California is a mess. Highest population. highest poverty %, highest taxes. A total mess.

This makes sense and I understand why the rural cities would want it, but its not going to happen.

If California is a mess I'm not sure how one would define West Virginia or Mississippi.

It has issues being such a large, populous, and wealthy state. In many respects California and its wealth inequality is a microcosm of the country. Yet, people keep moving there, Florida, and Texas while the northeast and midwest stagnate or decline in population in recent decades.
