I have a fairly idea of how messed up the state, though I expect the clarity to expand 10-fold when I move to a red and opened state. Nevertheless, knowledge has been a limiting factor for leaving since I have never carried out such a deed. I am slowly learning now from others on what I need to do and how to do it.
I agree, it is so much worse, the blight is everywhere and within that blight are notices that remind the homeless that the state does not have the authority to remove their piles of trash/belongings. Of course, it is typical CA to put in the effort to ensure these encampments remain undisturbed than putting in effort to give people the tools needed to provide for themselves
