I recently moved to California. Before i moved, people asked me "why are you moving there, its so bad?". Now that I'm here, i understand it less. The state is beautiful. There is so much to do.

I know the cost of living is high, and people think the gun control laws are ridiculous (I actually think they are reasonable, for the most part). There is a guy I work with here that says "the policies are dumb" but can't give me a solid answer on what is so bad about it.

So, what is it that California does (policy-wise) that people hate so much?

It's not "too hot." You're spoilt and don't know what "too hot" actually means.

    Shut up. I live in Phoenix so I think I know too hot, but I agree with the above- it being over the top hot here does not mean no other place can be too hot. I tend to think anything over 100 is too hot, just because we routinely go well beyond does not take away from the too hotness of 105, for example.

    We get those temps on occasion here in the Midwest as well, except it's not dry here, so it feels even hotter. This year we got lucky and had a drought for a month or so and it was cooler because of the Canadian wild fire smoke.
