The history of the present Governor and Government of California is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of a Tyranny over the Counties of New California and the State of California.
Whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to seek a constitutional remedy to the abuse of powers.
We the people of the Counties of New California solemnly publish and declare these counties are, and of Right ought to be, a free and Independent State, that we strive to be free from the State of California, and that as a Free and Independent State, have full power to establish and maintain law and order, to promote general prosperity, and to do all other acts and things, which an Independent New California State may rightfully do.
We, therefore, the Representatives of the Counties of New California, appeal to the California Legislature and the Federal Congress to pass resolutions to create the State of New California. And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our Sacred Honor.

That is illegal, unconstitutional and I would say treasonous. Move to a crappy red state like Idaho.
At least Idaho exists on its own merits.

Exactly. States rights. STATES, All the people of a state, not just some. Let the people of California who do not like the direction the state is taking mobilize and work within the states political spectrum to change things in a way that better suits their needs instead of complaining and putting out this pho-secessionist bs. ''Oh, our neighbors over there in that big down ain't like us folk over here in our smaller towns so we will villianize them and make them out to be mad men.
Fact is California is big enough to dwarf any number of other states and even other countries economically. There are jobs there and that is attractive to both conservative and liberal workers. The states history of electoral choices strongly reflects it's citizens ability to elect both liberal and conservative governors and legislators.

One nice thing is that if you work here, you get paid more. That means more Social Security and Medicare -- along with bigger IRAs and 401Ks -- which you can take to other states when you retire. A California dollar goes a little farther in Iowa.
People make do. It's not frickin' Venezuela. Yet.
