Income, life expectancy, healthcare access. Union membership. Cali home prices are unaffordable because people want to live there and are willing to pay for it.
I mean it guess they’re not banning books or switching to school vouchers but I’m pretty sure low income households are doing just as bad if not worse over there

Guess you have been living under a rock. Strong economy AND strong worker protections, lots of unions, high minimum wage, robust anti-discrimination laws, there’s countless things that make life in California better for low income households.
Lol, those are bellwether economic statistics for any state, it’s not ‘cherry picking’.
Capital D democrats love California because it’s a democratic stronghold and a testing ground for all kinds of liberal policy, but it’s also dominated by capital interests. In terms of GDP it represents 1/6th of the entire US economy.

In what way is CA doing ‘pretty damn good’…?

By bulldozing homeless camps I guess.

Gee, I can’t imagine what motivation you would have to cherry pick stats to try and make California look bad
