WHAT

CA is NOT EVEN in the top 10...Ohhh I get it now....the NE erg New England has the bulk of the BAD BAD states to live in....all those Liberal Utopian Social Democracies are TOOOO EXPENSIVE for the old folks to live in...
The other cluster is in the midwest rust belt..of Ill, WI & MN...post industrial states where the UNIONS have created a paradise for workers...only the retired WORKERS can't afford to live there....
OHHHHH WELLL..for those retirees they can just say FK IT I am moving to Florida..land of SUN SHINE and LOW TAXES...ADIOS to TAXES and SNOW...
I don't know by what measures many of youse BOYZ would consider this state of affairs..But if the State promises one a better place to live through Liberal policies and the people who have lived, worked and have now retired CAN'T even afford to live in the place where they spent their lives . It has to be considered to be a FAILED MODEL..of economics and government.
