A new dominant class of oligarchs and woke bureaucrats has bled the Golden State dry.
For generations, California has led the world in creating cutting-edge ideas and opportunities for newcomers. As actor-turned-governor of California Arnold Schwarzenegger once said:
‘We are the modern equivalent of the ancient city-states of Athens and Sparta… Not only can we lead California into the future… we can show the nation and the world how to get there.’
Today, the Golden State once again foreshadows the future, but this time it should be read as a warning.
