th richest state by nominal GDP per capita in the US in 2024. If commiefornia is so successful then maybe it is time for the rest of America to become more "Commie" to succeed.

California GDP is so significantly high is Silicon Valley
And they're starting the slow transition
towards moving to Austin
They're seeing a mass exodus of people from the state
and cost of living 
is unbearable if you don't come from wealth
It's a U.S. state
so it will always be a higher gdp than any (non tax haven) euro country 
but it's not exactly moving in a positive 
direction recently and seems to be moving into more aggressive actions ensuring lessened growth and loss of industry

California is still the richest state in the US. I will worry the day it reaches second place.

It'll survive and I stated as such. Frick even our worst state
gdp wise, Mississippi, has a higher gdp than almost all euro nations 
besides Germany, but letting things get worse while sticking your head in the sand is r-slurred 
when you could improve

Really? How are things getting worse when everybody's life and wealth are improving? Which part of this is worse anon?

Life for the average Californian hasn't improved?
Hence the exodus they've been seeing
Again it's not end of the world
and the state 
will go bankrupt
But it's definitely being trending
in a negative 
way for years now and the post above is an example of a bad idea that will continue that trend

The government is r-slurred, but California industry keeps chugging along despite this. The 'mass exodus' is talked about a lot as well but the numbers just don't back up the narrative. Every surrounding state feels like everyone in California is leaving, but that's just because there's so God darned many of them. An unnoticed blip in commie demographics is a deluge in Idaho. And it doesn't hurt that they're always so fricking obnoxious about being ex-Commiefornians

CA lost a house seat for the first time in its history in 2020, and would have lost 2 if not for r-slurred/biased census takers.
The numbers do in fact back up the narrative.

Neighbor in the past 4 years tech has only continued to concentrate in the Silicon Valley, which isn't even that big a portion of California's economy. Investments in places like Austin have stagnated while they only continue to soar in the Bay. Even places like Seattle outpace Austin. Said Bay only has a GDP of 700 Billion, still massive but less than 20% of California's GDP.

Which commie policies do you think led to this incredible growth?

It doesn't matter, GDP growth is all the proof I need. Just because I am not smart enough to understand how it happened doesn't mean the output isn't real. I judge things by results not ideology.

They're successful because they have beautiful weather and are a hub to Asia. Their policies didn't make Facebook and Apple the companies they became

Okay and? California has the largest GDP among all US states. That is all that matters. Your ideological leanings are getting in the way of implementing policies that make a state rich.
