Businesses submit the majority of taxes going to the government. How do you all not know how taxes work?
There comes a point when people in a geographic region wonder what the point of having a government above it is for.
IKR? California has nearly 40 million people in it, meanwhile this stupid assfuck of a "president" and most of his cult have California Derangement Syndrome and normal people have to hear about how much all these idiots hate what is probably the most important and profitable state in the nation.
The biggest threat to California is the president and his administration.
At what point are americans going to decide they’ve had enough. Clearly not yet. Will it take an american nuke dropped on an american city by an american president in an american false flag?
99% sheep 1% balls.
They'll never believe it if dear leader tells them not to.
You know as well as I do, they'll have enough when it's too late, as predicted.
"taken out of context" what context, pray tell, makes the President saying this ok
We need our own army. Clearly we can't trust the federal government to protect us.

It's been made clear that Republicans have become actively hostile to their own supposed countrymen. The National Guard units ultimately just siphon state resources into the federal military, and every blue state should be preparing for the worst by expanding their state guards.
If nothing else, there is a sudden glut of military-trained individuals who now have a chip on their shoulder for being unjustly fired. The Blue States should make a point of preemptively scouting and hiring on everyone who has been tossed out of the Federal government. Military, domestic, all of them. Their skills will be needed to make the machinery of the Blue States to run smoothly.
