Hear! Hear! Very well put, Russ. But I’m not holding my breath, especially with Gavin Newsom cosplaying governor while running for president. I’m a Dem, but have always regarded Newsom as a slick empty suit.
I have 6 trees on my little property, I wanted to cut one down as it was ruining my deck. After HOA approval I went to my local government. I was told ok but had to replace it by planting another. “Where would you like it” I said. I was told I’d have to find a place on my property or maybe ask a neighbor if they’d like a tree. “Don’t you have a place that you’d like a tree,” I asked. Nope I was told it’s on you. I call regs like that regulatory hoops I have to jump through. Just a sample of living in California!
Does Klein's "14 stages" begin with Anger, Denial, Bargaining, Depression, Acceptance ? I agree with you on the California gasoline thing, the cost is killing me...as for holding out any hope for Newsom ...fuhgeddaboudit ! He's an empty suit with a Bill Maher haircut and if Demos groom him and trot him out for Prez, their party is truly doomed, if they aren't already.

One can dream, Dennis, one can dream!

But all worth it in the hamlet of HMB! As Frank Lloyd Wright once said, no matter what you people do to California it’s still beautiful!

Good start, Russ. You put a box around the problem.
JEP, again. Next time you come to Cali, get an audience with Pope Newsom. Unleash some woopass!!!!
