My infatuation with California is barely eclipsed by my love of the United States of America.And my infatuation is pretty intense.I’ve known for a long time that I could make less money and live higher on the proverbial hog in at least 40 other states if not more. California has a high cost of living, enough red tape to go from here to Alpha Centauri and back 30 or so times, the Sacramento Kings, and 39 million people. It is such a deep blue that if you’re red at times it can seem as if you’re turning purple from the political suffocation.
