Could California be split up into 6 states?

Billionaire Wants To Break Up California Into 6 States.

http://sourcefed.com/billionaire-wan...into-6-states/

Silicon Valley enthusiast, and venture capitalist Tom Draper is known for backing incredible companies such as Hotmail, Tesla Motors, and Skype. Now he’s backing a new proposal: Breaking up California into 6 separate states.

Draper feels a large state such as California would be better served by smaller governments. Roger Salazar, a spokesmen for the campaign stated:

“It’s important because it will help us create a more responsive, more innovative and more local government, and that ultimately will end up being better for all of Californians. The idea … is to create six states with responsive local governments – states that are more representative and accountable to their constituents.”

The campaign has gathered over 800,000 signatures needed to place the measure onto the November 2016 ballot, but opponents say that it has little chance making it past both the voters and Congress. Steven Maviglio, a Democratic political strategist who has formed the group OneCalifornia with GOP strategist Joe Rodota to fight Draper’s plan stated:

“This is a colossal and divisive waste of time, energy, and money that will hurt the California brand. It has zero chance of passage. But what it does is scare investment away… at a time when the Governor is leading us to an economic comeback.”

Draper’s plan splits the world’s eighth-largest economy along geographic lines creating the states.

Silicon Valley would include the valley along with the San Francisco Bay Area, Jefferson would encompass the northernmost region, North California would encompass the state capital of Sacramento, while South California would be made up of San Diego and the eastern suburbs of Los Angeles. Los Angeles would be part of a state called West California.

Central California would take Fresno, Bakersfield, and Stockton and would also be the largest of the six.

I lived there for a good chunk of my childhood. It's definitely not what it once was, that's for damn sure.
I visited a couple years ago on business. Couldn't believe the prices for everything.
My cab driver was a ****ing engineer making 6 figures. Said he and his wife both needed at least two jobs to afford their condo. I told the dude to move and he literally looked at me like I was a commie.
I told him that having a nice view was only worth so much.

Can we just give California to Mexico? They can try to solve their problems together and not bring down the rest of the United States

I told him that having a nice view was only worth so much.
My dad is a native Californian, and he says he can never go back to live. Like you say, nice place to visit, don't want to live there.

My cousin, at the time an unemployed electrician, came out for a visit a few years ago. We were sitting in the backyard at my firepit, and he was marveling at the "mansion" I lived in...it's a 1600 square foot Celebrity home, but it has a huge back yard. He said that my house would probably go for 750K out where he is because of the size of the property. That blew my damn mind.

Needless to say, it ain't worth any where NEAR that here in Nebraska. I told him to move out here, we have jobs, the cost of living is reasonable and the people are generally good. He laughed and said he could never leave Cali.

What the hell ever...
