Ain't That Just Like California?

Trump has to love it. He can battle the idiots in Sacramento while pointing out to the nation what idiots Democrats are. No Republican needs California, they have a zero bargaining position.

Nonsense. His ass will be challenge............ Why do you think Trump will love it?
If the left had any self awareness you'd know the world has been laughing at your actions and responses to the election.
 
Should we ask Kentucky Colonels for leadership advice?

In my opinion, we should have State and federal Standards to establish. For example, every State capitol should connect with the federal capitol via high speed rail. In that same manner, county seats could be connected to State capitols.

Stations could connect the private sector at convenient locations.

That's going to be a hell of a bridge from Alaska and Hawaii... (Or do we not count as states in California?)
 
It's not anymore than many other crops.

"Statewide, what is the water footprint for cannabis versus other crops? Cal NORML estimates that in-state annual consumption for California is about 2 million pounds, or one billion grams. That figure could be multiplied by a factor of four to account for marijuana that is diverted out of state. At the high-end estimate of one gallon per gram, that means the cannabis crop in California, licit and illicit, uses around 12,000 acre-feet of water yearly if grown indoors; one third of that if grown outdoors. That compares favorably to grapes, which use 2.2 million acre-feet, rice at 2.8 million-acre feet, and almonds, which soak up 3.7 million acre-feet of water yearly. Overall 35-45 million acre-feet of water is used for agriculture in California, some 80% of the state's developed water supply. (Sources: http://www.motherjones.com/environment/2014/02/wheres-californias-water-... and http://www.nrdc.org/water/files/ca-water-supply-solutions-ag-efficiency-...)

This chart compares total water consumption by crop in California to cannabis’s consumption (in millions of acre-feet):



The biggest users alfalfa, which requires over 5 million acre-feet of water yearly, 70% of which goes to feed dairy cows. According to an estimate by professor Robert Glennon from Arizona College of Law, California is exporting 100 billion gallons of water a year to China in the form of alfalfa hay."

Dufus thinks Cannabis has been legally grown as a crop.
OMG, you are one stupid son of a bitch. First off, it is currently and has been grown legally for medical purposes. Second, I didn't say one way or another whether it is grown legally you stupid son of a bitch
One pot plant requires 6 gallons of water PER DAY, dufus.


And?

LMAO, what a stupid comment.
Dufus doesn't know fresh water availability is a problem in Calif.
Read the news, CA has plenty of water as of recent heavy rains.
 
California economy surges to No. 6 in global rankings

We’re No. 6.

Riding the latest high-tech boom and an overall statewide surge, California has leapfrogged France and Brazil to become the world’s sixth-largest economy, according to figures released Tuesday by Gov. Jerry Brown’s administration.

Using data from the International Monetary Fund and the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis, the state Department of Finance said California jumped ahead two spots in the annual rankings in 2015, up from No. 8 the year before.

it may take a while longer for them; how about an underwater tunnel?

Actually the world is laughing at us because of Trump ineptness. It's rare or none that a president of a country will side on adversaries or known enemy.

Ah... you're one of those ideological idiots who has no clue what they're talking about.

Here's a Google map, https://www.google.com/maps/@49.6648811,-121.4603363,3.87z

You have a look see at Honolulu, Hawaii and Juneau, Alaska and consider what you're saying. For the record, it is not even technologically possible to do /either/ of your requested things in Hawaii or Alaska.

Even if it /were/ possible that we could build an underwater tunnel to hold up against the atmospheric pressures of the Pacific Ocean (for 2,430 miles mind you,) and that we could get Canada to sign off on us building a high speed train through their nation, and that we could /afford/ the monumental hundreds of billions of dollar project, and that's not even getting into the costs, economic impacts, and technological hurdles of "connecting all counties to the state capitals", what exactly is the purpose of your idealistic mental adventure of high speed trains? You believe that connecting these things will some how improve jack?

You son are a perfect example of why the Electoral College is far, far more beneficial to this nation than Popular Vote.

Don't fuck with California

California has "the sixth largest economy on planet Earth." This comparison rests on California's $2.4 trillion GDP, which moved slightly above that of France and Brazil in 2015 to sixth in the world.

Calexit could make California the worlds sixthlargest economy Will it happen - MarketWatch

Beginning in 2018 the multi billion dollar cash crop, Marijuana, will add to our states GDP, and reduce costs to local government in terms of law enforcement (police, probation, courts). Bad for the Pharmaceutical and Adult Beverage Industries, but ending of the black market will increase tax revenue and continue California as an economic behemoth.
Maybe not. Pot is water intensive.
Marijuana is not anymore water intensive than many other crops.

You still can't tell us what California can do to oppose Trump.

And Calpers is imploding. California is the next Detroit by 2018.

Sure it does.
That explains the millions of empty acres that was once farmland and why water costs continue to skyrocket.
