Its weird how when you think of North America you have Mexico, Canada, United States, and California. When are they going to make it so you need a pass port to get in/out of California?

+ 1000 I have seriously considered moving to NV. Despite me and wife making pretty decent money, we still can't get ahead living here in cali. I've already priced out homes in LV and I can't believe how "affordable" homes are compared to cali. Makes me sick!

You speak the troof my friend! 100-150k and my buddy pays like around 1k a month for a brand new 3br house in Henderson, LMAO thats my rent for my 2bedroom apartment Here in FRESNO!!!!

It's either Cali or Nevada for me and the wifey after she finishes graduate school, I lived back East and I hated the weather. Cali sun has spoiled me and NV the only thing similar.

I have relatives that live there and the food is soooo cheap, they don't even cook anymore LOL! Cheap a$$ Filipino restaurants FTW!!!

"NICE ENTERTAINMENT" I know what you mean!!!!

no one will get arrested...

but, the price's of TV's will go up due to "having to make compliant to environmental law's..."

People need better things to do... you wonder why california is broke...
