The Oroville dam evacuation last week was a nightmare that stopped early. It could have been really really bad. The coffer dam was only feet of erosion away from collapse. We're talking about 30 more minutes and it wouldn't have been fixable anymore and a quarter cubic mile of water heading for Sacramento, destroying every house on the way South. 200,000 people had to run for it, but its better than 10% of them drowning and 50,000 injured.
Why did this happen? The short answer is Jerry Brown, the governor, is more interested in showy projects than maintenance of critical infrastructure. We hear about the Train To Nowhere, and his promise to launch satellites to study global warming using California tax dollars. Not protect our water supply. He's got an expensive plan to replace ObummerDontCare, since the provider companies are bailing on it.
California is ungovernable. Dividing the state into several new ones would save us, so it won't be done. Moonbeam loves power, and shitting all over everyone to keep his pals in Silicon Valley and Hollywood, billionaires who preach communism without following through, he doesn't need the rest of the state blocking his mania. He's clearly senile or evil because 200,000 people got screwed and he still won't show his face. We think he is an evil D1cK.
As I see it, having studied all this for 20 years, the USA is looking at Balkanization. The Balkans are the home of Yugoslavia, six small countries of people who hated each other passionately but ruled over by a terrifying dictator named Tito, and I don't mean Jackson. When Tito died, Yugoslavia restored their borders, armed up, and went to town on each other with mass killings. I doubt we'll come to that, exactly, but I could easily see the Left Coast becoming a Communist Country, invite in China, which then brings in its own security, which then starts killing them off with guards and drones like that one scene in Terminator. And since I know a bunch of Chinese people I know they consider EVERYONE competition for resources so its not racism that drives the genocide. Its just resource wars like always. Doped up California hippies are easy targets. Same sort of thing as happened in Bosnia would happen here, given half a chance.
Rural California, where I live, is all about the agriculture. While the Left Coast controls the ports, except San Diego and Eureka, both of which need work for proper high volume shipping, and Sacramento and Stockton, which could be blockaded by the Bay getting shut by greedy communists. Communism is a cult. It doesn't last because Pol Pot is the best example of true Communism. He killed half his country, to purify its vision. That's what would happen here if Moonbeam got his way, and his most extreme billionaire backers. The Saul Linsky Zealots like #antifa are the true face of California communism. Its all about rioting, racism, and murder. Its political.
Dealing with those killers sounds like a strong argument for guns and prepping, but that's incorrect. Moving away from them, far enough that they will face the full wrath of California's weather, which wants to kill all humans much of the time (despite what you have heard). So distance is a fantastic defense against #antifa. Rural living, done correctly and with proper perimeter defense warnings, means these urban murder-hobos are not able to reach you. The smarter answer, once you get away from the murder-hobo cities, is that the Left Coast has only a couple powerplants, no water supply except salt, and very little food (mostly south of Gilroy). They're the same idiots who think they can grow magic trees for free stuff, and voted for Bernie Sanders. The downside of rural areas is since communism is a kind of cancer, it eats its neighbors. It starts denying resources to the distant parts of the body (the state) to keep itself happy. Cancer is selfish, and breeds fast making more of itself, which is also selfish. The Left Coast is cancer, only the selfish cells are evil people. Isolating the evil by creating a new body (a state) which contains the evil with no ability to steal from its neighbor (us), could save the rest of the body. Losing Hollywood and Silicon Valley is not a tragedy. They don't pay much taxes, they don't employ many people, and they're not as important as agriculture, which makes way more money. Also, we don't need more immigrants. We have enough workers here. The naturalized citizens already know this. They don't want more competition driving down their wages. They've got a mortgage, after all, and the governor tried to drown their kids. I wonder if they'll still vote Democrat after this?
Its ironic, but more important than guns is a good wood stove so when the power goes out in the winter, you don't freeze to death. More important than guns is a mountain bike so you can ride to the market for groceries if there's no gasoline. The communists at the coast would totally tax the everloving hell out of fuel to pay for their fun. Musk is facing autoworkers union at his Tesla plant in Fremont/Milpitas, so he'll close the place and shift production elsewhere, to places like Reno which is a non-union town. He's already building a plant there. The Left Coast is the Bernie Sanders kind of Communists. Filled with doped up dreamers, no idea how to pay for it, or that it shouldn't just be given to them because they were born. That's the most common reason I hear from them. "You should give me everything because I was born!". Yeah, you can imagine what I think of that when I smirk back. It is worth remembering that this same coastline was overfished, then the sharks started eating people who started surfing in the same murky water as sea lions swim through, which look a lot like a person on a surfboard to a shark attacking from below. Surfing on the California coast is suicidal.
Having plenty of food in your pantry is key. Having a backup that can keep you safe and warm despite the lights going out sometimes is key. Not living directly below a dam that can drown you is key, even if that dam provides most of the agriculture water. Normal recommended maintenance would have prevented the problem, but Brown is either incompetent or evil. That's a question which won't matter if my state gets split off from the Left Coast. If they can't hurt us anymore, because their votes aren't in my state, we matter again, and we can save ourselves from their predations.
