Turns out all that happened was the rich benefitted and the poor suffered. Who'da thought?

The problem with California is that while they have a massive Democratic majority, they have absolutely no intent of acting like the social welfare alternative Democrats are nationally claiming to be.
Democrats have full power in California, yet it's a place full of poverty and homelessness, where poor people are screwed over hard, where housing initiatives are literally destroyed, and "undesirables" are soft-quarantined in Skid Row.
California is a place where the rich benefit and the poor suffer. Democrats chose to make that happen, and they choose to perpetuate it. Progressive efforts in California amount to nothing but lip-service, it's a blue-painted right-wing state. The only conservative things it rejects is religion.
