"The real problem is that 300,000 to 500,000 Californians are leaving the state. They can't put up with what I just discussed. They're sick of it." — Victor Davis Hanson
California has some of the highest taxes and energy costs in the country, but residents say quality of life is getting worse. Yet voters continue to keep the same political leadership in power.
The issue isn't just policy failure—it's a massive population shift. As taxpayers and businesses leave, they are being replaced by a population dependent on government programs, while the wealthy political elite remains insulated from the consequences.
Hanson explains why he believes California is stuck in a "doom loop" and what the state's future will look like if current trends continue on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.”
