Is this really a possibility considering how right the Republican party has gone?

Lying about election fraud, attacking gay rights, trans rights, constantly shifting culture wars, attacking welfare regardless of need, complaining about big government while supporting large military budgets, being anti environment, the list goes on forever. There's no way people are going to trade that for a potential reduction of homeless. A problem because of complex housing cost issues brought on by captialism, why would a Republican led CA help?

This article also said that CA has one of the highest welfare dependencies but it's not even in the top 10. I wonder if they used raw dollars instead of per capita.

Edit

I can't help myself to add to my previous comment. You think the population of CA would give up abortion rights by electing republicans? Jesus the stupidty of the author of this article

It also kind of hard not to look at the chart below and not wonder which was better for the debt "The New Deal" or "Reaganomics"

My biggest fear is how angry I'm becoming at Republicans and how they are even engineers, people who based their career on data and yet they are here on this site.

I'm so scared I'll do something stupid one day.

That's one of the most bitter "articles" I've read. Did someone steal his lollipop?

It feels odd to read a political text where he wants "everyone to be happy" and "join us" and at the same time telling all the voters are idiots, should be punished from voting incorrectly and should be subjugated under his idealism.

What kind of logic is that?
