Down the street from us we went to an estate sale. Actually it was a retirement sale. The people were selling their home and most of its contents and planning on hitting the road in an RV. The house is going to list at $450,000. The neighbors are laughing. They think the price is ridiculous. They don’t know people from California.
We had some fun telling them that maybe Maxine Waters would be looking for a place to hide when she retires. Or maybe Diane Feinstein would take a look. The neighbors were not amused. I think they may take up a collection to buy the house themselves.
People leaving California are pushing home prices up in Texas. In many towns the locals are being priced out of the market. It is not uncommon for someone to sell their home in California and buy two or three houses in Texas. If we could administer a clear thinking test that would not bother me but one of the things I noticed in years of teaching is that graffiti artists always like to find the cleanest wall or book to practice their creativity. After years of working to destroy California the liberals want to retire to areas that have not gone down hill so much. The problem is that they bring their politics with them.
So I recommend that we build the wall but start with the eastern border of the People’s Republik of Kalifornia.
