A new report from the United Ways of California shows that 35% of households across the state – more than 3.8 million – don’t earn enough to cover basic living expenses.

    What has any Southern California Republican done or proposed to lower the cost of living? Southern California has the best and most desirable climate in the entire world. The cost of living there reflects that. The only other places with a similar climate are hard core Muslim theocracies (see Casablanca).

      Oh so there isn’t a cost of living crisis, it’s just that only rich people are allowed to live there because of the nice climate?

      WOW lol

      Also lol at most desirable climate in the world. Let me guess - you live there?

        Still waiting to hear what southern CA republicans have done for the housing crisis. Rather than answer my principal question, you asked another question. Unacceptable.

          What have southern CA democrats done for the housing crisis?

          Created it. Let it get out of control. Take no responsibility for it. Do nothing to try and fix it.

          Don’t ask what republicans might do, ask what democrats have already done.

        I live here. Shit’s better here than any red state I’ve lived in that’s for fucking sure.

        Do you live here? Or are you just another conservative who shits on my state without having ever stepped foot in this place.

            I live in LA. You can find apartments here for cheap if you look.

            The whole reason southern California and the Bay Area are both expensive, is because they are some of the most desirable places to live in the entire country.

            Simple as that.
